Dinos Demetriades, Chief Strategy Officer at Tware, commented: “The Airawear is the world's first intelligent active garment, which is designed to relieve back pain on the go. It is a truly unique and novel product, unlike anything else. It combines the benefits of posture tracking sensors and software, a strong 6 point shiatsu massage system - using the Tware patented airbag system - in a stylish hoodie or vest package that is truly stealthy, discreet and portable with 6 hours rechargeable battery life. The Airawear is controlled by a mobile phone app, which allows it to collect usage data and customisable programmes.”
Tware had a successful Kickstarter campaign to fund the manufacturing of the Airawear with its first deliveries starting in December 2016. The company is now looking for distributors and resellers in Asia to sell its products, as well as potential product development partnerships with companies active in the tech, fashion and wellness sectors.
3. QLIPP (www.qlipp.com)
The QLIPP Tennis Sensor will be showcased during DISTREE APAC 2016. QLIPP is the smallest and lightest tennis sensor available in the market. QLIPP was started to bring the best of new technologies to sports enthusiasts at a low cost, according to CEO Donny Soh.
Soh stated: “Sports enthusiasts have always wanted to find out how they are performing and how they can improve. Traditionally, equipment to measure their performance is often extremely accurate but at a high cost. On the other extreme, you find wearables that are affordable, yet only gives generic data such as calories burn or step count.”
