Does the LOOMIA have a competition at the moment or will have in the future? Any problems with the manufacture of this device will may appear?

The smart textiles space is growing everyday, projected to be a 135B dollar industry by 2025. That being said, folks are going about it different ways. We've seen a lot of focus on conductive ink (we explored that ourselves) but there are some scalability/environmental/substrate challenges that have prevented widespread adoption. Happy to say LOOMIA has worked closely with most any "competitor", so I tend to call them "collaborators" 😉

Nearly 4 years of development to date on the LEL might provide additional context. LOOMIA is not a brand new company starting from scratch, and we have strong relationships with our manufacturers that has allowed us to be efficient with development. In addition, TILE leverages LEL base technology. As you may have seen in today’s hardware space ( Nest, Fitbit, Alexa) hardware without software isn’t a complete product. Our team has a computer science P.h.D and a masters in design and technology engineer . On our team, we can fully build samples from hardware to software and connect the two. Our manufacturing partners produce hardware for Honeywell and has a team of expert electrical engineers, to say nothing of their production capacity, It’s important to know the strengths of your team, which is why we have partnered with experts in the blockchain space such as STORJ and will build on top of blockstack for our product. We see ourselves as a product company above all, as we will acquire the needed expertise to make a complete system for the user.

We all know to a certain point there is nothing truly new under the sun, but we are pretty close. There have been many forays into the wearable space using very different methodologies, graphene, conductive inks, wires embedded into textiles, and we'll leave it to the market to determine the pros and cons of those. As it relates to our business model, we are pretty unique. We most closely mirror, on the B2B side, Gore-Tex, which is a functional fabric that is sold B2B to brands and manufacturers, with a licensing model and specific method for integration. Their brand stands alone to represent superior performance for the functionality they offer. On the data side, there are many different models centered around paying people for clicking ads, collecting your digital data trail for certain returns, but there isnt, to the best of our knowledge, a 360 merging of functional textile circuits, actively performing, collecting data, paired with a decentralized marketplace and platform for trading, storing, and leveraging that data.

We feel pretty confident we are uniquely positioned in the space, but every participant of course is responsible for their own diligence and judgement of course.
