Phree is a digital style that works anywhere -
Developed by OTM Technologies of Israel, Phree is a digital pen that you can use, in the name of the CEO, to present yourself anywhere, anytime anywhere. Yes, almost anywhere. It does not write on glass, and it does not write effectively in clustered areas like crackers, as shown by Gilad Lederer, OTM founder and CEO, during a visit to their Ra'anana office.

The author uses an optical sensor, developed by Lederer and his co-founders Opher Kinrot and Uri Kinrot, to measure any movement of an object in three dimensions. It connects to devices (laptops, smartphones, tablets, VR headsets) via Bluetooth and works with Windows and Android apps, including notification software.
OTM also offers an iOS and Android app that allows users to take quick notes on their arm, wall, bananas, etc without unlocking their smartphones. In future versions, the company plans to use two features: Phree as a headset to answer calls and a message screen on the street where users will be able to reply by texting on their leg, for example.

Even with Bluetooth latency, the connection between Phree and the device is less than 15 milliseconds, which is almost instantaneous. The pen tip provides a lot of pressure and can be used as a brush. While these features seem helpful to photographers, according to Lederer, Phree is intended for young professionals to take notes in meetings and interpret texts.
It's impressive, but unless you're an artist who doesn't want to run a tablet, an account manager who likes to scratch spreadsheets or a schmo who wants to see their text typed, $ 198 costs less to save those few seconds of unlocking your phone to write down a note. Also, it’s just another sticky item in your pocket, as well as your wallet, phone and keys.
OTM plans to produce in the coming months, but Phree is currently available for pre-order through Indiegogo, where the company has earned more than $ 1.5 million, 1,066 percent more than its original target.
they have developed an optical rendering sensor (OTM) that directly tracks hand movements in almost any area, at a very high distance. they have been able to develop an engineer and build a compact sensor, which costs less than a pen device. a combination of explosive and ergonomic technology, the company developed an easy-to-use pen called 'free'. The patented OTM sensor is a compact 3D laser interferometer. tracks the relative motion of the surrounding area by measuring the signal interference between the laser beam shown above and the display from above. signal and then translated into XY-Z movement information through our signal processing algorithms that operate on a very small, integrated electronic device.
