Crowdfunding project of the week: ORII allows for making calls using your finger

ORII - Your Voice Powered Smart Ring
Ring ring! Hear and talk through your finger with a touch of your ear. Stylishly make calls and send messages using only your voice.
Did you ever watch those movies where special agents communicate with each other by putting an index finger up to the ear? I wasn’t always able to see a device, so I wondered what exactly they were using. Maybe it was something like this week’s featured crowdfunding project.

ORII - Your Voice Powered Smart Ring

Other featured campaigns: 


ORII is unlike any other Bluetooth headset you have used. This is because it is technically not a headset; it is a ring. Just like in those movies, the ring bearer will be able to simply reach out and place a finger on his ear to make calls. How does this happen? This product uses bone conduction to transmit sound through your finger.

This method brings forth a few benefits over traditional speakers. The main one is that it requires contact to work, meaning nearby people won’t be able to hear what the person on the other side of the line is saying, no matter how close the spy is. It is also great for making calls in loud places. Bone conduction uses vibration to transmit sound. Outside noises won’t really interfere. At the same time, you are not blocking outside noise when on the phone.
Need more convincing? There are a few other features you might be interested in. You can use it to activate both Siri and Google Assistant and make voice commands. In addition, the ring comes equipped with LED lights that will notify you of recent phone activity.

This could be many a kid’s dream, and now you can get it straight from Kickstarter by backing the project with $119 or more. The campaign has reached its goal, but you will have to wait until February 2018 for shipments to begin. Are any of you interested?



About this project
Hi, I'm ORII!
Ring, ring! ORII is the world's first voice-powered smart ring that turns your finger into a smart phone.  Just by touching your ear you can make calls, send messages, set reminders, or anything else that Siri or Google Assistant can do for you. ORII uses bone conduction to send sound along your finger and into your ear. It's stylish and spy-ish, and only you can hear it. 

Bone conduction technology: giving ORII that magical “spy-like” experience of listening to something through your finger, this tech is proven, tested, and used in medical-grade hearing aids. Just touch your ear and ORII will send clear audio with complete privacy along your finger.
Thousands of people have tried ORII and said the hearing experience is amazing, sound quality nothing like they have tried before. See what people have to say.

Siri and Google Assistant Ready: ORII is built to work seamlessly with your phone’s voice assistant. Just long-press ORII’s CapSense button to wake up Siri and Google Assistant. Then use the dual noise-cancelling microphones to tell your voice assistant how they can help you.



Built for real, everyday life: it’s durable, lightweight, and designed to be worn comfortably on the hand all day. ORII is worry-free because it’s splash-proof and made of scratch-resistant anodized aluminum. And did we mention it comes in three sleek colors that can match your style?
Keep your eyes up, and stay in-the-moment. Screens are great, but don’t we want a little less screen time and a lot more awareness of those around us?
By putting Siri / Google Assistant on your hand, ORII gives a screen-free way to use your smart phone. It’s stylish and unleashes your inner secret agent with powerful communication features:

Easy Calling and Messaging When You’re On-The-Go
Built with walkers and talkers in mind, ORII’s perfect for when you’re on-the-go and need to take care of that quick call or text. Just leave your phone in your pocket or bag and touch your ear to start communicating.
Unlike a Bluetooth headset, you can wear ORII all day without the discomfort of having something in your ear. Lightweight and worn on your hand, it’s always ready when you are.

Hear and talk in loud places
It’s more fun to live out loud! That’s why ORII’s built to work even in loud places. Bone conduction uses physical vibration to send sound to your ear. This means background noise can’t interfere with your audio quality. And when you’re talking, ORII's dual noise-cancelling microphones make sure you come across crystal clear. How does that sound?


Discreet and private interactions
You can finally put that phone away! At work or at play, ORII helps you stay focused on the people you’re with by filtering notifications and making calls and messaging more discreet. A call you need to take? Forget about digging through your bag, just touch your ear and take care of business.

Get the Most Out of Siri / Google Assistant
Have you spoken with your voice assistant today? ORII is the most convenient way to use Siri / Google Assistant. Unlike having it on your phone or in a smart speaker, having it in a ring puts it where it’s most useful to you. It’s time to take care of those daily tasks while keeping your phone in your pocket!
