Gold and Diamond shows green for work, blue to family and purple to social: colors signal notifications so that they can keep the “their precious” away from you longer and thus gain time.
A startup francesa Spktrl developed an intelligent luxury ring with a diamante of 1.5 carats and elements in gold. The device aims to push the user from the mobile phone: flashes in different colors to warn only about urgent notifications.
The SPKTRL Light Ring is fueled by Artificial Intelligence (AI) with automatic learning. Adapt the color, rhythm and brightness of notifications based on user habits and contextual factors such as time and location. Based on these aspects, it applies filters so that only urgent messages are marked.
These are the colors that signal notifications. SPKTRL recognizes three categories of alerts, associated with different shades: Green for work, blue for family and purple for social.
Users can customize what messages want to see and when they want to see them. They can also adjust the hue, saturation and brightness of the light that flashes in the ring. However, the main colors remain. According to Katia de Lasteryrie, founder of SPKTRL, were chosen for their ability to be instantly recognized in different cultures and contexts.
The official said that “ color perception It is one of the fastest cognitive processes, interpreted by the brain even before form or language. ” He also pointed out that these associations have primitive roots.
“Colors helped first humans detect threats (blood, predators), opportunities (ripe fruit) and safe environments (vegetation, water). Therefore, they emerge as one of the most efficient and intuitive vectors to convey meaning.”
Lasteryrie added that the pulse rhythm also conveys a message: “Faster for urgent messages, slower to the least important.”
The ring will be available for pre-sale in the third quarter of 2025, scheduled for delivery by mid-2026. The official price has not yet been released.
