Numerous functions
Thanks to the freely programmable haptic feedback, you can optimize the operation of your device for any usage situation – for operating the device on the ski slope with gloves, for guided control of the brightness based on the actual brightness, or for setting the recommended maximum volume, adapted to environmental noise.
Integration options
The slim design in combination with the low power consumption of the system enables direct integration into the housing on the one hand, but also the use as an accessory or optional attachment on the other hand.
