Chris is refreshingly easy to use hardware, optimized for in-car Voice First use. Chris has the ability to learn like a human and adapts to learn over time every driver’s unique needs. Chris is designed for hands free calling, messaging, email, music and for navigation. The system uses an innovative speech recognition and gesture recognition allowing you to safely place the smartphone away out of reach and still get all the benefits from your apps and services. Chris has it’s own speech recognition system and AI infrastructure that interacts with your exiting smartphone. It does not use Siri, Alexa, Google or other system, it interacts with them.

@chrisschwartze Hey, we simply think it's such an nice and global name and it expresses a strong personality that we would like a Chris becoming everybody's co-driver ;)

I like this concept, and their product design looks inspired by Nest, but you'll need to take it out of the car each time you leave. Looks like it could be stolen easily. At Best Buy they lock up the Nest and just display the box.

@joshbarkin Thank you - I like that you like ;) Somehow round is the new rectangular, isn't it. We like the shape and it shows clearly that we will not just replicate the screen of a phone or a sat nav. We are developing very new UX consisting of voice, gestures and a reduced interface. Watch the video at Kickstarter where we show the concept. For every upside there is a downside: while Chris is really plug and play, i..e no installation required other than connecting with your phone, it could be easily removed from the car by a thief. Therefore we have designed a unqiue mechanism which allows you just to 'pick' the device elegantly from the mount and off you go.

@joshbarkin just pop it in the glove compartment? it has a special (patented!) mechanism for trivial connect / disconnect. Real voodoo if you ask me.
