Goodwell releases the smart health connected and open source toothbrush

[ad_1]

Goodwell started from the observation that a user consumed no less than 300 toothbrushes in his life (or even much more …). Not only is this a big budget, but there is also a significant environmental impact. Rather than foolishly throwing away plastic every two or three months, Goodwell's smart health connected toothbrush offers a better alternative.

It’s not electric, but Goodwell is smart health connected. And in addition, it is open source. In other words, less DIY enthusiasts will still be able to benefit from a web interface (+ mobile application in spring 2015) developed by Goodwell to track the quality of their toothbrushing, while developers will be able to have fun coding all kinds of applications . Obviously, the community will be delighted to be able to enjoy the creations of the most geeks. On the technical side, the toothbrush incorporates a 3-axis accelerometer as well as a microcontroller, which leaves a lot of opportunities for the most creative.

Goodwell is currently in crowdsupply fundraising and seeks to raise no less than $ 12,500 for his particularly designer toothbrush. The starter kit is sold for $ 69 to which you will need to add an annual subscription of $ 79 to receive a new head each month. At this price, we are certainly far beyond the plastic toothbrush of the supermarket, but we remain below the competition toothbrushes of the Oral B SmartSeries style…

It remains to be seen who will be ready to develop an application close to that of Rainbow, the smart health connected toothbrush for children…
