Snowl, a gadget that will allow you to use your finger as a mouse

A lot of companies are finding an alternative to the traditional mouse. Now we are going to tell you about Pero, a band-shaped mouse that adjusted to your hand to turn it into a mouse.

Now, the startup Cox Space goes one step further by presenting Snowl, a curious gadget that will allow you to control all kinds of devices using the index finger of your hand.

To present this product, and as it has been common in such curious devices, the company has opted for the collective financing platform Kickstarter, where it has reaped overwhelming success.

You just have to see the goal set by the company, which wanted to raise $ 10,000. In just three days they have achieved more than $ 83,000, and that figure does not stop growing. The reason? Snowl’s functionality points to ways to be one of Kickstarter’s big hits.

This is how Snowl works, a mouse that fits your index finger

For starters, Snowl’s operation is really simple. All you have to do is place the gadget on your index finger to use it. Note that it offers Bluetooth connectivity, so you can connect to all kinds of compatible devices. To give you the idea, it works with Android, iOS, Windows, Mac devices, and the vast majority of Smart TVs on the market.

In addition, it does not have a receiver, so the lack of this element will allow you to use this curious gadget on different devices in a much more comfortable way. All you have to do is sync Snowl and start using it.

Say that Snowl has different ways of use. To begin with, we can activate the Air Mouse mode to control any device very comfortably. This mode is ideal for use with your smart TV or tablet. Do you want to go to gesture mode?

You just have to press on the top button of this gadget for two seconds, to activate this second mode. Through it, you can perform different gestures that will activate actions. Ideal for making presentations in your work, for example.

Not enough for you? Well, you know that it also boasts a joystick mode. To do this, you just have to connect the Snowl to its charging base and start using it in this mode.

Before we have told you that you can link this gadget to all kinds of devices. Well, know that, with the press of a button, it will automatically switch between the different linked products, so you can use this curious product simultaneously and in the most comfortable way.

A battery that doesn’t disappoint

Regarding autonomy, despite the restrained dimensions of Snowl, it should be noted that the manufacturer guarantees up to 12 hours of use in Air Mouse mode or Gesture mode, reaching 53 hours if you want to control this device through its joystick mode.

In addition, its low consumption mode will allow this gadget to last up to a month so that you can take it and use it when you need it. Of course, if you are interested in this product, you must arm yourself with patience.

More than anything, because the Cox Space gadget won’t start shipping to customers until March of next year. Of course, taking into account that, through its official Kickstarter page, you can reserve a unit of this mini mouse for the index finger for only 99 dollars, less than 84 euros at the exchange, it is a product to consider.

Apple Exhibits New Product Tracker for $29 Coin-Sized Item Tracker

Apple has just shown off its newest product line, the name AirTag. This is a coin-sized item tracker that Apple plans to sell for $ 29 in India.

Apple made this AirTag announcement at today’s Spring Loaded 2021 event, amid other announcements regarding Apple TV and the new iPhone 12 color variant.

The Apple AirTag is more of an accessory than a complete product, for someone who wants to have more than just an iPhone or MacBook in the Apple ecosystem.

AirTag lets you track items in Apple’s “Find My” app on iOS. Apple AirTags’ goal is to keep track of everyday items such as keys, wallets, or backpacks, and notify you whenever you are separated from them.

Reporting from The Verge, Wednesday (21/4/2021), the new Apple AirTag itself has an internal speaker, accelerometer, Bluetooth LE, and a user-replaceable battery.

Apple says trackers should last one year of battery life, and you can use an NFC tap to activate lost mode for items you want to track.

According to Apple, each AirTag is equipped with an Apple-designed U1 chip using Ultra-Wideband technology, enabling Precision Search for iPhone 11 and iPhone 12 users.

This allows the user to more accurately determine the distance and direction to the AirTag that is lost while it is in range. As the user moves, Precision Search combines input from the camera, ARKit, accelerometer, and gyroscope and then guides them to AirTag using a combination of sound, haptic, and visual feedback.
