About Vigo
How does Vigo work?
Vigo tracks patterns in your blinks and in your body's movement to quantify how alert you are in real time. The idea is simple - although your brain has a tendency to trick you into thinking you’re mentally fit enough to keep pushing on with your daily business, your body can’t hide when you’re tired. With an infrared sensor, an accelerometer, and a clever algorithm, Vigo knows you’re drowsy before you do.
Wearing Vigo is simple.
1. Wear Vigo whenever you need to be alert for an extended amount of time.
2. Connect Vigo to your mobile device through Bluetooth.
3. Customize when, and how, Vigo nudges you.
4. Tag the event when you’re finished so you can look back on the data later.
What's in a blink?
The average blink happens in 1/5th of a second - but there’s so much information packed in that small amount of time! Vigo tracks over 20 parameters in your blinks and watches how these variables change. This information, combined with data about your activity and head motion, allows Vigo to quantify your mental energy in real time.
When can I wear Vigo?
1. Wear Vigo to protect you from dozing off on long drives.
2. Wear Vigo at work to help break up your day and build more efficient routines.
3. Wear Vigo to keep you alert in class or during presentations.
Why wear Vigo?
Vigo nudges you when you need it.
We designed Vigo to give you full control over when, and how, the device nudges you. Choose whether Vigo alerts you when you’ve been idle for too long or when you’re starting to doze off by controlling the sensitivity of the algorithm. And how does Vigo get your attention when it detects you’re not your best? That’s up to you. Choose between a soft pulsing vibration, a discreet notification LED or your favorite “pump up” song to help you re-focus and get back in the zone.
VIGO tracks your alertness over time.
Vigo starts logging data about your alertness the moment you put the device on, and doesn’t stop until you take it off. The companion app visualizes the important information about your alertness in a simple, useful way to allow you to see patterns and make changes in your routine. Maybe you’re more drowsy on weekday afternoons, or maybe you’re in a better state in the evenings than mornings. Vigo helps you understand yourself better so you can plan your day accordingly.
VIGO gives smart recommendations.
Maybe you spend too much time sitting in one place, maybe you tend to get groggy early in the morning, or maybe you drive past too many exits on the road without taking a rest. Vigo finds the times you’re low on fuel and gives you ideas about ways you can change your routine to help you get in the zone faster, and stay in it longer.
VIGO doubles as a bluetooth headset.
Vigo connects to your phone and functions just like a Bluetooth headset with handsfree talking capabilities - so you don’t have to worry about missing phone calls, texts, or notifications from your friends and family.

The app is in addition to the VIGO"smart headset device. I bought one from the US for over $100 (I live in London, UK). It is a total scam. The headset is a failure on all fronts. Not once did it manage to sense a blink, nor could it be used as a Bluetooth headset. In fact it displays no services available when registered under a bluetooth settings. The company would not respond. Total garbage.

Unfortunately blink detection does not work for me. Even more unfortunate that I cannot continue in the App to at least let me use my Vigo as a Bluetooth handsfree device. Android App update was announced for end of April but is still not here.

I tired so many times with lots of different angles. I'm stuck at the part where it tries to detect my blinks and it just won't no matter where I angle it or no matter how slow or fast or normally I blink. I can't get past this part.

Its a useless thing. Can't get the blink detection to work at all. Got a debug tool from Vigo that shows the blink but the main app will never get that. It's been more then two months and I am not able to use it.

The blink detector takes LONG to capture your reading, and when finally does EN you are good to et away from the VIGO app to focus on your daily tasks, it lost your reading and ask you to recalibrate, and it takes more longer to calibrate every time to suddenly lost it again after just a few minutes! Please let me know you can give me some light at the end of my tunnel, I still believe in the product and the people involved.

No matter what I try I can't get this to detect my blinks. I'm pretty sure the arm of the device isn't even long enough to position it in the right place. If you are thinking of buying I suggest waiting until they've sorted out the kinks.

Not sure why, buy I can't get my vigo to connect to my phone via Bluetooth. When I clicked the device from my phone, it didn't do anything.

Can't get it to detect blinks. Asks to recalibrate within a minute if I can even get it to pass. Never seems to really detect blinks

The app keeps quitting and the device is unwearable with some glasses.

Well for openers your program sucks. I can't get it to track my eye movements it's always constantly searching for the Vigo,... Basically all I have is it a very expensive bluetooth headset that's it. It does not do what it is supposed to do or what it was invented to do. Because I'm about half tempted to throw it into a wood chipper because it falsely does not work.
