Kapture Audio is a wristband that records all the sounds that surround you.

Kapture Audio is a wristband that records all the sounds that surround you, all the time. When you hear a noteworthy information, you just tap on it to save it. The last minute recording is then stored for long term usage and is synchronized with your smartphone. Thanks to its application, the recording can be modified, enhanced, classified or shared easily. From now on, all the ideas and conversations can be stored easily and quickly. It is equipped with Bluetooth and can alert you via its vibrator when the battery is empty or when a recording is finished. Its battery lasts a whole day. It is water-resistant and can record up to 25 files in the WAV format 1.5 meters around.

At first glance, the device looks just like every other wristband that’s been released in the past few years. But unlike all the FitBits and FuelBands of the world, this one doesn’t track your steps, count your calories, or even read your heartbeat. Instead, Kapture records audio — and that’s it.

With the help of its finely-tuned omnidirectional microphone, Kapture picks up sound within a 5-foot radius of your wrist. It does this constantly, and continuusly records audio in a 60-second loop. Once you hear something that’s worth recording — a brilliant quote, a great joke, or a verbal contract, for example — you can just tap on the wristband’s face to save the previous minute of audio, which is immediately beamed to your phone via Bluetooth. If you don’t touch it, nothing is saved, and Kapturejust keeps on recording until you stumble upon the next preservation-worthy minute.

To be fair, this isn’t the first product that can “rewind real life,” so to speak. There are a handful of smartphone apps that give your phone the ability to constantly record audio and replay snippets from the past few minutes, so the concept isn’t exactly new at this point. What makes Kapture different, however, is the fact that it takes this audio recording capacity and removes it from your phone, which essentially gives you easier access to it, and avoids draining your phone battery.
