Since I was initiated with Nike's Fuel Band a couple years back I've been mildly obsessed with how many steps I take in a day, how far I travel on foot as well as how much time I spend just sitting around. When that wearable tech broke I tried out the Samsung Gear Fit, which I quickly decided was altogether too clunky, and recently landed on the Fitbit (thanks to Sport Chek). Fitbit has nearly perfected the wearable fitness tracker, but all of these devices have made me aware of how much physical activity I get (and don't get), and while the knowledge hasn't turned me into an exercise nut I have on my person at all times a reminder to get outside, to leave the car at home, to walk to lunch or meetings and to generally not be a pile.
Beyond the stuff that comes from immediate actions we can take which can improve or hurt our health (walking, not walking), there hasn't been anything on the market that tracks the world around us. That is, there won't be until local startup Tzoa launches their product after THIS KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN becomes a success. Watch the video below to check out the world's first wearable environmental monitor which measures air quality, then visit their campaign HERE and secure one.
