 We are passionate gamers from Switzerland, who had always a dream. From an early age, our dream was to develop our own video game. Half a year ago, we decided to realize this dream. As a team we have been intensively working since one year on our topic. We were inspired by the games of Nintendo 64 and Playstation. As childrens of the 90's we have many systems and countless games, including The Legend of Zelda, Super Smash Bros., Mario Kart, Tekken and James Bond 007: Goldeneye played. Nevertheless, we always thought that some aspects of the games have to be improved.  Wir sind leidenschaftliche Gamer aus der Schweiz, die schon immer einen Traum hatten: Unser Traum war es von klein auf unser eigenes Spiel zu entwickeln. Vor einem halben Jahr haben wir uns entschieden diesen Traum zu verwirklichen. Im Team haben wir uns seit einem Jahr intensiv mit dem Thema auseinander gesetzt. Als Kinder der 90er haben wir viele Systeme und unzählige Spiele, unter anderem The Legend of Zelda, Super Smash Bros., Mario Kart, Tekken, James Bond 007: Golden Eye miterlebt. Doch fanden wir immer, dass einige Dinge zu verbessern sind.

The Original Jeans Sandal Boots As Seen On NBC’s Today Show By Promote My Crowdfunding
 High quality, cool and comfortable jeans sandal boots. The shoes that would get you compliments!   My name is Danielle Katz and I am a 29 years old fashion designer. I came up with the Jeans Sandals concept while browsing in my closet and finding a pair of old favorite jeans which I decided to ‘recycle’ into a new piece of clothing . Working out of my home studio, I started producing small quantities of handmade jeans sandals.  Soon, the sandals became a big hit on the streets and on websites and fashion blogs everywhere and were later featured on AOL, Yahoo, NBC’s Today Show and many other. At this point, I and my partners decided to proceed with large scale production to answer the big and growing popular demand.   We are ready for production! Together with my California partners we proceeded with investing lots of time and resources to guarantee production of the highest quality jeans sandals. We are now fully prepared to go straight to production of our first line of jeans sandals as soon as we successfully complete this Kickstarter initiative. These Jeans are made for walking! How can you be a part of it?To guarantee a successful initial round of manufacturing and delivery to supporters, we need to raise a minimum of $20,000. With a certain contribution level (listed on the side bar) supporters will receive a pair of their choice at a great discount (compared to future retail) along with a special gift. Successful fund raising exceeding the $20,000 minimum will allow us to offer more sizes and additional styles. How do I make a pledge?Simply select from one or more of the pledges to the right of this page. Follow the prompts on how to finalize payment and you're done! Fast and Easy! THE COLLECTION:             For our sandals we're using a 10oz blue indigo denim fabric, 100% cotton, which is woven especially for us! For our lighter wash we are using Sun blast \ Monkey wash and in our darker styles we are using Enzyme wash in order to get that great vintage, aged look.  TPR sole stands for Thermoplastic Rubber. ThermoPlastic Rubber is one of the latest technologies used to create mold-injected soles, including polymers and high tech resins. This sole offers superior comfort to ordinary die cut soles, because it is flexible like a traditional leather sole but also washable and more durable.   Dani.K sandals are made without the use of any animal components. So you can be sure no animals were harmed in the making of these shoes.                  Shipping is free to all USA & Canada destinations. For shipments outside the US please add $30.   Why should I pledge here for the shoes?- Without your support, our project may never take off and you could lose the opportunity to own a pair. -You get the special kickstarter promotional price! -You are supporting a unique, one-of-a-kind, designer initiative. -You will own a very cool pair of jeans sandals and a jeans bracelet which will get you complimented and make you happy. -You would be amongst the first to have them, before the holidays and in time for Christmas!

