Title: New project: EmoSPARK
Post by: emospark on November 25, 2013, 06:29:40 pm: Love this forum and have been following it for a while.

We are launching a new home console and I wanted to share it with everyone here.
EmoSPARK is Android powered Wi-Fi/Bluetooth cube empowered by you that allows to transfer your real life emotions and desires directly onto a digital platform using state of the art Artificial Intelligence measurements and technology.

Check it out @ http://www.emospark.com (http://igg.me/at/emospark/x/5943796)

We are currently on the countdown to an IndieGoGo campaign and you can find out about pre-launch rewards on our website.
Spread the word now and get $25 per referral when IndieGoGo goes live.

Stand up against the singularity and be a part of the revolution...

I really like the look of this O0

Got a few questions...

Obvious question I know, but have you set a price yet ?

You seem to be at an advanced stage, how long have you all been working on this ?

How big is this ?

Have you got a press release we can publish here as an article please ?

The technology itself seems very interesting - I'll pop back and have a further read, I am bit tied up at the moment..

Also I'll take you up on the referrals thing - I'd like to commission some new articles for the site so it would be great to get even one referral for you. I just registered - would it be okay to make a square banner with some of your promotional graphics at that link ?

The graphic would be 200px x 200px or thereabouts and would be displayed over on the right hand side there with the other projects.

And good luck O0

Here is a link to the media kit: http://bit.ly/1dkBJy7 (http://bit.ly/1dkBJy7) (which includes images for the banner)

We are working on a new video and a press release will be out very soon that contains more information.

Post by: Freddy on November 25, 2013, 10:28:01 pm: Thanks for that, I now have the kit you mailed me.

I added a square banner to the right-hand side and 50% of the time you will get a banner pop up at the base of the board.

I liked the press release, I'll get that published too asap.

Title: Re: New project: EmoSPARK
Post by: emospark on January 29, 2014, 07:38:30 pm: The EmoSPARK campaign has raised $69,850 of our goal of $100K so far with 25 days to go!

Of course reaching $100K will be amazing, but we've also added some stretch goals just in case, like Home automation & Ninja Sphere compatibility. Our founder has been in contact with IBM to talk about Watson integration as well.

If you can help us out by supporting us or by sharing this link - we would really appreciate it!

Post by: Freddy on November 23, 2014, 07:19:40 pm: Another campaign started here with a lower target.

It's been mentioned that it will be featured on the UK Gadget Show.
Title: Re: New project: EmoSPARK
Post by: squarebear on November 25, 2014, 10:12:32 am: It was featured on the gadget show last night but came across as a bit of a joke to be honest.
Title: Re: New project: EmoSPARK
Post by: Freddy on November 25, 2014, 02:04:51 pm: Just watched it, that's the first time I have seen it actually working.

I think the price has gone up, or maybe it's the usual thing of us paying more here.

There's the on demand version of the show here for those that can view it (maybe use a proxy server if outside of the UK) :

The Emospark bit is pretty short, it starts at about 26:00 minutes in.
