So are our 5 senses no longer good enough? The surge of products developing to supplement our five senses seem support the notion that we could all use a little science, technology and magic to live healthier lives and be more self aware.
Here are are three 6th sense products we love (note that we are highlighting products that go beyond fitness tracking wearables):
6th Sense of Posture: Lumo Lift - We could all work on our posture. Lumo Lift is a small clasp-on device that you can clip to a collar of your shirt and that connects to your phone, sensing when you when you need to lift up your head and pull your shoulders back, providing the 6th sense of posture.
6th Sense of Sobriety: Portable Breathalyzer - We couldn’t really settle on but the concept is great – a series of companies providing the 6th sense of sobriety (or lack thereof).
6th Sense of Environment: Lapka Pem – While Lapka also makes a breathalyzer, the team (some former Apple engineers, can you tell?) has also developed a beautiful personal environment monitor. The gorgeous series of devices can sense: radiation, organic content, EMF, humidity
