Though technology is taking over almost everything, yet there are a certain things that clearly do not need it and are good on their own, for example a mouse trap.
However, a company called Wakefield Technologies certainly does not believe this, as it has been trying to raise money for its ‘Wireless Mouse Trap Monitor’ on a crowdfunding platform Kickstarter. As The Verge explains, the device is for people who are too lazy to get up and check on their mousetraps.
The concept is that the trap monitor is a yellow box that looks like a cheese Lego that is connected to an app on the smartphone via Wi-Fi connection. With the help of an app, the user will be notified on their connected smartphone when the mouse trap has been tripped. When completely charged, the trap monitor will last for three months.
This device maybe is helpful for some but mostly it is something that people do not really need. However, if anyone is really interested in the innovative device, they can back it up on Kickstarter but still there is no surety if the device will be successful in crowdfunding or not.
