Say you’re out at night, you’re alone, it’s late, and it’s dark. This would present the perfect opportunity for someone to get attacked by people of the unsavory nature which is where devices like Revolar come in handy. This is a tiny device that’s around the size of a quarter and it allows users to press it which in turn will send a signal to your friends/family members and let them know your location.
Of course whether or not your help will actually arrive in time to save you remains to be seen, but it will come in handy for when users feel that they might not be safe and want to alert their friends and family members before anything happens, just to give them a heads up. Revolar is small enough to fit into pockets or be clipped onto clothing or even hung on a keychain where one could even hang a tiny canister of pepper spray.
It will feature a hard shell around the actual device to help it absorb any damage when dropped, and will also come with interchangeable shells in different colors. This lets users swap between colors when needed, perhaps to make it more discreet or to blend in with your fashion. Now its creators have several stretch goals in which Revolar will get more advanced depending on how much they can raise.
For example $150,000 will see audio recording, while $425,000 will help to activate the indoor tracking feature, and raising $1 million will unlock a loud beeper accessory that might scare away attackers. Whether or not they hit any of their stretch goals remains to be seen, but if you’d like to learn more head on over to its Kickstarter page for the details.
