Company Summary
Shockatoo enables self-expression in the real world. Online, choices are unlimited. But in the real world, self-expression is very limited: tattoos, t-shirts, bumper stickers. We make wearable technology – think tech meets tattoo. “Show” your mood, status, or what you’re about at that moment. Digital items that display designs and messages, light up, move, and react to your environment. Control it from a smart phone and change designs any time.