Live To Ride - The Legend By Promote My Crowdfunding
 Help Us Achieve These 3 Milestones:1. $5,000 for concept trailer of movie, from movie storyline 2. $4,000 for script revision and polish 3. $3,000 for the Casting Director's retainer Live To Ride - The Legend"The Legend" is a story about a man, Mike Macpherson, a high level executive at one of the top media technology firms in Chicago, and the only son born to Lilly and Duncan Macpherson. Mike was quite a surprise to the couple as Mike showed up when the couple were in their mid-40s. Father and son could not have been more different from one another. Besides the generational difference between the two, Mike was gifted with high intellect and a love for scholarly things, while Duncan was a man’s man who's hands were always calloused and smelled like oil and gasoline. Mike's passion was computers and technology, while Duncan's passion was Harley Davidson motorcycles, especially the magnificent 1915 Silent Grey Fellow that he inherited from his father, who bought it in the 1920's. Duncan had restored it to mint condition.  Mike rocketed through his academic years and went on to college, while Duncan wrenched away on his collection of classic Harleys surrounded by a small group of younger bike builders fascinated by Duncan's stories of the old days of motorcycling and the golden age of motorcycle racing. The passing of Mike’s mother seemed to bring the father and son a little closer together, but Mike, now married himself with a small son and totally consumed with his job, never seemed to find time for his father. That is until one day he gets a call with some really bad news. Mike's father is in the hospital diagnosed with terminal cancer. Mike rushes to his side. The doctors all insist on chemo and other horrifying treatments. The gritty old rugged Scotsman tells them all to go to hell. Father and son lock horns over Duncan's refusal of the ghastly treatment. Mike finally asks, "Then what the hell are you going to do?"   Duncan replies, “I'm gonna do what I always do. I'm gonna ride." Mike flips his lid. "WHAT?" Duncan answers, “That's right, me and the Old Grey Fellow are going out for that ride. And you know what? When my dad asked me to go ride with him, I went. What about you Mike; you going?" There is a silence between the two as they stare at one another. “I'll be leaving in 3 days,” says Duncan. Mike grabs his head with both hands and stomps out of the hospital room. Three days later, his heart heavy, Mike shows up at his father’s house on his own custom Harley. Duncan is sitting on the front porch dressed in his father’s riding attire from the twenties. This ride has always been at the top of Duncan's bucket list, this all important ride with the son he never got to really know. Now that Mike has shown up to ride, Duncan is not only surprised, but knows the old Silent Grey Fellow he would have ridden if alone, will not be realistic on this ride now, since the old machine's top speed might be 50 mph at best. But this is exactly what he was hoping for, because now Duncan gets to break out one of his favorite bikes from his custom collection. It's an evil, wicked, mean and nasty '48 pan head that looks like it was built by the Devil himself, and forged in the fires of Hell, complete with a large bottle of nitrous oxide to boot. It's not long into the ride, however, before all the unresolved issues between father and son erupt. Each one is looking for a resolution before there's no time to find one. Mike also gets to see a side of his father he never got to see up close, a side of his father buried away from Duncan's day's as a 1 percenter. Mike gets his first real look at this in a hair-raising, heart pounding ride through Monument Valley, when he and Mike are riding a little over the speed limit and a Utah State Trooper tries to pull them over. Duncan decides it's time to show Mike what it's like to "live a little," and takes Mike, six state troopers and a police helicopter on a 25 mile ride at 127 mph. It makes Mike furious. But it's just what the old man needed. There are other moments on this ride that bring deep emotion and a closeness between Mike and his Dad that they've both secretly wanted but never had, and they find the resolution that they were looking for.  Also, over the course of the ride, Mike finds out that his grandfather actually knew Arthur Davidson and Duncan tells Mike one of the most incredible stories Mike has ever heard. The story of how four men, William Harley, Arthur, Bill and Walter Davidson, built the most legendary motorcycle of all time, "The Harley-Davidson”. After the two return from this fantastic journey, Duncan soon passes away.  After a few months, Mike finally gets the nerve up to go and clear out his father’s house. Mike goes out to the garage where his father spent all his time wrenching on bikes and the shrine he built to the Old Grey Fellow. Mike stares at a photo on the wall of his father holding him upright on one of Duncan's old Harleys when Mike was just four years old. The weight of the silence nearly crushing him, he falls to his knees and weeps from his core.  