Optimal interaction with smart watches: SHIFT strap

Smart watches now contain so many sensors, detectors and modules that they can be used as a personal trainer, pedometer, heart rate monitor and much more. True, while running it is not very convenient to look at smart watches, and even more inconvenient to use them, constant movement interferes. In general, this cannot be called a major problem, but it causes certain inconveniences.

In order to make the interaction with smart watches for athletes even more comfortable, a special strap was invented. The name of this device is quite simple - Shift.

And here is a simple illustration of exactly what problem Shift solves.



The strap is compatible with many watches, the list is given below. The developers tried to make the range of compatible models as large as possible.

The authors of the idea call the advantages of their strap compatibility, minimum weight, high-quality materials, arm / watch optimization, easy to remove and easy to put on.

For different sports, you can use a different type of placement of watches on your hand:

Compatible models

• APPLE - 38mm, 42mm
• PEBBLE - Time, Time Steel, Steel, Classic, Round
• GARMIN - Forerunner® 220, 225, 230, 235, 310XT, 620, 630, 910XT, 920XT, Fenix ​​2, Fenix ​​3, Vivoactive, Epix, Quatix Approach-S2, S4, S5, S6
• SUUNTO - Ambit, Core, Elementum, Essential, Traverse, Vector
• Basis Peak, Moto360, LG G watch, ASUS ZenWatch, Samsung Gear S2 Classic, ++

What is not compatible? In the picture everything is clearly shown.



The developers themselves call themselves a team of "running engineers." Being semi-professional athletes, the authors of the idea know what the athlete needs. As engineers, they know how to implement the right ideas.

And what about the price?

Interestingly, the SHIFT fundraising campaign has already raised more than $ 36,000. In total, you need to raise $ 45,000, and the team has 19 more days to do this.

Kickstarter can now be pre-ordered for just $ 20.
