Titaner’s Magnetic Ring Ruler Clicks Every 10cm While It Measures Curves

Before glowing screens and silicon chips, engineers used slide rules to design skyscrapers and send people to the Moon. Calculation meant moving a physical object, not tapping an app, and there was a certain clarity in that, a feeling that your hands and brain were in the same loop. Some of that intelligence at the fingertips is worth bringing back in a world that defaults to calculators for everything, even quick conversions.

Titaner’s Tisolver is a 3-in-1 titanium calculating ring ruler that sits at the intersection of tool, instrument, and jewelry. It measures curves and straight lines, converts between metric and imperial, and calculates square area, all in a GR5 titanium body you can wear or clip to your gear. The company calls it a bridge between the physical and mathematical worlds, a way to put slide-rule logic back into something you can roll across a table.

Tisolver uses a high-strength magnetic lock to give a clear tactile and audible click every time the ring completes a full 10cm rotation. The equation is simple: the number of clicks times ten plus the current reading in the HUD window equals the total length. You can roll it along a cable, a curved edge, or a piece of leather, count clicks, glance once, and know the measurement without juggling a straight ruler and a flexible tape.

Side A has a 10cm metric scale and a 4-inch imperial scale laser-etched on the same ring. You snap Tisolver to zero with the magnetic feedback, align the HUD window’s red line with the metric value you care about, and the imperial equivalent sits under the same line. For longer numbers, you borrow a classic slide-rule trick, shifting the decimal, aligning at 4.2 instead of 42, reading the imperial, then shifting back, all without opening a phone.

Side B keeps a 10cm outer scale but replaces the inner ring with a square-area scale. When you roll and then align the red line with a side length, say 5cm, the inner scale shows 25, the area of a square with that side. Designers, leather crafters, and DIY people can measure one edge of a panel and instantly see coverage instead of doing mental multiplication. Flip the ring, and the same alignment also shows the imperial length.

The dual-locking traction system uses a soft rubber O-ring on the outside and hidden reverse anti-slip teeth on the inside that bite into the rubber, so the ring grips greasy workbenches or wet glass without slipping. The quarter-arc PMMA HUD window with a red reference line acts like a tiny scope, improving readability and protecting the finely etched scales. GR5 titanium, with a fine blasted matte finish, keeps the body light, corrosion-resistant, and warm in the hand.

The Titaner Tisolver lives on a lanyard around your neck, on a keychain, or clipped to a backpack, ready whenever a measurement or conversion pops up. When you are stuck on a problem or waiting for a render, the magnetic click becomes a small mechanical meditation, a way to keep your hands busy while your brain turns things over. The ring rolls, clicks, and resets, and that rhythm helps ease tension without needing a screen or app to distract you.

A titanium ring that measures, converts, and calculates without a single pixel in sight feels like a satisfying little rebellion against the reflex of reaching for a phone every time you need a number. For people who like tools that think with them, not just for them, the Titaner Tisolver quietly earns its place on your chest or in your pocket, turning quick math and measurement into something you can touch, hear, and rely on.

Amazfit Helio Ring joins the fray with a focus on athletes’ well-being

Now that smartwatches have more or less become more acceptable in society, it seems that the wearable tech market is setting its eyes on less conspicuous and less distracting designs for monitoring one’s health and fitness. And just like smartwatches in their early years, smart rings just aren’t resounding yet with people, though that could only be a matter of time. There hasn’t been much variety yet in this nascent market, which isn’t surprising given the physical limitations of a ring. Wearable tech brand Amazfit, however, believes it has something unique to offer, at least to athletes and very active people who are just as concerned with their mental health and recovery as they are with their steps and heart rate.

Designer: Amazfit

The niche that smartwatches have found themselves in seems to revolve around fitness and health, with features like activity tracking, health monitors, and the like. While those are indeed important metrics, they only represent a part of one’s overall well-being. Mental health is just as important, and giving your body and mind time to rest and recover is critical as well. Those are the points that the Amazfit Helio Ring is trying to emphasize in order to differentiate it from the likes of the Oura Ring, currently the leading name in this very young and small market.

In a nutshell, the Amazfit Helio Ring takes the same data collected by sensors inside the ring but interprets them in a slightly different way. Of course, it still records your steps, tracks your blood oxygen levels, and even monitors your sleep, but it frames that information in light of stress levels, your mental health, and most importantly, how well you’re taking steps to recover from those. Amazfit will propose actionable steps to guide you toward recovery, which unsurprisingly include getting enough sleep and meditation.

As for the device itself, the Amazfit Helios Ring is a bit of an outlier in that it doesn’t try to masquerade as a piece of jewelry. The dotted pattern on its surface is a dead giveaway that it is anything but luxurious, giving it a more rugged appearance that its target audience won’t mind anyway. In fact, it is intentionally designed for this group of people, using “skin-friendly” titanium alloy and ensuring water resistance of up to 10ATM, for those times when you need to take a swim.

The Amazfit Helios Ring can be used on its own, with or without an Amazfit smartwatch. Of course, you will need to pair with the mobile app, but you will also need to subscribe to the Zepp Aura rest and wellness service to really use the data it gives. A purchase of the ring will include a three-month free trial, but there are no pricing details available yet.
