The WHSP Ring offers a more discreet way of communicating with your phone

Have you ever been in a situation where you have to use your phone in a discreet manner? Sometimes this isn’t as easy as you think. This is why if you find yourself in such a predicament, VTouch’s WHSP Ring could be a gadget you should check out.

The WHSP Ring is basically a ring you wear on your finger (obviously). What makes it unique is that is it designed to allow users to interact with their smartphones discreetly. It comes with a built in proximity sensor and microphone that activates when you raise it to your mouth.

You can then speak to your phone’s virtual assistant and command it to do things. You might be wondering, how is this any different from regular use? For one, it seems to work even when you mutter quietly. This could be handy for a variety of purposes. Maybe you need to call for help but don’t want to be obvious about it.

Maybe there’s an incoming call but you don’t want to look like you’re reaching for your phone. Whatever the reason is, this smart ring offers a discreet way of going about it. The company is planning to launch the WHSP Ring on Kickstarter later this month where you can pledge your support for it if you’re interested.
