- If you've ever dreamed of waving your hand and controlling your thermostat, TV, computer, garage, or lights, well, Nod is a Bluetooth ring that shares that dream.
- It's a $149 gadget available for preorder today that'll ship this fall.
- The Nod needs to be sized to an individual finger.
- The ring has a dark plastic outer surface, and surgical-grade steel inside.
- Once charged, it lasts about a day.
- Inside are a variety of motion sensors, including a nine-axis accelerometer, plus two Cortex M3 processors.
- On the outer edge is a touch-bar and extra button controls.
- The ring is worn over your forefinger, and it works like a superpowered pointer; point and move your finger, and a cursor moves around wherever you're aiming.
- The one thing Nod lacks is a microphone. If Nod had a microphone, it might not be as waterproof.
- Nod's founders claim Nod will work with LG TVs from 2012 and later, Macs and PCs, as well as Android and iOS.