After some time he clears his head and walks over to the cabinet where Duncan kept his father’s riding gear. Mike opens it and stares at the old riding wear. There is an envelope attached to the old leather riding jacket. Mike opens it up and unfolds the letter inside. It simply reads, "Ride it." Mike looks over at the old bike as it seems to glow. Mike gears up and takes the old Grey Fellow out and feels what it was like when life was not so fast. Unknowingly, Mike neglects to check the gas tank on the old machine and while out on the road runs out of gas. After being mocked by a rude passerby in a pickup truck, Mike pushes the old bike down the road a bit until he happens upon a small road leading to a house where an old man sits in a rocking chair. Macpherson, having left his cell phone behind, asks the old man if he can use his. The old man replies, “I don't have a phone, son." The old man asks Mike about the old bike and where he got it. Mike tells the old man a little about the great adventure with his father, but the old man wants to know more. Mike now having been told by his father all there is to know about the old machine, the men who made it, and the hundred years of history behind it says to the old man, “Well old timer, the story goes something like this...(the rest of the story).

SubShorts, Active Underlayers By Promote My Crowdfunding
 SubShorts is committed to distinction and individuality through design. We bring color and performance to a monochromatic arena. Your boring, monochromatic compression shorts just got radical! SubShorts bring style, color, personality, and performance to you!The StoryThe idea of SubShorts began when I noticed that a lot of Action Sports guys at the beach and lake were wearing underwear or athletic-wear underneath their board shorts. These guys were fulfilling a need unconsciously. I looked everywhere but I could not find any company or brand that offered a tailored solution. During my search I found that athletic compression garments, in general, are boring and dull. The options out there just don’t excite nor do they live up to relevant and emerging fashion trends. Your current compression short options are monochromatic, boring, lack color, design, character, and appeal. So I decided to go to work and create a comfortable (wet or dry) athletic compression short that was designed with personality, style, color, and a high level of performance. SubShorts bring distinction, individuality, and lifestyle to a monochromatic arena. Product1. Breathable, moisture wicking, 4-way stretch SubShort fabric. 2. Fast drying, polyester, spandex blend for superior comfort and performance. 3. Plush, 418 needle SubShorts waistband. 4. Prevents chaffing and rash while wet or dry. 5. Custom SubShorts colorways. Youtube Product Preview Link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLHiT5cyQbM Our working prototypes (pictured below) demonstrate the original designs of SubShorts. Our new Kickstarter colorways are found below under "Rewards". The Waistband Our plush 418 needle count waistband offers you comfort and firmness that won't leave your back end shinning like a full moon. The waistband shown in the photos is not the waistband on your pair of SubShorts. In order to get a customized 418 needle SubShorts waist band we need your help to meet our minimum order quantity (MOQ). Rewards Below are our colorways exclusive to our Kickstarter campaign. Once you've made your pledge and our campaign has ended, we will send you an email asking you for your size and color choice. We also pledge to send production photo updates of you SubShorts . We will keep you informed every step of the way.     TestedAt the Gym - Comfortable moister-wicking performance, without the dull and boring of your current athletic garment.  Surfing - We wore SubShorts underneath our wetsuit's. No need for a towel change post surf, and no board rash!  STRETCH GOAL $200,000We will introduce one new colorway if we hit $200,000 dollars! Best part is you get to choose which colorways you want by voting! Choose below.   Our Mission/Values1. Consistently improve design, comfort, fabric technology, and fit. 2. Source the highest quality fabrics. 3. Encourage adventure, distinctiveness, and well-being. The CrewI started working on this project because I saw a demographic that deserved style without sacrificing performance. It couldn't be found in the marketplace. So I took the dive, quit my job, and started going to work. I was not interested in beating around the bush. I called up my graphic designer, Chandler - he's worked for the likes of Skullcandy, Armor Active, Char Poles, and other action sports companies, and we went to work. We prototyped the design and partnered with one of the top boutique manufacturer agents that specialize in sourcing fabrics. Having them down the coastline, helped us to keep in close contact and communication. They have worked with companies such as; RVCA, Billabong, Stance Socks, and Nixon watches. Where Your Money Is GoingWe've spent over $3,000 of our own money in product development to get SubShorts to this point. But as with most all start-up retail businesses, there are minimum order quantities that we need to meet when sourcing fabric and components (it's kind of like being Little Mac from Mike Tyson’s Punch Out. We can get a KO with your help). If we meet our pledge goal, your money will go directly into the production and manufacturing of SubShorts and will allow us to move forward, furthering more radical designs for you.

