About

Know who is attracted to you

Ripple is a wearable extension of the body designed for the future of dating. The device uses computer vision to scan a room and calculate whom within it is attracted to the wearer. When the device finds someone, it sends a ‘ripple’ up the wearer’s spine, reflecting the excitement one feels when meeting a potential mate. If the attraction is mutual, Ripple’s tentacles move in reaction to the wearer’s gaze, amplifying the language of seduction between the two people. When they finally lock eyes, Ripple warms up, helping the wearer feel comfortable to start a new adventure.
