If you are looking for a way to connect the digital world and your real-life environment you might be interested in a new device called the Fizzly smart tag.
Fizzly has been designed to detect motion and can be combined with its own iOS and Android smartphone application to help you trigger events and notifications depending on your preferences and needs. Watch the video after the jump to learn more about the Fizzly project and see it in action.
The Fizzly project is currently over on the Kickstarter crowd funding website looking to raise $49,000 in pledges to make the jump from concept to production. Its creators explain :
“Fizzly is designed to be paired with every device compatible with Bluetooth 4.0: mobile phones, tablets or PCs. This means that Fizzly can become the physical controller of a wide range of smart appliances, services and social networks already on the market, it’s up to you to choose what to do with it. We have successfully tested Fizzly with some of them, obtaining for example a motion-triggered HUE Light interaction, and you can expect a growing range of compatible gizmos in the future, thanks to the Open Fizzly APIs.
Fizzly is a stylish smart tag that detects movements, events and actions: just wear or place it on anything you like and pair it with your smartphone or tablet, then choose one of the Fizzly apps on your device and step into a totally new experience.
Fizzly will track motion while an app on your smart device will do the rest, creating new amazing kinds of interactions.
Imagine, for example, to track your skateboarding tricks and share your score and achievements with friends. Imagine to be alerted when important things or people get too far from your range. Imagine inventing your own mobile game, playable just waving your hands, like you would do on a Wii. Fizzly lets you do that. As you can see, Fizzly is not just a smart tag: it is the first creative device that offers you limitless possibilities!”