iMotion – Haptic feedback virtual reality motion control By Promote My Crowdfunding
 Play your games and control your apps with haptic feedback (available for PC, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS and Oculus Rift). Real VR. What is iMotion?Do you know how in SciFi movies the hero sometimes controls the floating interface of a device with just a flick of his hands? Well, that's what we built. Our iMotion controllers provide a revolutionary way to have pinpoint-accurate 3D motion control across an incredible range of existing platforms and applications. iMotion also features airtouch (haptic) feedback, which is a unique addition to the motion control experience. Both of these features make iMotion truly unique and all that at an attractive price point.  Where can I use iMotion?iMotion creates a virtual touch screen, similar to a giant motion sensitive space in front of you. iMotion's unique haptic feedback feature provides physical feedback so you can "feel" a virtual object being touched inside a game or application. Any computer that can be controlled with a keyboard and mouse and a standard webcam can be controlled with iMotion. You can play First Person Shooter games or fighting games, or interact with 3D applications using your hands to move, open or rotate, and drag and drop 3D objects with high precision.  Use your body or your hand to control movements in virtual worlds. And, there's no integration required! Just install our middleware on your PC/Mac/Linux computer and game away! iMotion + vrAseThe iMotion device requires a camera, so the software can track the user’s movements with the help of the 3 LED’s embedded in the device. All modern Smartphones have 1 or 2 cameras built in. Since the vrAse device uses a smartphone, installed inside the virtual googles, and all supported Smartphone models have such camera(s), the iMotion software can be run on these phones and works with the iMotion controller. With the Smartphone inserted into the vrAse, the camera of the phone will not be covered. The Oculus Rift connects to PC’s. You will be able to either use the built-in webcam on your laptop or PC, or an external webcam connected to it, and then use iMotion together with Oculus Rift. Both vrAse and iMotion have a built-in accelerometer and gyroscope. This allows the software to also understand the related orientation and position of iMotion, even if for some reason the built-in camera is not able to see the iMotion device. The frequency on these sensors is more than 100 frames per second, meaning the latency would not exceed 10 ms, independently of the camera’s frames per second rate. Here is how you use iMotion with vrAse: 1. Run the application and plug in vrAse 2. Put iMotion on your hand, or both hands 3. The software will recognize iMotion and connect to it via bluetooth 4. The software (SDK) will reconstruct the position and orientation of your hand, checks button states and provides tactile feedback 5. You can use the iMotions buttons or movements (gestures) to play the game or control your application If a game uses our SDK, you will also be able to use Virtual Hands with haptic feedback in Virtual and Augmented Reality games or simulate a virtual touchscreen for mobile apps.  How do I use iMotion?Simply strap the iMotion controller to your hand, similar to a glove, and you are ready to control your PC or mobile with intuitive, natural gestures.  The iMotion controller is compatible with your existing games and applications, and allows you to replace your keyboard and mouse commands with gesture controls. All you need is the iMotion controller and our free toolkit (downloadable from our website). What does iMotion offer for developers?Use our Unity component to unveil new user experiences for your gaming content and applications. For Oculus Rift, by using our Virtual Hands SDK, you can even let users have hands in your virtual world (if you pledge for two iMotions, you get early access to this feature of the SDK). In most cases, no significant modification of the gaming content or application is required, just integration of our Unity component with input/output functions!  What is so revolutionary about iMotion?The iMotion controller has three LED lights to establish the body's position in 3D space. It determines the x, y and z coordinates as well as the angle of rotation and plane of elevation. iMotion houses a gyroscope and accelerometer, so you can use it at any angle and achieve a very high level of accuracy for action games and applications.  