Welcome to the Backerjack podcast, where each week industry analyst Ross Rubin and tech blogger Steve Sande bring you a sampling of crowdfunded projects from Kickstarter, Indiegogo and beyond.
This week, we picked three campaigns to discuss:
Neeo - the thinking remote: A remote that not only works with common consumer electronics, but acts as an intelligent controller for home automation as well. Vikaura Screen: An e-paper "frame" with Bluetooth connectivity that comes in three different sizes and displays more than just photos. Immersis: A pricy, but impressive game projection device that can turn any room into a shared virtual reality gaming environment.Retailers, manufacturers and investors seeking the next category, product or feature should take a look at Backerjack's new Product Innovation Pipeline Reports (PIPR), which track the most innovative products in a number of categories. Ross discusses PIPR and how it can help buyers find products that are attracting buyer dollars even before launch.
We'll be back with Episode 4 of the Backerjack Podcast next week. Be sure to tell all of your friends who follow crowd funded projects about the podcast and make sure they subscribe on iTunes at https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-backerjack-podcast/id955301362?mt=2
