Hi—I'm Guillaume, a Creative Director from Paris now living the Dutch life in Amsterdam. Until I save up enough money to realize my dream of becoming a star-faring astrotourist, I’m realizing new, transformative ideas, back here on Earth.

How to digitalize the world's most social gesture?

Context Like, Swipe, Poke, Follow... If our digital world is full of social gestures, we may have forgotten the most iconic of them all: the High Five.

Mission How to restore justice and finally bring the High Five to the digital era?

Idea Gimme—the High Five Glove: a connected glove that tracks and shares every High Five you do.

Above Launch Film for Gimme.

Features

Mmm, at first glance, it just looks like another stupid hipster-friendly product... Now what? Well, the thing is Gimme isn't just a glove. It also tracks and shares every High Five you do.

Once paired with your smartphone, Gimme gives you the strength with which you've just hit your buddy's hand.

Gimme also saves the exact locations where you performed all of your palm smacks.

Above An example of how Gimme shows up on your feed.

Each High Five gets instantly shared on your Facebook or Twitter feed, letting all your friends feel the BAM—just like if they were here.

Above Close up on the glove's Bluetooth Low Energy sensor.

How does it work?

Gimme embeds a Bluetooth Low Energy motion sensor. So once you feel and hear that gratifying BAM, Gimme feels it too.

In more concrete terms, a 9-axis accelerometer records all of your hand’s movements and then, here comes the magic. Thanks the beautiful poetry of hundreds of code lines, Gimme is able to make the distinction between what IS a High Five and what is NOT.

Above Making-of the first series of prototypes for Gimme.
