Imagine if you could hold your special someone close at all times. With technology, anything is possible. A innovative new wearable on Kickstarter wants to let you touch your loved one, no matter the distance.

The Hey bracelet is the first wearable that mimics real human touch. Not a mechanical vibration or buzzing sensation, but an actual touch such as a gentle squeeze. A godsend for those in long-distance relationships, parents and children, friends or anyone who wants to stay connected.

Unsurprisingly, Hey comes as a set of two bracelets. They are linked to each other via Bluetooth and an app on your smartphone.

By softly squeezing your bracelet your beloved one will experience your touch like you’re really there. Plus, the message is always intimate and private. The bracelet must be touched in two places to send a message. This also ensures that you never send a touch accidentally.

With 9 days to go, the campaign has surpased its €125,000 goal. Designed for both men and women Hey will be released in August in two versions: white & rose gold and anthracite & black. Designs for more versions are ready, depending on interest.