With an operational range from 1 to 16 feet, it's the only motion controller that supports full 3D motion control. iMotion works with any standard webcam. At 30 frames per second and an astounding 0.08 in accuracy, it is 6 times faster and 10 times more accurate then the leading console's motion tracking system.  For PC/Mac/Linux, the iMotion simulates the mouse so users can access any application in motion control mode, without any integration.` The touch feedback technology built into iMotion uses bluetooth to send a signal to a haptic vibro-sensor in the actual controller. This allows you to get instant feedback, and adds "feel" to the virtual screen in front of you. There are 5 unique feedback channels that can change intensity and duration to provide different levels of feedback to replicate the unique "feel" of an object, movement or incident in the virtual 3D space.  This is impressive technology, but how easy is it to use?If you can work a velcro strap and plug in a cable, you're good to go. iMotion is slim and sleek and attaches to any part of your body using velcro straps. It is small enough to fit in your pocket and carry around. Why not take a couple of controllers to your friends house, connect your mobile phone to a TV and play together?  How much does iMotion cost?With the backing of this Kickstarter campaign we will be able to offer the iMotion controller for an unbeatable price. Starting at just $49 (for early birds), you can be the proud owner of one of these amazing devices. There are multiple packages available to suit your needs and even developer packages, which grant you access to our team and support forum early. We invite you to help us make this the best motion control device on the market. Feature Summary:Features

Which games or apps are working best with iMotion ?We tested iMotion on many apps and games ranging from first-person shooters to Angry Birds to Google Earth and more. Here are just a few examples of how you can use iMotion right out of the box. We know you love the Oculus Rift and we do too. Get inside your favorite game world by attaching an iMotion to your belt or use an iMotion in your hand to control movement and actions in the world. One controller is enough for full 3D motion control and major actions. iMotion enhances and completes your virtual reality experience.   How we will use the funds:We’ve developed the fully functional prototype of iMotion and now we want to get it out for the world to use and play with. The R&D is complete, and now it’s time for us to focus on integration across all of the target platforms and for full-scale manufacturing. Once we raise money through Kickstarter, we will be ready by early 2014 with early bird kits and soon afterwards plan to roll out the first devices. As soon as there are enough early-adopters using iMotion to get more out of their existing games and applications, we hope to get the attention of developers. We want to inspire other developers to be even more creative and dream up new virtual sci-fi user experiences and scenarios with our technology. We need your support to make this possible: you can pledge or simply spread the word to friends and family.   What is iMotion Cloud?Intellect Motion has developed a cloud service to process, store and analyze motion control data. The iMotion Cloud will allow developers to assess users’ motion control data in almost real-time to enable interactive and multi-interface applications for gaming, sports, medical and many other fields. Developers can assess the motion control data with users’ permission and build applications that have never before been possible. Imagine the dating space where users touch each other’s hands, or your tennis coach helping you refine your shot. Or even doctors monitoring their patients while they do movement exercises, to improve their range of motion, all across multiple platforms using the Unity.  The iMotion Cloud will not only be the first to support motion control, but will also provide a range of analytics and indexes that can be used to evaluate the efficiency of user movements and enable developers to build independent metrics and ranking systems..

This is not just any kind of wood, in the East, it's considered to be an attractive, and special kind of wood. Sandalwood comes from the Sandal Tree, known scientifically as Santalaceae Santalum Album and in Sanskrit as chandana. In English it is called White Sandalwood or Yellow Sandalwood depending on the age of the tree. An evergreen tree that grows only in the southern areas of India, Indonesia and somewhat in Australia.
