Product description
IntendiMe is a simple, innovative and versatile system that offers the user a “hearing” experience: in real time the sounds that surroung the user surround go directly on his/her wrist. By subscribing to IntendiMe the user will receive KitMe: the kit consisting of sensors that are applied to sound sources, a smartwatch that vibrates and lights up in real time, and an app that can manage multiple sensors and smartwatches at the same time. A system that can improve the daily life of the user thus making him/her feel independent, free and safe.
Specification and technological peculiarities
Battery life is guaranteed by a dedicated radio protocol with which the sensors communicate with the smart watch. The sensor is able to detect and recognize sounds thanks to a MEMS microphone with Wake On Sound technology and a piezoelectric capsule, thus collecting vibrations.
