Here is a little time alarming device, which is to be worn in your ear, as shown in the picture. It’s claimed to be pretty useful, which it’s got a handful of typical usage. By having a first glance, I’m in doubt this gadget can perform as what it’s mentioned on its product page. Its typical usage according to the website are as follows:
1. During mass transportation, alarming you not to pass your station and not bothering other passengers. But how? It simply knows how to detect and alarm you when you almost reach your destination?
2. During driving, remind you not going to sleep. We’ve seen some similar before, which it can detect that you almost want to doze off and make sound to wake you up. I guess this could also do that.
3. During studying or taking exam. Well, I guess it should be similar to usage 2, that it’ll prevent you from dozing off.
4. During cooking or housekeeping to remind you soup is ready or it’s time to take care of something. This sounds pretty hard to see the point.
Anyway, my guess is, for usage 1 to 4, this little gadget simply detects and wakes you up when your forehead is moving forward while you almost doze off. Or it can simply let you set a count-down timer to wake you up by making loud beep sound when its time is up. No need to scratch your head about its usage, just spend $15.00, get one and find out yourself.
