You can now use your hands as a screen to display emails, notifications from social network accounts and even incoming calls.
Ritot, a wristband concept device, is the very first "projection watch" that displays alerts directly onto a user's hands.
The company behind Ritot has yet to show off a working prototype, however. It has raised an some US$375,00 on Indiegogo, a crowdfunding website, which goes to show there is a demand for this kind of device.

Ritot uses light from a pico projector to display customized content directly onto the hand of a user.
There are two models: an aluminum bracelet for unisex use available in four sizes and colors (black, white, black-gold, and brown-gold) and a sport-brand made of colored plastics (yellow, blue, black, green, red, and white).
Ritot's main feature is a digital clock but users can also connect it to their smartphones. In that way, they can receive vibrating alerts if there are incoming calls or messages that pop out instantly onto their hands.
If users want to dismiss the alerts, they just simply shake their hand or just wait 19 second for the alert to disappear. It has a one touch-sensitive button that allows manipulation of the display.
Ritot is compatible with Windows Phone, iOS, and Android devices. It has a unique charger. When charging, users can choose from one to 20 colors to project onto their hands.
Analysts expect Ritot to focus on notifications, and fitness and health apps projections.
Ritot will be available at US$120 starting in early 2015.
