HotWatch Turns Your Hand into a Phone

Aug-02-13 With an array of smartwatches competing for the market, the Hot Watch stands out with its ability to allow the user to make private calls without touching their phone.

The Hot Watch can be controlled by gestures, with a wave of the hand triggering it to answer a call or dial a pre-programmed number. It even features a safety option that will dial an emergency number if the user falls down suddenly. However, its most stand-out feature is the private call function, which uses the hand to amplify a directional speaker for private, yet clear calls—allowing the palm to act as a phone receiver.

The Hot Watch has already exceeded its funding goal on Kickstarter.
