A new style of smartwatch has started its journey over on the Indiegogo crowdfunding website today, called the Smartfitty, which has been designed to provide users with a touchscreen watch interface that will link with both Android and iOS devices.
Smartfitty has been designed to provide users with notifications of incoming calls, email, and text messages, as well as iMessages, calendar reminders, together with Twitter and Facebook updates. Watch the video after the jump to learn more.
Features and Functionality
The Smartfitty watch development team explains: “Wouldn’t it be phenomenal if your smartwatch also doubled as an activity monitor? You could track your movements throughout the day and follow your sleep cycle at night. That watch would tell you what little steps you need to make to live healthier and sleep better.”
In addition to its notification capabilities, the Smartfitty aims to integrate a comprehensive suite of health and fitness tracking features. This includes monitoring daily steps, calories burned, and distance traveled. The watch will also offer sleep tracking, providing insights into sleep quality and duration, which can help users make informed decisions about their sleep habits.
Moreover, the Smartfitty is expected to include heart rate monitoring, which is a crucial feature for fitness enthusiasts and those looking to maintain a healthy lifestyle. By keeping track of your heart rate during various activities, you can optimize your workouts and ensure you are exercising within your target heart rate zone.
Development and Future Prospects
The design seems to be in the very early stages of development and is more of a concept on paper than a working prototype at the moment. But it is now looking to raise $100,000 to make the jump from paper to production.
The Smartfitty is the brainchild of Romeo Mendoza and Megan Sedillo. They envision a smartwatch that not only keeps you connected but also helps you lead a healthier life. The team is passionate about creating a device that seamlessly integrates into your daily routine, providing both convenience and valuable health insights.
To achieve their funding goal, the Smartfitty team has outlined several stretch goals and rewards for backers. These include early bird pricing, exclusive color options, and additional features that will be unlocked as more funds are raised. The team is also engaging with potential users to gather feedback and suggestions, ensuring that the final product meets the needs and expectations of its audience.
