HardTech Heroes: AmbyGear

In this episode, we visit with Patrick Muggler from AmbyGear, a new wearable designed specifically for kids (and their parents.  Michael and Patrick talk a little bit about the process used to take the idea from concept to prototype.  And we try out the device to make sure it works as advertised. Check out the video, share with your friends, and connect with Patrick and AmbyGear if you’re interested to learn more.  Also, a special thanks to our friends at Plug & Play Tech Center in Sunnyvale for helping us out during production.    

 

 

 

 

HardTech Heroes: Olio

In our second episode, we visit with AJ Cooper from Olio Devices, makers of a gorgeous smart watch. Their approach to wearables is different than most of their competitors, seeing the watch for what it is – a fashionable way to keep track of time. The connectivity they’ve added to the watch doesn’t resemble or replicate your smartphone, it enhances your connected experience with elegant notifications. Michael Hand interviewed AJ at a Sandbox Suites co-working space in San Francisco. Check it out and share with your friends, and don’t forget to let us know what you think about the show.
