""Everything now is AI, and everyone has their phones on the table. It interrupts the conversation and the flow. We wanted to get rid of that and go back to the basics and have everyone talking to each other.""
""The device doesn't record automatically. Press a button, and the device begins recording CD-quality audio. Push the button again to stop.""
""The pucks come packaged with cards inspired by StoryCorps, designed to prompt conversations between family members. Some are aimed at kids; some are aimed at parents or other family members.""
Prego has launched the Connection Keeper, a device designed to record dinner conversations, developed in collaboration with StoryCorps. Fewer than 100 units will be produced, resembling a small puck. The aim is to encourage family interactions without distractions from phones. Users can record audio by pressing a button, with recordings stored on a microSD card. The device does not connect to the internet and includes conversation prompt cards. Shared recordings can be preserved on StoryCorps' website, emphasizing the importance of face-to-face communication.
