Description

ToÜ, the long-distance communication tool, provides a revolutionary way of communication for people. Put on the ToÜ smart device and connect it to the ToÜ app. It brings the non-verbal elements in real-life communications to digital communications by detecting the hand movements and bodily conditions of users. Detected data is classified into information-based and emotion-based, which is shown on the app by pop-up text and the receiving part of the smart device by various senses respectively. It raises the awareness of the importance of non-verbal elements and builds the habit of expression to enhance communication. Also, the power of “touch” is brought into digital communication to strengthen the connection between people and allow feeling interpretation, hence achieving digital well-being in the long term.
