Vigo is a Bluetooth headset that measures blinks and body movements to warn users if they are getting too drowsy.
The device could be potentially life-saving for drivers and other situations where concentration is vital.
Vigo is currently on Kickstarter and has already raised more than $38,000 of its $50,000 goal, and with 15 days are still left, it was a good chance of getting funded.
The device’s starting price is a very reasonable only $59.
The Experts behind Vigo say that the average eye blink happens in 1/5 of a second, but tha headset tracks over 20 parameters in your blinks and watches how these variables change.
If Vigo thinks user is getting too drowsy, it will alert user by vibrating and blinking its LED light or playing a song through the headpiece.
Vigo also lets you save different events according to their time such as driving and studying, and then saves the data so you can know what times of day you tend to get tired.
The device works on same principle as other Bluetooth headset and allow users to take incoming calls.
By using Coffee & energy drinks we keep us from dozing off, but the most reliable way to stay alert was having a buddy next to us that could watch when we were losing our focus and nudge us when we started to doze off.
