PHOENIX — Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio has started “Pedal Vision,” a program in which inmates pedal stationary bikes to generate electricity for television sets. The bikes are customized to turn on connected TV sets once inmates at Phoenix’s Tent City Jail pedal enough to generate 12 volts of electricity. An hour of pedaling equals an hour of television.
Arpaio said inmates will be able to watch television only if they choose to pedal.
