Lotus Ring to offer lighting control and more by pointing

Techstination feature for Monday, February 12, 2024

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.        A ring that will allow a wearer to control lights and more by simply pointing and giving a little click.    The Lotus Ring from Lotus Labs was created by former Apple engineer Dhaval Patel using infrared technology….which you’ve been using to control your TV and quite a few other devices for many years.  There is no re-wiring needed.   His own reliance on crutches was the motivation…and he sees the Lotus Ring fulfilling a need for many older adults and others with mobility challenges.   Shipping is expected later this year..

“We believe when we launch a pack will have one ring and two or three Lotus switch covers.  And that pack would be priced at 299 dollars.”

And could be set up in minutes.   Find more info at www.getlotus.com.
