The O by The O

The O is a small gadget that can be attached or placed on essential objects that alerts you via your smartphone when you leave something behind. It can be sewn, chained, or simply placed into objects such as keys, wallet, and chargers. The O is light and waterproof, with 18 months worth of battery life. As such, it is designed to be as little of an intrusion upon daily life as possible, while still providing a much wanted service. The O works mainly using distance detection, sending an alert once you get outside of a certain distance away from an item it is attached to. However, the O also detects whether you are inside a home, at a party, or have checked items into a coat check. The aim is to make a product that only alerts you when absolutely necessary, based not just on a pure physical metric, but also on your context and situation.
