The product Gecko makes your smart phone much smarter. Gecko can add all smart features to the smart phones, such as, it can secure, trigger, remind, capture, track and even find the objects in case of lost.

The device is packed with a TI CC2541 SoC, removable coin cell battery along with a buzzer and LED lights for sending alert signals. Gecko along with Gecko app can make life much easier as it creates endless possibilities by enabling number of applications like, by sending you an alarm if you have missed your daily dose of medicine, or letting you know if your pet or kid tries to sneak out of the house or to catch an intruder if the door opens without the owner’s knowledge. Gecko also comes with an extension port that helps to connect with other devices and trigger actions. This is useful for controlling music on phone such as changing volume or switching track by just a flick of your hand without taking out the phone from pocket. The hand-held Gecko is great to trigger the camera to snap a picture, shoot a video or even trigger multiple photos taken at set intervals. All this you can do by simply waving the arm with Gecko in your hand and it will trigger the picture. The device comes with four available gestures, including turning it to the left and right and shaking it once or twice. The best part of Gecko is that the Gecko app tell the owner where he has left his Gecko by remembering the last location where it went out of your phone’s range in case he has lost the Gecko itself.
