Who are you?
A passion to change the way humans interact with technology and long hours of brainstorming led RHL Vision technologies to come up with a disruptive product Fin, ”Wear the World”. A small wearable of its kind by which you can control your entire digital world.
RHL vision Technologies Pvt. Ltd. is a group of passionate individuals, who are dreaming of a world where technology runs in the palms of your hands, where a mere finger-‐swipe can bring you resources and functions never imagined before and progressing through the path to conquer the impossible is the story of our small group of innovators and technology junkies.
What is Fin? Fin is a tiny hardware product that you can wear on the thumb of your hand as a ring and it will make your whole palm as a touch interface. Fin is a Bluetooth enabled device that we can connect to other digital world gadgets like Smartphones, Smart TVs, Automobiles, and home automation devices. Fin reads different gestures from your palms and its corresponding values control your connected devices. It uses smart Low Energy Technology as it uses Bluetooth.4 Technology for Communication with target devices.
Unique Features of Fin Ø Three different Device Compatibility with single Fin. Ø Recognize each division of fingers. Ø Fin act as Security Authenticator. Ø Gesture Interaction on Palm. Ø Fashionable. Ø Water Proof, Dust Proof and Durable.

What are you raising money for? Where is the money going? What is our goal? Where is your money being used?
Fin is a rare kind of product that evolved from a technology that aims at natural human machine interaction. Fin achieves its goal when it goes global. To make Fin global we need your support. It not only help us find funds for manufacturing but also spread a word to the world about our new invention to make our planet a better place to live on.
To list out what will happen to the Funds that are raised is below:
Ø Materials and Designs.
Ø Hardware manufacturing.
Ø Hardware design.
Ø Funding for materials cost.
Ø Adding more enhancements to Fin like Unique User Authentication.
Ø Assembly.
Ø Platform integration and support.
Ø Casing and packaging.
Ø And of course shipping!
After funding is complete, we will immediately invest the money to the above expenses. Updates will be sent out as each stage is completed, keeping supporters informed of all major updates.
How can others support you?
FIN is now ready to go live after our consistent hard working for over one year. We want the Fin to be more than just a prototype, but we can't do it alone. Your contributions will help us make Fin to a fully finished reality.
Fin is going live on Indiegogo because it’s a great way to reach out to creative developers, wearable tech pioneers, enthusiastic early adopters, and premium platforms.
We’ve come up with hundreds of ideas for applications to integrate with Fin, but we know that we haven’t even scratched the surface of what is possible.
We want you, the developer, to propel the wearable tech movement forward by creating entire new categories of applications with Fin and complementary technologies.
We want you, wearable tech pioneers, to collaborate with us to provide consumers with an ever-increasing web of tightly integrated wearable technology products that enhance productivity, learning, and social interaction.
We want you, the early tech adopter, to use your influence as trend-setters to show the world the benefits of a smarter, interactive and more connected world.
And so we’re making available – today – for people who are passionate about wearable technology and want to help us create something special.

Updates
We are always looking for ways to make Fin refined and better. These ideas are in the process of being confirmed.
Ø Prototypes are being tested.
Ø Adding feature like Authentication.
Ø Offering a variety of colors-‐designs.
Ø Looking into customizable designs for personalization.
Ø We are currently testing metal bodies for Fin.
Ø Including Re-‐chargeable battery.
Specs
Ø Fin should come with Water-‐proof: IP67. Ø Size: 60mm (L) * 12mm (W) * 4mm (H). Ø Battery: Polymer lithium battery ; more than one months. Ø Sensors: Fin can track accurate movement of your thumb on the palm also
recognize each part of your finger where you are touching. Ø Communication: Bluetooth 2.1+ EDR and 4.0 Ø Compatibility: iOS, Android, Windows Phones.
Use cases Ø Thumb is accessible to anywhere in the palm and its more natural too. So wearing
a Fin will make your palm as a touch interface that enables the people to interact with smart phones [Dial Numbers, Attending calls, SMS, Social media, Taking Quick Notes etc.] especially for blind people since they sense the world through touch.
Ø Fin can control your smart TV, to just change the channels, control sounds by mere natural finger swipes.
Ø Fin can control your car from being your cars key to controlling your phone while driving, navigate your maps, receive calls and read messages, change music, and other car utilities just by finger swipe without even taking your hands out of the steering wheel there by not distracting yourself from driving.
Ø A big problem in all the wearable is the input of Instructions. In the much-‐Hyped Google glass, a voice instruction and a touch pad on the wearable is provided, but both the input methods are cumbersome in odd situations. Integration with FIN will be ideal for these wearable as FIN can control the device with much ease and accuracy.
Ø For better entertainment experience FIN can serve as joysticks in gaming industry. [Image]waiting for wowmakers inputs
