SmartHalo adds GPS navigation and more to your bicycle

SmartHalo is a device that attaches to your bicycle’s handlebars to provide visual GPS navigation, a headlight, alarm, and even fitness tracking. The SmartHalo device was a successfully funded Kickstarter project from 2015, but it looks like they just now starting to ship to their backers and offer the device to the public.

The device features an LED ring that lights up in different colors and sections to provide turn-by-turn visual cues while riding to a destination that is set through the companion app on your phone.

SmartHalo will automatically log your activity as you ride – including your traveling time, distance, average speed, elevation and more.

If you get a call or text while you’re riding, the unit will light up so you won’t miss an important notification.

Other features include anti-theft alarm, a double LED headlight, bike locator, and more.

The SmartHalo is priced at $149 through smarthalo.bike where you can read more about it. You also might want to head over to the Kickstarter page to read the user comments before you order because there appear to be some growing pains with this new product that the company is still trying to work on.

Locate your dog from anywhere in the world

Our canine companions (aka fur babies) are as important to us as our human children and as such, pet parents like to know where their dog is at any given time. We’ve seen Bluetooth enabled pet tags that can alert you when your pet leaves a designated area, but the LINK AKC Smart Collar looks like it could be the ultimate pet tracker.

The LINK AKC Smart Collar pairs a wireless GPS-enabled collar with an iOS / Android app that allows the pet owner to see their pet’s location on demand from anywhere.

The collar has a two-piece design that includes the buckled collar and the wireless GPS module. The module not only tracks the location of your dog, but it has other built-in features like a remote controlled light, temperature sensor, activity monitor and even an audible alert that can be used for training purposes.

The mobile app shows the pet’s location, daily activity, and can be used to record walks that include pictures that you snap with the phone when you’re on your daily adventures.

The Link AKC comes in 4 sizes to accommodate different sized dogs. They will even let you upsize to a larger collar if your dog outgrows the first one you purchase.

The price for the Link AKC Smart Collar is $179 with a $9.95 monthly fee for the GPS service. You can save on the monthly fee by paying for a year or even two years up front.  For more info about the Link AKC Smart Collar, visit linkakc.com and you can order one through Amazon.
