A wearable UV-tracking bracelet that transforms sunscreen awareness into physical sensation
Helix uses smart cable tension and sliding bead indicators to visually show sunscreen coverage and UV exposure in real-time. Get immediate, glanceable feedback about your sun protection status without checking a phone.
You look down at your wrist while swimming and watch the beads physically slide from green to yellow to red as your sunscreen wears off — a living, breathing awareness of your UV exposure that feels like an extension of your body, not another notification to ignore.
Slip on the lightweight bracelet before heading outdoors
Beads slide as UV exposure accumulates throughout the day
Gentle vibrations prompt you to reapply sunscreen
