GEAR AND GADGETS THAT GIVE YOU THE EDGE

NO TIME FOR SLACKING

GET THIS: Pavlok Wristband.

READY FOR: Getting your schedule back together. This device literally

sends you shocks of electricity when it finds you doing an unwanted

habit, such as smoking, nail biting, procrastinating, among others.

Featuring “zaptic” feedback, while other wearables merely track when

you’ve already done, this device was made to change your behaviour for

the better. Using an app on your phone, you can choose which habit you

want to break, and the wristband’s intergrated sensors will know when

you’ve been committing your crimes.

THE BEST PART: This gadget could be a godsend for those with serious

issues like drinking/smoking addiction. Additionally, it can work as a

simple notification tool without the sound – you can reprogram it to

vibrate when your boss e-mails you, remind you to go to the gym, and so

forth, ultimately improving your productivity.

COST: US$189.99 (or $267), http://www.pavlok.com.
