As a contrast to its name LunaR, this stylish and elegant smartwatch is strengthened by solar energy, yet it’s inspired by the Moon. It will provide you information and time without the need of electrical energy and recharge.
This smartwatch is designed by the chief designer Gavin Brown. Meanwhile, the transparent solar panel that is used in LunaR is pioneered by Sunpartner, which is a leading solar technology company in France. Its solar panel produces energy from various light sources while providing clear luminosity in the panel, according to Kickstarter .
LunaR could be charged with both indoor and outdoor light. It could operate and give power to battery life with just one hour of daily exposure.
You can do many things with this solar-powered smartwatch just like any other smartwatches. It features dual times zones, sunrise/sunset tracking, activity tracking, smartphone notifications, alarms and sleep monitoring, according to Android Authority .
It also has a colored LED display that has a ring of LED lights to indicate the hours. And when you are traveling, LunaR could display two-time zones. These include your local time, which is being shown through LED and your home time, which is displayed on watch hands.
Your local time is also updated based on the GPS by the app. If there is no GPS available, just choose the city of your choice and the correct time will be displayed on your watch.
