Secret Drink Roulette on a Wearable 8×32 LED & Touch Sleeve
Tap Pad 3 to spin a pixel cursor through 12 classic cocktail or mocktail orders across the 8×32 RGB LED matrix and freeze tonight's pick, then answer the staff by scrolling the name on the washable $199 sleeve.
- No more “surprise me”: Pad 3 spins a decelerating pixel cursor across 12 cocktails, locks the pick, and scrolls the full order name.
- Re-spin after a spill: 5 sewn fabric pads keep working through a wet round; re-spin with a knuckle and never unlock a phone at the bar.
- Pre-loaded & customizable: Ships as one of 50 built-in modes; edit the 12 drinks or add your local specialties in the Sleeve Studio app.

Why 'Dealer's Choice' Fails When You Can't Decide at a Loud Bar
- Decides for you: A spin lands one of 12 picks and scrolls the name, so you never squint at a paper menu under strobe lighting.
- Always readable: The whole menu lives on your forearm — point at your arm instead of shouting “surprise me” over the bar.
- Peer-reviewed textile roots, shipping hardware: The Oct 2026 NUS Nature paper coined “garment GUI” with a lab-only woven pixel fibre (not for sale); our shipping $199 sleeve uses 5 sewn conductive-fabric pads and a removable 8×32 LED pod.
What Each Forearm Pad Does (Pads 1–5)

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I edit the 12 drinks or add my local bar's specialties?
- Yes. Open the Sleeve Studio app, replace the menu list in plain English, and send the new mode to your sleeve over Bluetooth in seconds.
- Is there a mocktail option if I'm not drinking tonight?
- Tap Pad 1 to flip between the full-bar list and a zero-proof list, so the roulette only ever lands on a mocktail when you switch it.
- How do I stop the roulette repeating a drink I already had?
- Hold Pad 2 to enable the no-repeat filter, which dims any segment already used tonight until you clear the filter by holding it again.
