A company is designing shoes that vibrate when a Pokémon is near
Pre-orders are being taken next month
Pokémon Go players rejoice: your task of Poké-hunting and route to becoming a Pokémaster just got a whole lot easier.
Technology company Vixole is designing a shoe that can link to your smart phone via a thin LED layer and vibrate when a wild Pokémon is nearby, so you can keep your phone pocketed and your eyes on where you’re going.
Other ways it can function is linking to Google Maps and vibrating when you need to make a turn, and vibrating upon receiving a call or text.
It’s called the Vixole Matrix, and is not only practical, but sleek and stylish as well.
Unfortunately the footwear is not on sale just yet, but will be available for pre-order with the launch of a Kickstarter in September.
