Electrifying Alarm Clocks

The SingNshock Delivers a Few Millivolts to Jolt You Out of Bed

— January 9, 2013 — Tech
According to many people, the prospect of being late to work isn't enough of a deterrent against hitting the snooze button on your wake-up call. The SingNshock proposes a new method for reviving you from your slumber by means of delivering an electrical pulse.

It begins when you program Sankalp Sinha's colorful touchscreen alarm clock with 32 gigabytes of your favorite music. At rising time, the device plays the selected track through its high quality speakers in the rear, keeping the audio going until the user presses the large off switch on top.

Interestingly, one optional feature of this big button is to administer a surge of electricity in through the user's fingertips. The SingNshock initiates neurological functions and jump-starts your body for a productive day ahead.
Trend Themes
1. Electrified Wake-up Calls - Opportunity for alarm clock manufacturers to incorporate electric pulses in their products to provide a stronger wake-up call.
2. Customizable Alarm Clocks - Potential for alarm clock manufacturers to offer customization options, such as music selection and sound quality, to enhance the user experience.
3. Neurological Stimulation Devices - Emerging market for devices that use electrical pulses to stimulate neurological functions and jump-start the body for increased productivity.
Industry Implications
1. Consumer Electronics - Consumer electronics companies can explore incorporating electric pulse features in their alarm clocks to offer innovative wake-up experiences.
2. Music Streaming Services - Music streaming platforms can partner with alarm clock manufacturers to provide access to a wide range of music choices for wake-up alarms.
3. Neuroscience and Wellness - Neuroscience and wellness industries can explore the use of electrical stimulation devices for enhancing cognitive functions and promoting productivity.
