STUND Watch Does Not Have a Screen or Apps, Makes You Feel Time

STUND Watch Feel Time Kickstarter
The STUND watch has no screen or apps, as it relies on vibrations to make you feel the time instead, unlike smartwatches. Vibrations can be set for customizable intervals, such as 5, 15, 30, 60, or 120 minutes to help people segment their day for maximum productivity, while its 3V coin cell battery CR2032 can last for up to 5-months.



Its face was machined from a solid block of 316L grade stainless steel and the leather wrist straps can easily be swapped using a small screwdriver. STUND measures 41mm in diameter, 7 mm tall, and weighs in at just 50 grams with a genuine leather strap. Available for pre-order now, priced at around $180 USD, with shipments beginning in March 2024. More information here.

[STUND is] a word from the Old Norse language meaning a ‘brief moment in time’. The name we chose for a reflective time piece that does the opposite of everything else and brings awareness back to the present moment,” said its creators.

First Look at Fluid Reality, Haptic Gloves with Small Actuators That Let You Feel Objects in Virtual Reality

First Look at Fluid Reality, Haptic Gloves with Small Actuators That Let You Feel Objects in Virtual Reality

Fluid Reality Haptic Gloves Feel in VR AR
JumpMod lets you feel jumps, while Fluid Reality haptic gloves can be used to touch things in virtual reality. This is accomplished through 160 dynamic haptic feedback actuators in the fingertips of the wireless and lightweight gloves.



If you look inside each one of the gloves, there are high resolution fingerpad arrays for each fingertip, or basically displays for your skin. These are used to imprint tactile images on your skin similar to pixels on a screen. The bubble-like pixel contains a fluid that can stretch and fill when activated. Within each pixel, there is a small electrically controlled pump. Unlike standard pumps, these operate on the principal of electroosmosis, which means they have no moving parts.

The compact nature of the technology allows it to provide better haptic feedback while also minimizing size and complexity. We built this prototype glove using off-the-shelf components like a Raspberry Pi. Fully integrated products have the opportunity to be even more compact and lightweight. Because it’s thin, we used built-in optical hand tracking, and standard Unity integrations,” said the researchers.
