iNecklace - iCollar

open hardware
Open Source Hardware
iNecklace completely open source. The source code, circuit board files, schematics and CAD files are posted on GitHub. Mod & Hack away!
Wearable Technology
CNC machined from the finest 6 series aluminum for durability and beauty. The iNecklance a remarkable accessory. Machined with a "screw in backing". The pendant contains a circuit board with pulsating LED and battery.
High quality silver chain
The pendant comes strung on a 18" long sterling silver 1.6mm diamond-cut curb chain that has been treated to inhibit tarnishing. The necklace is placed in a black velveteen box, ready to given as a gift!

Pop In, Screw On
Before your fancy event, just pop the battery in, screw the backing and your iNecklace will gently pulsate for up to 72 hours.

Reverse engineered
The "pulsing" is similar to the "breathing" LED pattern on many laptop and computer systems. The default pattern is reverse engineered from the Apple "breathing" LED on Macs, MacBooks, iMacs, etc.
