Projecto is a pair of smart rings, one on each index finger. Slide your thumb along the ring to move the cursor, tap to click, slide the other ring to scroll. Speak and Wispr Flow types for you. Ask the built-in AI to add reminders, tasks and automations, and it even remembers what people ask of you. No mouse. No keyboard. One pair controls everything. It's a concept we're validating: tap 👍 on the site or join the waitlist if you'd wear it.

Could you build this?

No This is a physical dual-ring hardware product requiring custom microelectronics, IMU gesture tracking algorithms, optical sensors, firmware, and industrial design.

What it would actually take: Development demands specialized mechanical engineering, flexible PCB electrical engineering, low-power Bluetooth (BLE) firmware development, and sensor fusion algorithms for micro-gesture detection. It also requires custom driver development across desktop operating systems and mass manufacturing supply-chain logistics.
