Thermal camouflage should be the next fashion trend.
From tiredness-detecting driving glasses to shin guards that judge the performance of footballers—we’ve come a long way since the early days of the pulse-measuring smart watch.
University of Toronto Engineering researchers have developed a super-stretchy, transparent and self-powering sensor that records the complex sensations of human skin.
A new device announced ahead of CES can capture and interpret your visual cortex. Hope or hype?
IDC predicts that global shipments of wearable devices will hit almost 190 million units per year by 2022. When we think of wearable technology, we no longer just associate it with the consumer space. In fact, wearables within the enterprise is now a well-discussed topic. However, despite growing interest, we’re yet to see the technology […]
Consumers are expected to take advantage of falling smartwatch price points.
The team of researchers at Kaunas University of Technology (KTU), in collaboration with the Department of Geriatrics at the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences (LSMU), are developing a system that monitors the health conditions of the elderly. The system consists of several sensors and a controller—a portable device on a neck strap—that automatically calls for […]
