17 April 2013

Kickstarter has become the breeding ground for some of the most innovative and interesting ideas in modern technology, and there are some that are worth looking into, such as the SmartWallit, Blue Laser Lamp, Stadium HD Headphones, Frits robotic puppet, and the anti-gravity device.

SmartWallit

SmartWallit is an accessory that connects to your iPhone or Android device in order to prevent loss of a wallet.

Using a small device placed inside the wallet, users can connect their wallet to their phone through Bluetooth 4.0, allowing the ability to ring and trace where the wallet is located.

Users can set a distance threshold between the wallet and phone, allowing you to find your wallet using your phone, or visa-versa.
