Ring Alarm

Add this to, the "we wish this was real" category. But of course, it is just a well-designed concept piece.

The Ring Alarm won the 2007 Braun Prize and is the creation of designer, Meng Fandi. And it is what its name implies, alarms for your finger. There are two alarms (for two bedmates) and rather than waking each other up with an obnoxious alarm, it simply buzzes you awake.

The base serves as both a power source and programming device. We only wonder, would our buzzing finger wake us up or would it be too easy to throw it off and go right back to sleep?

Hopefully buzzing a finger doesn't have the same effect as sticking it in warm water!
