Alyson Wyers — July 9, 2014 — Tech
If you feel the need to be constantly notified when things go on with your various social sites, this social media wearable is the perfect smart wristband for you. The Hicon is currently seeking funding on Indiegogo and acts as a smart social bracelet with social media icons that are interchangeable.
Unlike other trackable technology, this social media wearable won't monitor your health or fitness levels, but the going ons of Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Google+, WhatsApp and more. The water, shock and sand-proof bracelet will vibrate and light up when it needs to alert you. It will also go off if another Hicon wristband is in the vicinity so you can communicate with other like-minded people and discuss the internet of things.
