Ripple Network Technologies, Inc. recently announced that it will be teaming up with Tunstall to launch a Kickstarter campaign for a cutting-edge device that serves as the "world's first wearable support network." Dubbed 'Ripple,' this wearable device represents the future of personal safety technology.
Ripple is a penny-sized wearable device that instantly connects users with the Tunstall team of emergency problem-solvers who are available 24 hours a day. To use the device, users simple press the discrete Bluetooth button activate the app and they will receive an immediate call from a member of the Tunstall monitoring team. This individual can then dispatch emergency services or assistance for the Ripple user if necessary. The device even allows users to press the button three times for immediate help if they are unable to talk to the monitoring team.
Whether walking home alone at night or meeting up with a stranger for a date, Ripple gives users peace of mind in knowing that their wearable support network is always with them.
