2.0 Wearable Devices Definition
The term “wearable device” refers to electronic
technologies or computers that are incorporated into
items of clothing and accessories which can
comfortably be worn on the body. *

Con: Distraction on the road, battery life, smaller screens
6.2 Google Glass
Google glass is termed as a wearable computer, developed by Google X Lab.
Display information in a smart phone-like hands –free format , that can interact with the
internet via natural voice command.
Technology Used
Eye tap technologies.
Android technology with 4G
Google Glass provide an experience known as
augmented reality, where images are superimposed
over what the user see in real life.
Pros vs Cons
Pros: Glasses for driving, No need to take your eyes off the
road.
Cons: Unusual devices aren't airport-friendly.
‘Nerdy’ look/ social stigma
6.3 AIR UMBRELLA
The Air Umbrella
The concept removes the plastic top from
the umbrella and replaces it with a wind
shield. The design of the Air Umbrella calls
for air to be sucked through the bottom,
then shot out of the top in a pattern that
mimics the standard canopy.
6.3.1 AIR UMBRELLA
7.0 Futuristic Concepts
8.0 Research Areas
Acute illness with medical wearable devices
Pill tells doctors when it's been swallowed
Edible micro-battery, that could power ingestible
medical devices
Wearable devices’ authentication
How to handle unsecure networks and hostile
environments
9.0 Discussion
Will this decrease patient time in clinical settings?
Will there be lower re-admittance rates to Emergency Departments?
Will it improve overall fitness, nutrition, and wellness?
Will it increase security?
Will driver/motorcyclist be safer?
Will these devices bring us closer to the Singularity?
Where are Wearable Devices on
the Technology Life Cycle Stacks?
Kendall’s Technology Life Cycle

obscurity, not reached full
potential)
Kurzweil’s Technology Life Cycle
1.
Precursor (dream or
contemplation)

Summary
Wearable devices are soon to be part of our day to day life
Wearable gadget are geared toward an easier transition to the
Internet of Things (IOT) notion
Medical, Fitness, Security, and Communication are currently the
main domain of where wearable devices used.
Although essential role wearable devices shall play, but it has its
own set of disadvantages such as distraction to drivers, the higher
likability be lost/stolen.
