What
is
Fin?
Fin
is
a
tiny
hardware
product
that
you
can
wear
on
the
thumb
of
your
hand
as
a
ring
and
it
will
make
your
whole
palm
as
a
touch
interface.
Fin
is
a
Bluetooth
enabled
device
that
we
can
connect
to
other
digital
world
gadgets
like
Smartphones,
Smart
TVs,
Automobiles,

automation
devices.
Fin
reads
different
gestures
from
your
palms
and
its
corresponding
values
control
your
connected
devices.
It
uses
smart
Low
Energy
Technology
as
it
uses
Bluetooth.4
Technology
for
Communication

FIN
is
now
ready
to
go
live
after
our
consistent
hard
working
for
over
one year.
We
want
the
Fin
to
be
more

just
a
prototype,
but
we
can't
do
it
alone.
Your
contributions
will
help
us
make
Fin
to
a
fully
finished
reality.
Fin is going live on Indiegogo because it’s a great way to reach out to creative developers,
wearable tech pioneers, enthusiastic early adopters, and premium platforms.
We’ve come up with hundreds of ideas for applications to integrate with Fin, but we know that
we haven’t even scratched the surface of what is possible.
We want you, the developer, to propel the wearable tech movement forward by creating entire
new categories of applications with Fin and complementary technologies.
We want you, wearable tech pioneers, to collaborate with us to provide consumers with an
ever-increasing web of tightly integrated wearable technology products that enhance
productivity, learning, and social interaction.
We want you, the early tech adopter, to use your influence as trend-setters to show the world
the benefits of a smarter, interactive and more connected world.
And so we’re making available – today – for people who are passionate about wearable
technology and want to help us create something special.

We
are
always
looking
for
ways
to
make
Fin
refined
and
better.
These
ideas
are
in
the
process
of
being
confirmed.
Ø Prototypes
are
being
tested.
Ø Adding
feature
like
Authentication.
Ø Offering
a
variety
of
colors-‐designs.
Ø Looking
into
customizable
designs
for
personalization.

Ø We
are
currently
testing
metal
bodies
for
Fin.
Ø Including
Re-‐chargeable
battery.
Specs
Ø Fin
should
come
with

Ø Battery:
Polymer

;
more
than
one

Ø Sensors:
Fin
can
track
accurate
movement
of
your
thumb
on
the
palm
also
recognize
each
part
of
your
finger
where
you
are
touching.
Ø Communication:
Bluetooth
2.1+
EDR
and
4.0
Ø Compatibility:
iOS,
Android,
Windows
Phones.
Use
cases
Ø Thumb
is
accessible
to
anywhere
in
the
palm
and
its
more
natural
too.
So
wearing
a
Fin
will
make
your
palm
as
a
touch
interface
that
enables
the
people
to
interact
with
smart
phones
[Dial
Numbers,
Attending
calls,
SMS,
Social
media,
Taking
Quick
Notes
etc.]
especially
for
blind
people
since
they
sense
the
world
through
touch.
8.
Ø Fin
can
control
your
smart
TV,
to
just
change
the
channels,
control
sounds
by
mere
natural
finger
swipes.
Ø Fin
can
control
your
car
from
being
your
cars
key
to
controlling
your
phone
while
driving,
navigate
your
maps,
receive
calls
and
read
messages,
change
music,
and
other
car
utilities
just
by
finger
swipe
without
even
taking
your
hands
out
of
the
steering
wheel
there
by
not
distracting
yourself
from
driving.
Ø A
big
problem
in
all
the
wearable
is
the
input
of
Instructions.
In
the
much-‐Hyped
Google
glass,
a
voice
instruction
and
a
touch
pad
on
the
wearable
is
provided,
but
both
the
input
methods
are
cumbersome
in
odd
situations.
Integration
with
FIN
will
be
ideal
for
these
wearable
as
FIN
can
control
the
device
with
much
ease
and
accuracy.
Ø For
better
entertainment
experience
FIN
can
serve
as
joysticks
in
gaming
industry.
