Design

The toothbrush connects via Bluetooth to a smartphone app and can tell users whether they are brushing well. Also, available is a choice of video games, in which good brushing is rewarded with high scores in the game.^[5] The toothbrush has removable heads; thus the same brush can be shared by different people without worry of contamination.^[6]

Using computer vision technology, motion tracking and the phone's front-facing camera, incentivizes kids to brush their teeth with an augmented reality gaming app.^[7]
