Here are some interesting startups we spotted at Tech in Asia Tokyo 2015

bootstrap-alley-startups

It’s official: we have 194 startups exhibiting in our Bootstrap Alley Tokyo 2015. In case you missed it, here’s a breakdown of the participating startups.

With so much buzz on the conference floor here in Tokyo, we want to help you filter your way through the crowd. As such, here are a bunch that we think really stand out.

EYES, Japan

EYES, Japan seems to be attracting a lot of eyeballs with their product, Fukushima Wheel. Essentially, the product reinvents cycling with a specially outfitted bicycle. It uses sensors to measure environmental data in your city like humidity, temperature, and even radiation — yes you read that correctly. Its smartphone app offers a unique opportunity to explore the city, letting cyclists visualize their exercise levels and carbon emissions. Gyro-stablized LEDs on the bicycle wheels also display time and location-based information.

Check out this person having fun with the product.

Vibease

It seems like Vibease is the most unique startup to appear at our conference today. The world’s first wearable smart vibrator piqued our attendees’ interests with its unique product. The startup claims to bring Fifty Shades of Fantasy to life!

Vibease is compatible with most Androids and iPhones. It delivers strong vibrations with customizable pulsations to provide the most realistic experience. Just because we’re techies at a nerd conference doesn’t mean we don’t need this product!

Bazaar Entertainment

Another eye-catching startup (quite literally) is Bazaar Entertainment, which aims to be a mobile platform for the next billion gamers using peer-to-peer technology. The Bazaar app is free to download and is a promising solution for emerging markets, where access to the internet is often limited.

Nexpaq

This startup seems to have attracted the crowd with its unique offering — a modular smartphone case that lets users seamlessly customize, enhance, and add new functions to existing smartphones through the use of small components.

Nexpaq currently boasts 12 available add-ons, including an extra battery, breathalyzer, temperature and humidity sensor, an SD card reader, and more. Nexpaq is slated to launch in January 2016 and is already available for pre-order.

PossessedHand

If this product’s name is not intriguing enough, just wait until you see what it does. Living up to its name, PossessedHand controls the user’s fingers by applying electrical stimuli to the muscles around the forearm.

It can control the motion of 16 joints in the hand, and is even powerful enough to help beginners channel their inner guitarist by varying the timing and intensity of the shocks.
