Setting yourself apart from the competition can be a challenging task, especially for those in the wearable technology space. But for the team at Pebble, differentiation has always been a key principle. Since their initial launch in 2012 on Kickstarter, the team has been consistently challenging the norm for smartwatches with their signature e-paper display, custom OS, and most recently their unique timeline interface. As a result, the team has raised over $20.3 million in their latest crowdfunding campaign, making Pebble the number one funded project on Kickstarter.
Starting today Uber will be integrated into Pebble with a one-of-a-kind experience. Users will not only be able easily get to where they need to go, but they’ll be able to do it right from their watch.
“Pebble is all about helping busy people get things done. A key part of that is people getting where they need to go–simply and quickly. In partnership with Uber, we’ve begun to do just that…and this is only the beginning.”
