What's up with a treadmill? Is it so special because it has WiFi? HN rules forbid shallow dismissal. I would only say, adding a WiFi to a random thingy is a weekend project for any engineering company i've worked in, in the most literal sense. Design injection molding enclosure, add relays, motor VFD, rpm sensor, wifi module, wire & screw together. I've done few project for sporting goods makers, and even no-name village factories in China with zero marketing probably ship more goods per months than this treadmill sell in a year.
