The world's first anti-nausea smartwatch, EmeTerm Smart, is currently crowdfunding on Indiegogo, introducing a safe, simple and drug-free way to quell car sickness, morning sickness and more.
This device combining the functionality of a smartwatch with an anti-nausea wristband was inspired by the founder's wife experiencing extreme morning sickness during her pregnancy. This smart device uses transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) to provide a drug-free, side-effect-free solution for all types of nausea and vomiting. What's more, the FDA-approved device boasts a success rate of up to 85% and it has won several prestigious design awards, including the iF Design Award, Red Dot Design Award, and IDA Design Award.
With the EmeTerm Smart's touch-sensitive screen, users can adjust the electrical stimulation level, as well as view the time and access other health-tracking data like their daily steps.
