meet ping the world's smallest GPS locating device it's tiny so you can stick it on your kids your pets your bike your luggage or anything important you don't want to lose it can be found miles away and lasts up to five months on a single charge there are a lot of tracking devices out there that are supposed to make it easy to find things so most of us aren't using them why because Bluetooth devices only work within 35 feet of your phone you can't find your kids if they're playing outside or your luggage if it's lost halfway across the country and these GPS devices which have a much larger range are big clunky need to be constantly recharged and have large monthly fees ping is reinventing the locating device Bluetooth cellular and GPS for maximum range extremely long battery life waterproof and durable all together in a tiny affordable versatile solution one more thing ping is the only device with a little check-in button that lets your kids send their locations to friends or families with a simple push and if they're in trouble they can hold that button down to send you a distress signal so that health can be contacted ping the first truly useful affordable and simple personal GPS locator sleep it's one of the most important things to our lives a lot of wearables track sleep but tracking sleep doesn't necessarily mean improved sleep but what if we could change that what if we could create a wearable which not only track your sleep but improve your sleep at the same time at them we're doing just that and we want to work with you the Kickstarter community to bring this project to life we sleep for one third of our lives but it affects us around the clock the benefit of falling asleep faster is that you can get more out of every day I think the most exciting thing is that we can change people's lives them helps you to fall asleep quicker and this will ultimately more sleep across the night the development of them is really based on a lot of excellent university research that has shown a better way of improving sleep but for the first time now spin allows this to be translated into the home environment start by placing stem on any of your fingers before you go to bed then we'll then accurately determine when you fall asleep to the nearest minute the algorithm then implements a retraining program to allow people to fall asleep more quickly that has been used by researchers for the last 10 years this is a simple behavioral approach to improve your sleep but for the first time Tim allows us to be carried out in your own home this is a way to teach people to sleep better and from our own research we know that it works them is about more than helping you to get the flight quicker then can also help you take the perfect power nap research from NASA found that their astronauts from 34 percent better having taken power at all the secret to a perfect power nap is sleeping for exactly 10 minutes five minutes won't do much for you and sleeping for 20 minutes will leave you feeling groggy once you wake up the incredible accuracy of sim of knowing when you fall asleep to the minute allows you to take the perfect count up for the first time simmer also collects your sleep data and provide your asleep school so that over time you can see how your sleep is improving here at dammit was been heads down building for some time we're a team of researchers designers and engineers we collectively have built products that people around the world use and love a most recent invention was the retailer which receives worldwide acclaim at them we've reinvented the wearable for Fleet our research is based on a peer review evidence space this is more than a step forward this is a quantum leap for how will you sleep technologies we want to our design to represent the ability to disconnect and dream we wanted to engineer something that you forgot you're wearing we've done just that putting the components into such a small and light package fina challenge we've gone through hundreds of iteration we've given our 3d printer a serious workout with every iteration we've learned something new and it's definitely improved our design but journey so far has been thoroughly rewarding I'm really looking forward to seeing what's become we would love to work with the Kickstarter community as we go through final design considerations for this wearable this is your chance to be part of something where we change the face of wearable technologies forever we'd love you to be part of us and you can do that by clicking the grand button thank you you you and energy p ginger you too me you me too meaning mmm you thank you in range how high can you ollie how fast can you push how long was that last hill you bought have you ever dreamt of being able to track your tricks with ride blocks all this is possible ride block is easy to set up and connects directly to your bunk and ride block is designed to provide no compromise and experience it shockproof lightweight so you won't have to work even when doing the gnarliest trip and water resistance so that you can use it in any condition ride block tracked all your tricks as you skate unless you check them in real time ride block measures you're riding speed the height of your ollie the length of your gap the pop of your trick the precision of your flip and even your airtime nailing a trick is always tough every slight movement to make the difference ride blog helps you study your movements and understand what you need to improve so that you can finally land that trick then you can prove it by sharing it with your friends right block also lets you challenge your friends across the globe for example in a game of skate this way you can compare tricks and ride block teach the score for the first time ever you can prove tricks to friends and different locations with ride block you can also check out new spot and see what tricks have been landed there before so you can compare your trek and raise the bar with never been done trick right block also lets you see where your friends are skating and what they're up to ride block lets you relive your sessions because it captures all of your tricks and you can share all this info to your friends in social media hey guys I be making long way to make white dog happen we're both engineers and skateboarders at the same time but from where our journey started skateboarding wasn't easy we come from India and learning to skate over there is a challenge challenge is a record of skateboarding but is against yourself or against a friend like me Anna be so challenging each other at the highest kickflip or the longest ollie but we didn't really have a way to accurate detail for the winner war this is how we created an inventor right Blanc skateboarding is for everyone and our dream is to connect a community of skateboarders and had them improve and learn new tricks right blocks can truly make this happen we've been working on this project for the past two years and we are currently in Los Angeles working with local skateboarders to collect feedback and the final design right last went to many different stages of development we needed to make it small and lightweight enough so that it wouldn't affect your performance but also resolute enough so that it can withstand any trip but the support of a partners make an LA and plastic labs we finalized the last status of the pre-production with the device that is both reliable emphasize it's a dream come true to bring white box to everyone we need your help to start manufacturing of the hardware that opposites white blocks and be the first to join the moment you I you
