You've put your phone in the silent mode for a meeting and then it
continues to stay in that mode in your pocket as you forget all about
it... What if you had some small remote which could alert you to calls
in the meanwhile? A remote which is always on you, which is almost a
part of you... Enter Smarty Ring.
This latest gadget is the perfect little remote to your smartphone.
It's a ring which comes with a display to showcase all alerts from your
smartphone and control the gadget like a remote. Resembling a plain old
wedding band, the ring looks deceptively simple in design though half
the accessory is made up of a display panel. The hardware buttons are
seamlessly embedded in the ring with a slight elevation.
The Smarty Ring is capable of doing everything from remotely answering or rejecting calls, managing SMS and email alerts, managing your social networking updates etc. You can manage updates from Skype, Facebook, Twitter and Google Hangouts. Apart from informing you of updates, the ring also allows you to perform some other basic functions.
Smarty Ring comes with a clock and can be used as a normal digital watch when not in use. The ring supports functions like a stopwatch, timer and an alarm clock too. Apart from acting as a remote, Smarty Ring can also be used to access your smartphone camera remotely. While not much is still known about the remote adjustments and photo clicking/editing abilities, the camera launch function suggests some advanced camera features too. Smarty Ring also lets the wearer change the smartphone profile, access music and change the phone's volume.
It's all sounds pretty cool but how about security? Smarty Ring has that covered too. Once the ring is synced with your phone, the minute you step beyond 30 meters without the phone, the ring sounds a beep to remind you that you've forgotten something. Also, you can set the ring to sound an alert if you cannot locate the phone. The tone and the volume of the alert can be customized.
The best part about the gadget? It is water-proof! However, the device is still only a ring and a smart ring at that. Naturally it runs on power. The lasting power of the smart-ring is 24 hours. Pretty pitiable considering it isn't exactly convenient to keep charging your ring everytime. However, unlike other wearable gadgets, it might be easier to manage and definitely way more convenient. The ring also comes with a wireless charger as an accessory.
The Smarty Ring is compatible with both, iOS and Android and the
gadget comes with an app to manage syncing. Furthermore, the ring also
acts like an extended security system for your phone. You can sync the
ring to track your smartphone if lost.
The Smarty Ring is still just in the development phase but seems to be a cool gadget.
