Crux

KU Design
Crux is a wearable device that aids rock climbers in completing routes, tracking statistics and information, and connecting with fellow climbers in their area. The device aids in the climbing process by interacting with nearby Beacons that contain helpful tips and tricks left by previous climbers. Each unique task can be completed by using touch or voice command. All of this information is then captured and stored onto the users personal website account to refer to later to find more detailed information on specific routes and statistics.
