Benefits of Partnering with WITgrip®

Ergonomics

Positioning a part of a device's screen over the side of the wrist allows for a neutral viewing position of that part of the screen. It is therefore possible to see the screen without strain of the forearm, arm, shoulder, or neck. Thus allowing for viewing for as long as we want, even for some hours on a long train journey or flight. It is possible to watch feature length films, catch up on your favourite series, and play games. Usable as a full smartphone with a full keyboard, larger devices can be placed on the side of the wrist; with countless possibilities for software applications.

Sleek & Discreet

Worn over the side of the wrist in a neutral viewing position , allows for naturally easy and ergonomic readability and interactivity; and an ability to manage alerts, mails, messages or alarms without noticeable effort.

Camera integration allows for a unique, easier to use camera position, providing unrivaled control through using the joints of the arm as a natural stabilizing gimbal; allowing steady video, panning, and positioning for shots (i.e. when trying to get those shots of the stage over the heads of those in front of you).

Capture Video & Pictures

Secure contactless payment

Secure contactless payment made easy by the ergonomic positioning of the device, incorporating the camera and chip in the device strap or clasp. No need to twist your wrist when making contactless payments, whilst still holding your coffee or shopping. This can also be applied to secure entry into your workplace, or a train station, by a simple pass without shifting or juggling all of the things that you are carrying.

Video conferencing

With the camera being on the same side as the screen, even extended video calling is more comfortable and becomes more natural, by using the joints of the forearm to allow for steady prolonged interaction. Try it for yourself, our research shows 100% clear and readily noticeable benefits.

Remote Control

A full mobile phone or computer with all of its features, whether as a much smaller 3 inch device or as a large wrap around flexible screen device, can now be worn comfortably on your wrist. The possibilities include home/ office/ car/ banking/ payment/ security... and all opportunities to interact with the many technologies around us. We have a remote control attached to us, which is no longer remote, incorporating military grade security and encryption. Encouraging and driving personal network integration, by providing a persistent, personal platform capable of linking technology surrounding our everyday lives. A major step in human-technology interaction.

Future Flexible Screens

Major mobile phone manufactures are already developing large wraparound flexible screen technology. WITgrip provides essential comfort and support required to interact with such devices. The patent protection for WITgrip covers all possible means of securing the device (or part of the device) to be worn over the side of the wrist. When you want to touch the screen to interact with the device, it will comfortably stay in place and the screen will not slide around the wrist. You can use your device on your wrist, without having to take it off when you want to use an app, make a call, respond to an e-mail, take a photo, etc…
