Spotted at Cornell - Kaseflex

I am a huge supporter of entrepreneurs and someday hope to take the plunge. I am always hearing about awesome things students are working on and have decided to start sharing them. I mean what's classier than getting rich on a sweet, creative and innovative ideas while having the guts and passion to make it a reality. Pretty hot and classy. Welcome Kaseflex.

I heard about the development of this new product a few weeks ago on campus from the elabs. Kaseflex are conductive pads that allow users to type on touchscreen devices while wearing gloves. Attached to the fingertip of a glove, one small KF Tip enables electric charge to flow from one's bare finger to the screen.

"Kaseflex is a company started by Wendy Cai and Mathew Sevin at Cornell University. Our hope is to make everyone's winter seasons a little more enjoyable. With the touchscreen technology becoming immensely popular, it is essential to keep your hands warm while typing on the go. For some of you this means no more having to take off your gloves while on the ski lift. For others it means you can finally throw away that pair of touchscreen-friendly gloves which forgo comfort, style, and warmth. Kaseflex offers the best solution to make your gloves touchscreen friendly. Our signature tips allow you type while wearing your gloves. Enjoy."

Here is a quick video demonstration of the Kaseflex Tips


The tips are only pre-order right now, but will be available in stores soon. The pre-order price is only $7.99 and will sell retail for $9.99. I am excited to see where this product goes and Go Big Red Entrepreneurs! I think this product could be a hit in the colder parts, especially with students, skiers, and snowboarders.
