Hack Pauses Netflix for Sleeping Fitbit Users

A team of enterprising programmers decided to save you from losing your spot by syncing up Netflix with a viewer's Fitbit fitness tracker to pause programs when the user conks out. The idea comes from programmers Sam Horner, Rachel Nordman, Arlene Aficial, Sam Park and Bogdan Ciuca as part of Netflix Hack Day.
