This petite square-shaped computer sits on your chest with the help of a magnet.

You interact with it primarily through voice, but also using gestures on the front-facing touchpad.

One notable aspect of the Pin’s otherwise minimalist appearance is that above the touchpad is a module with a camera with an LED light to show when the device is in use, as well as something slightly unexpected: a laser.

The laser can beam images and text onto your hand using a technology that Humane calls Laser Ink.

The laser picks up on gestures you make with your fingers in midair.

Due to the fact the Pin has its own phone number, it’s a totally standalone device.

The Pin pairs with your headphones or speaker to play music via Tidal.
