The universal sign for “call me” is to raise your hand to your head,
put your thumb in your ear and your pinkie next to your mouth. Now
there’s a glove that actually lets you talk on the phone in that exact
same position. It’s called the Hi-Call glove – a Bluetooth enabled
device with a microphone in the pinkie and a speaker in your thumb. It’s
a bit wacky and we can’t imagine many will sell beyond gag gifts, but
it is part of the growing trend of integrating technology into our
clothing and we thought we’d point it out. Hey you’re glove is ringing.
At least that’s how we think it works when you wear the Hi-Call gloves
and receive a phone call. Available in either grey or black in mens and
womens sizes, the Hi-Call glove hooks up with your iphone via Bluetooth
so you can talk through your hand. Available online starting at €49.99,
the gloves come with a manual and a microUSB to USB charging cable.
Standby battery life of the glove lasts up to 10 hrs and talk time
should give you 20 hrs. The pointer finger of the glove is designed to
let you mess with you iphone.
The idea is so you can keep your hands warm in the winter and still be able to talk on the phone. We think your hand is likely to get a cramp from holding it in that position. It’s patent pending, so don’t get any ideas about cashing in on this beauty of an idea.
