Notch Launches Its Smartphone-Based Wearable Sensor Technology

In April, we profiled Notch Interfaces, and CEO Stepan Boltalin, about the New York City startup’s plan for the year. And just last week, the company officially launched their primary product, Notch, a wearable sensor network that allows the user to evaluate movement from the screen of a smartphone.

Notch is a series of wireless sensors that attach to different areas of the body with straps. As the wearer of these sensors does certain movements, the sensors track a user’s biomechanics in real-time with the use of accelerometers, gyroscopes and compasses. The sensors then feed that information to a connected smartphone and build a 3D graphic of the wearer’s movements.
