Welcome to the future!
This is a new type of product for Adafruit, we want to create wearable
electronics that are subtle, fun to wear and look classy. We're starting
with cufflinks and soon we will have a necklace version shortly.
The cufflinks are CNC machined from the finest 6 series aluminum for
durability and beauty. The iCufflinks are a remarkable accessory.
Machined with a "screw in backing". Each iCufflink contains a circuit
board with pulsating LED and battery.
Reverse engineered
The "pulsing" is similar to the "breathing" LED pattern on many laptop and computer systems. The default pattern is
reverse engineered from the Apple "breathing" LED on Macs, MacBooks, iMacs, etc.
Open source
Cufflinks are completely open source.
The
source code, circuit board files, schematics and CAD files are posted
on GitHub. Mod & Hack away! Cufflinks can be reprogrammed to any
pattern you'd like!
Ready to go
Before your fancy event, just pop the battery in, screw the backing and
your iCufflinks will gently pulsate for up to 72 hours. Each order comes
with 2 sets of batteries, simply replace them when the LED is too dim
to see. We sell replacement batteries as well.
Designed and made in North America
Cufflinks are lovingly machined in Toronto, Canada by Ross + Doell,
assembled in New York, New York USA. Created by Mike Doell, Limor Fried
and Phillip Torrone.
