Wearable technology is a growing market with new smart rings and other jewelry constantly being added to the collection. The latest to join the ranks is Blinq – a line of smart rings that are seeking funding via Kickstarter to move forward with production and release.
Blinq's range of rings will alert you to a message on smartphone with either a simple flash or a gentle vibration. However, their most unique feature is a panic switch.
If you find yourself in a difficult situation, you can use a unique preset sequence of taps to send a distress message to all your emergency contacts. Think of it as a more elegant version of Life Alert.
Everything is programmed via Blinq's smartphone app - the intention of the wearable is to get your face off your phone screen and live your life. The rings will even track your fitness and are completely waterproof, so you can wear them even when you're in the shower or at the beach.
