World’s Most Innovative Hybrid Smartwatch “Muse” Doubles Campaign Goal on Kickstarter, Raising more than $55,000 from Crowdfunding Backers
BANGALORE, India (PRWEB) June 25, 2018 -- The Muse hybrid smartwatch, which uses artificial intelligence (AI) technology to track and organize daily activities like exercise monitoring, nutrition advice, meal planning, sleep information and sun exposure alerts, has now raised more than $55,000 – more than double its campaign goal – on Kickstarter.
The watches, now available at early-bird pricing for its first backers on Kickstarter, also feature music and camera control, financial services capabilities as well as personal calendar/alarm and forgotten phone notifications. Uniquely, the Muse also gives users the opportunity to enjoy immersive entertainment experiences via connections to the Muse PlanetWatch platform for gaming fun.
“We wanted to provide a product that offered the wearers many features and simplified the lives of jetsetters, go getters and anyone who wanted to maximize their productivity – and we certainly found those people on Kickstarter,” said Muse Founder and CEO Sai Prasanth. “We’re very excited with the support we’ve received from our crowdfunding backers that enabled us to surpass our funding goal in only eight hours – and doubling our campaign goal so early in the campaign.”
Prasanth, an engineering design graduate from IIT Madras, is an underwater photographer, wildlife adventurer and climbing enthusiast, having scaled Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa and Mt. Elbrus in Russia, among other top peaks. Prasanth developed Muse with co-founders Ajay Yathindra, also an alumnus of IIT Madras, and Prathyusha K, from NIT Warangal.
“Tech gadgets have a reputation of needing to be maintained, while at the same time lacking in fashion with annoying battery charging requirements,” Prasanth said. “With Muse, we’re providing a solution with a stylish alternative people are looking for in a smartwatch.”
Muse’s AI-powered mobile app acts as a personal assistant. The hybrid smartwatch also has data-driven recommendations and services for users that also include providing restaurant recommendations, goal tracking and mapping support.

● Automatic Activity Recognition and Tracking
● Sleep Tracking/Sleep Alarm
● Automatic Time Zone Update
