Tod: Connect Real World Actions to Mobile Devices
Tod is a smart tiny gadget that syncs with devices like the iPhone 4s & 5 and the 3rd iPad with Bluetooth 4.0 to interact with the world around you. It is that powerful and energy-efficient that it can run for years on a single coin-cell battery.
Tod is all about real world actions that occur around you, a child wandering off or arriving at the corner market – your phone will register an “out of range” or “in range” event based on physical proximity. It triggers a digital interaction that provides you with instant feedback which is a notification alerting you that your child is out of your set range, or did not reach the desired/right location. It uses three core events like “in range”, “out of range” and “scheduled” which can be adjusted and customized.
