You Have to Arki Before You Walk

Nov. 17, 2014 - PRLog -- Los Angeles, CA, November 17, 2014 – Zikto, an innovative wearable technology startup, has developed the world’s first smartband that detects user’s poor walking posture. The company, with offices in Los Angeles and Seoul, succeeded in raising over 50% of its $100K pledge in just 24 hours after launching its Kickstarter campaign on November 11th.

The overwhelming support from crowd-funders solidifies the need for Arki’s affordable, unprecedented technology. Arki tracks the user’s arm swing to detect good and bad walking habits. It compares your left and right arm swings, and analyze your body balance. Biometric authentication can identify our unique walking patterns, much like a fingerprint. Swing speed, rotation angles and transferred vibration from the feet are measured to help Arki provide detailed data and real-time feedback as a reminder to maintain good walking habits throughout the day.

“People with poor posture can have sore muscles, spinal curvature and constriction of nerves and blood vessels,” says Ted Kim, CEO.  He continued, “This simple device provides more benefits than any other wearable technology on the market.”
