1. A system, comprising:
a first plurality of sensors, wherein the first plurality of sensors is associated with a first wrist-worn band configured to be worn by a first user;
a second plurality of sensors, wherein the second plurality of sensors is associated with a second wrist-worn band configured to be worn by a second user;
wherein the first plurality of sensors is configured to sense at least one biometric parameter by each sensor of the first plurality of sensors and produce first biometric information for the first user;
wherein the second plurality of sensors is configured to sense at least one biometric parameter by each sensor of the second plurality of sensors and produce second biometric information for the second user;
a first mobile telephone configured to wirelessly receive the first biometric information, and store the received first biometric information in a memory of the first mobile telephone;
a second mobile telephone configured to wirelessly receive the second biometric information, and store the received second biometric information in a memory of the second mobile telephone;
wherein the first mobile telephone is configured to generate a first display data set for display on the first mobile telephone;
wherein the first mobile telephone is configured to display the first display data set on the first mobile telephone;
wherein the first mobile telephone is configured to obtain a modified first display data set based at least in part on the first biometric information and the second biometric information, the modified first display data set including a first avatar moving a first object and a second avatar moving a second object;
wherein the modified first display data set includes pixel data altered based on changes in the first biometric information and the second biometric information such that the pixel data is correlated with the first biometric information and the second biometric information;
wherein the first mobile telephone is configured to display the pixel data of the modified first display data set on the first mobile telephone;
wherein the second mobile telephone is configured to generate an initial display data set for display on the second mobile telephone;
wherein the second mobile telephone is configured to obtain a modified initial display data set based at least in part on the first biometric information and the second biometric information;
wherein the second mobile telephone is configured to display the modified initial display data set on the second mobile telephone; and
wherein the system is configured to sense at least one biometric parameter from the first user while the first user exercises and at least one biometric parameter from the second user while the second user exercises.
