Top Kickstarters of the month - May 2016

2016-05-19
hello everybody I'm crystal Laura and today we'll be taking a little peek into the future of technology from fingerprint secured wallets to headphones that train your brain to be less stressed this is Kickstarter's of the month so we're all very aware of mobile payment systems like Samsung pay Android pay and Apple pay and all these systems were implemented to replace the wallet well it's been a while now and it doesn't seem that wallets are going anywhere so how do we solve the main problem that wallets have like how insecure they are or how easy it is to misplace them well it appears that revel Incorporated has come up with a solution is called cashew wallet wallets are still vulnerable to theft and with so many important things living inside like driver's licenses credit cards and even cash why hasn't there been a way where only you have access to it and is always by your side so with cashew wallet these problems are answered cashew wallet is a world's first wallet with a fingerprint reader to ensure only you can have access to your wallet and is always connected to your smartphone using bluetooth to ensure your wallet is always by your side there's an electronic latch that unlocks when a fingerprint is recognized and if somebody tries to tamper with the latch you'll automatically be sent a notification on your phone alerting you of this however the goal is for this to never happen as when you're out and you start to walk away from your wallet you'll be sent a notification informing you that we left it behind also if you're home you just can't seem to find a wallet anywhere it has a fine my wallet type feature where your wallet will actually ring to help you find where it is although this while it does need to hold a charge amazingly you'll only need to recharge this wall that every nine months and it can be fast charged right now the creators of cashew wallet are seeking a forty thousand dollar goal and with about 20 days to go there at thirty thousand dollars and of course will link to these in the description below next up we have something that I'm actually really excited about because this is something that I which had existed for years it's called hub by echo audio the first high five Wi-Fi hub for headphones and speakers hub lets multiple users stream high res audio together in real time so let's say you're watching television with your friends you want to use headphones to listen for whatever reason maybe more immersive sound or it's late at night or maybe what you're watching had some bad language so you just simply pick up one of these wireless hubs plugging your headphones and that's it instantly you'll be listening to your television in hi-fi settings it's capable of pushing out 96 kilohertz audio at 24-bit in real time you want your friends can be listening to the same audio source but with different hubs using ultra-low latency Wi-Fi technology and it's not just for TVs you can use it for PCs gaming online streaming really any source and what's great about having multiple hubs is that each can be tuned according to each person creating a personalized high quality experience for each user if we're watching a movie together I can have my hub set to seventy percent volume while yours could be fifty percent or I could add some extra trouble in mind while you crank up the bass echo audio was seeking a goal of 100,000 dollars for hub and even with a week left to go they've gathered up 180 thousand dollars and now let's move on to the next Kickstarter project we often say we live in a very connected world where at any moment we can contact another person no matter what especially with our smartphones but we never really think of these two other groups of people little kids and older people this next project is called le and it's a little device that's designed to be very simple for anybody to communicate to family members and let's face it lots of grandparents have trouble keeping up with new technology and younger kids usually aren't ready to be able to have a device that can access any website or call any person so what happens there's just no communication and staying connected to your family is important with jobs requiring so much travel and distance so Italy is designed to replace something like a landline phone it has a large touchscreen speaker and remote that sits in a housing that can be placed anywhere around the house young kids can use illy to make calls in a closed network without a parent's help or even permission since all contacts and permissions have been set previously by the parent it's even simple enough for grandparents to use for adults they have a worry-free way for their kids to stay close to their family members without having them bar their phones and then who knows what they'll do with it with illy you can record video messages text messages and even drop pictures or just talk as if it was a skype call right now in sin Z the company who is making italy has received 75 thousand dollars of their $100,000 goal but now let's talk about something this little more familiar digital picture frames but with a canvas we have in our experience like no other it's a cord free art display and streaming platform that connects to your smartphone a canvas features an app that uses curated art stations to string new artwork from a variety of different artists and genres or even your own family photos it has an ambient light sensor that helps automatically control the brightness of the picture to make it feel like an actual photo on the wall rather than just a digital screen it's a 23 inch full HD display that comes in different style frames as well definitely seems like a cool idea but what makes a canvas of one of the most interesting Kickstarter projects is the fact that it charges itself to keep a canvas Wire free and hassle-free the company needed to find a way for it to charge all by itself literally while you're sleeping at night eight campuses power cord will automatically lower from behind the frame and fall into magnetic charging trade on the base of your wall then when it's all charged up the motorized cable will automatically slide back up into the frame it's very strange but it works and that feature alone gets a canvas on this list of top Kickstarter's of may the company is looking for one hundred thousand dollars and so far have thirty thousand dollars pledged and last we have the world's first EEG headset that trains your brain to cope with stress is called mellow mind my brain technologies the creators of mellow mind say that sixty-two percent of americans have reported that they have tried to reduce stress levels but only thirty-seven percent have been successful there's a lot of downsides to traditional relaxation methods the biggest being its temporary effect but with mellow mind you can easily train your brain to handle stress more effectively once you put on dimelo mind headset the EEG sensors begin reading your brains activity mellow minds will then generate an audio soundscape a response to your brain waves in real-time and according to your relaxation level the music will be adapted to you you don't have to do anything except just listen to the sounds present and mellow mind will do the rest and after a while your brain will adapt and strengthen itself to learn to relax and finally deal with stress much better the world is definitely excited about this because my brain technologies was only seeking 56 thousand dollars but they already reached 150 thousand dollars with almost a full month left to go so what do you guys think of these Kickstarter projects leave a comment below and let us know which one you think is the coolest make sure to check
