Have you ever heard of “Time -poor”? It is a newly coined word that describes people who have relatively little free time. People these days feel that they lack time because they are overworked. Therefore, checking and saving time became an important issue. Then how do you see the time? What if you are so busy that you can’t even take a look at your watch? Or what if you are in an important meeting and looking at your watch might interrupt the meeting? Maybe now it’s time to “feel” the time instead. Korean startup Time Flow makes this possible.
What is Time Flow?
Time Flow is a tactile based wrist watch that tells time by touch. There is a button to tell the current time and time representation is made by vibrations. You can literally feel the time. It has been inconvenient to check the time by stroking ball bearings and was hard to perceive the flow of time subjectively as there have been consequences when it is difficult to check the time whenever the person wants. Also, not many watches had alarm setting functions. Time flow is now solving all these problems. It has easy notification settings for alarms and it notifies the flow of time regularly.
Besides this amazing function, it is not only fashionable but scientifically it was found that it is helpful for natural brain training. Time Flow would be effective for the blind as they can feel the time even though they cannot see the watch. It would be attractive to those fashionable people who care about the design and high technology as well. Business people can also find it interesting as they do not have to worry about looking at their watch. Time Flow is planning to broaden its market toward brain training and smart wearables in the future using its competitive advantages.
