If you could stop being flushed or uncomfortably warm by setting an app or wearing a thermostat that looks like a watch, would you?
Embr Labs thinks so, so they’re selling a device called the Embr Wave. While the Wave made its debut years earlier, and the conception of the idea links back to something called the Wristify, the current Embr Wave 2 is making its rounds in some media feeds as a potential answer for those with temperature and sleep concerns. The Embr Wave is a stealthy thermostat that sits on your wrist, offering hot sleepers, people with hot flashes and anyone else who is bothered by bursts of temperature shifts — hot or cold — a little bit of relief through the push of a button and some app settings.
How it works
The Embr Wave looks like a watch, but instead of the circular face sitting on the outside of your wrist, it sits on the inside where the skin is particularly temperature-sensitive. It comes in rose gold or black color and, no, it can’t tell time or take any health metrics like other wearables can.
