Wearable Computing

I’ve never been a fan of those Bluetooth ear pieces. Maybe it’s because a lot egotists wear them, trying to prove how important they are to everyone. I see a guy walk into a room wearing one, and I immediately think I’m dealing with a jerk.

There’s something different, though, about the WIMM Platform. Is it the design? The way it’s worn? The multiple ways you can use it? All of the above.

You can wear it on your wrist, clipped to your shirt, or hang it around your neck.

According to the press release, it will come with

  • Always-On Access – Dynamic activity feeds and alerts on a 1.4 inch display
  • Full-Color Touch Screen – Rich visual experiences and effortless navigation
  • Robust Connectivity – Connects to Internet via Wi-Fi; Bluetooth pairing
  • Accelerometer and Magnetometer – Built in sensors for accurate motion tracking
  • Web-based Management – Manage device and add applications through any desktop or mobile device

Yeah, I’d give this a try. Definitely. Would you? Check out the video for more convincing.
