Communication is a constant for many consumers thanks to technology like smartphones but can quickly become unavailable when enjoying time in the wilderness, so the 'Bivystick' has been developed with this in mind.
Requiring no activations or contracts to be set up, the device will allow users to send and receive text messages, track their path, share their location or send out an SOS in the event of an emergency. This ensures that users are kept as safe as possible when enjoying time outdoors to satisfy their need for a reconnection to nature.
The 'Bivystick' also works as a backup battery that's packed with 6,000 mAh of power to charge your smartphone two or three times, depending on make and model.
