Puncho Boxing Glove Measures Force and Speed of Punches

Puncho is a smart boxing glove that measures the speed and force of punches and helps athletes improve.

The Puncho intelligent boxing glove, the winner of the 2014 Red Dot Award for design, is an innovative wearable training device that helps athletes improve their performance by tracking the force and speed of their punches.

Puncho uses integrated sensors to measure the different aspects of punches as the athletes train and then provides them with a visualisation of the results. The results are displayed on a small, flexible screen based on OLED (organic light-emitting diode) technology to motivate athletes to keep improving their endurance and stamina. The screen is thinner and lighter than regular LCD or LED screens, making Puncho a practical choice for boxers looking to track their performance and progress. Puncho comes with a companion app that allows boxers to track their progress and compare their results with others.

Puncho was developed by Emamidesign, an award winning German design company that specialises in innovative industrial design across a wide range of segments, including lifestyle, household appliances and electrical engineering. In 2014, the Berlin-based company was named the global leader in the international Red Dot ranking for best design concepts.
