Smart Ring

Here’s Apple’s Idea for a Smart Ring

Jacob Kastrenakes | October 1, 2015


Apple has some interest in another wearable: smart rings. A patent application published today describes an interactive smart ring that could work in conjunction with larger devices, like a phone. As Apple describes it, the ring could have a touchpad or a touchscreen, it'd likely have haptic feedback to let a wearer know when something has happened, and it could include a microphone for dictating commands. The ring might even be able to determine what you're writing by following the motion of your hand.

The Smarty Rings project, based in Chennai india, promises waterproof, stainless steel rings that will connect wirelessly to your smartphone. Source: http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/smart-ring-would-put-phone-updates-controls-on-your-finger-1.2459918
