June: photovoltaic bracelet to track sun
We all love to get in the sun and get a great healthy tint. Especially when the summer is
comming. We all go to the beach and love to lay there all day long, but we also know that the sun
can really damage our skin. Luckely with the technologics of these days, we're able to check the
exposure of the sun by ourselves. If you don't believe this? Than keep on reading and meet June.
What is it?
June is a luxery designed bracelet, which is made by Netatmo and is designed by Louis Vuitton.
It's a bluetooth bracelet which tells you how much sun exposure you're getting. But how does
this work? You can sync your bracelett over bluetooth to your iPhone. When you download the
app you can track how much sun you're getting. The bracelet will measure the sun exposure and
than it will advise you if you have to wear a hat, a sunglass or if you have to protect yourself with
a specific sunscreen.
Why is this cool and what has this to do with total transparency?
Because of the great influence of the technologic, we're able to create almost everything which
we want to. I think the June is a great gadget to warn you for the power of the sun. We want to know were we are standing, do this gadget can tell us exactly if we are in danger or not.
It's also very wearable because of it's great design and different colours.
The June is for now on only a great eyecatcher for the innovaters, the majority is not familiar with
it yet.
How does it have growth potential?
The technology is getting more important by the day. And so is the transparency and knowledge. The june has got it al, it’s fashionable, a great technologic item and it also gives us the information we want to have. That’s what we need. The june is now only a gadget which can tell us when to sunbath, but maybe in the future we will also have necklaces which can tell us when to eat, drink or things like that.
