Description | Because we are just too busy to regularly keep in touch with those we love and care about, we created a wearable product that keeps you in constant contact with the people who matter the most to you. Our product is based on simulation game that mimics certain activity and health conditions of people in your real life. The data from our wearable device connects you to a virtual universe where you can play games, send virtual pokes, share activity results, and more. We call this wearable simulation game BETWINE -- it's between you and the people you care about the most.
BETWINE brings the positive energy of simulation game play to the real world. In the virtual world of BETWINE, you can download avatars of your boyfriend/girlfriend, your parents, or anyone else to your mobile phone where you can be close to them at all times and without any limitation of time and space. |
