Sgnl technology provides an amazing opportunity to transmit signal sup to the end of people fingers using vibration. You need only to connect the strap to your smartphone and you will easily communicate even in conditions of strong ambient noise, just by applying finger to your ear. Mean while, Sgnl performs the regular duties of a traditional watch band.
Sgnl Bracelet General Features and the Sales Start
It is expected that the novelty will be available for sale in October this year, and its price will be around $314. For those who pre-order, the price for Sgnl band will be on $70 cheaper.
After launching their project on Kickstarter, the Innomdle Lab employees have done an impressive amount of work, creating and experiencing several varieties of Sgnl bracelets. Long-time testing allowed developing the ultimate model. The final version of the Sgnl bracelet got the current shape.
People can adjust the strap depending on the width of their wrist as it is done with standard watch bracelets. This month developers run beta testing with potential buyer involvement, which will be the last stage of testing before Sgnl mass production.
The use of physical principles of vibrations allowed the idea’s authors to create a unique product. Now you can either stop looking for a quiet place for talking on your smartphone or getting it out of the pocket. The Sgnl bracelet transmits a vibration signal of an incoming call, after which you can press your finger to the ear and start talking.
Sgnl provides the same level of hearing as if you talk in person. In addition, there is no any external headset, the communication takes place in a tete-a-tete mode. A passer-by will never hear your conversation. For example, external noises produced by a large company leave minimal impact on the connection quality.

The bracelet’s body is resistible for a high level of moisture and dust. You can even put it under a stream of tap water. The miniature battery’s capacity makes the device work for a week in the standby mode and up to 4 hours of continuous conversation. The battery charging takes only an hour.
Sgnl is compatible with Android and iOS operating systems (version 4.4 and 8 respectively), and the signal is transmitted via Bluetooth. An accelerometer is included in the model package.
