$842 of $25,000 goal

Given by 14 generous donors in 8 weeks

We are on a mission. A mission to create a ripple by enabling those with hearing loss to feel the sensations of their auditory environment.

Auckland

We underestimate how much we depend on our hearing to notice changes in our environment, taking this ability for granted. Imagine being unable to know when the fire alarm had gone off, being unaware of when a vehicle is speeding towards you as you cross the road, being unable to confidently live an independent life. Through the power of technology and a passionate, dedicated team we have created the Pulse. A situation simulator band that has the ability to warn the user of these potential dangers, reconnecting them to their auditory environment.

Rippl's involvement (page creator)

I am the CEO and one of six founders of Rippl.

Use of funds

All funds raised will be used for R&D to enable us to deliver the very first version of the Pulse. As the very first situational simulator band of this type in the world, it is important that we can deliver a device of the very best quality.

In phase one of our campaign, we aim to fundraise $25,000. In phase two, we hope to be able to create an even larger ripple effect, meaning that we will need $75,000.
