In Iris's focus mode, people can enter a goal, after which the gadget will send a notification whenever they start doing something else. For instance, if a person wants to read a book for the next 30 minutes and enters the same goal in the gadget, then the gadget will send a notification to remind them about the task whenever they are doing something else.
Iris inspired from 'evil eye'
The gadget's shape was inspired from the evil eye, which is a symbol prominent in Latin America and parts of Asia. The symbol is said to protect people against bad luck.
“When I was designing Iris, I thought about how this could fit with more modern devices. The round shape of Iris is somewhat like the evil eye pendant, but simpler. Instead of the concentric circles, we have just one circle with the camera in the middle,” said Palliwal in his post.
