Using Apple’s iPhone while wearing gloves has always been a tricky scenario, but Quirky seems to have a solution that doesn’t involve sausages. The company has unveiled Digits, a set of conductive pins that can be attached to your existing gloves. With this solution, your fingers will be in contact with the pin, allowing the capacitive touchscreen on the iPhone to recognize the signal from your fingers. Digits are available in packs of four and are available on pre-sale at Quirky for $12. Bear in mind that pre-sale means that the number of orders must meet a predetermined quota before manufacturing will begin.
