Meet four incredible concepts for wearable technology – Digital Look

The Argodesign consultancy developed ideas of wearable devices that seem science fiction. Excluding the category of smart watches, the company focused on innovative products that do more than measure heartbeat and inform you of new emails:. They bring superpowers

Check out:

1. Kineseowear

Invented 30 years ago by Japanese chiropractor Kenzo Kase, Kinesio the tapes are used to treat and prevent muscle injuries without limiting movement of the body and have become quite popular recently . Here, the idea is to use the material for constructing an artificial muscle that can, for example, indicate to the user the path traced by GPS in a physical way, pressing the left or right shoulder, depending on the correct direction. Another suggested use of the device is to support muscles during intense physical practice, avoiding wear.

2. Oujiband

The device is an electronic balance pasted into the wrist that uses a gyroscope to detect motor movements and, if necessary, smooth them. In practice, the Oujiband could help doctors perform perfect cuts, even if your hands tremble, artists who work with their hands and to improve the lives of people with motor disorders such as Parkinson’s disease.

3. Snapchat IRL
Play

Similar to a collar, the device detects the infrared light emitted by cameras during autofocus and flash fires in the face region, protecting the identity of who is using it. He still count on a headset that allows voice conversations discreetly.

4. LALALA

Play

Lalala is a headset that eliminates noise to help solve the problem of communication between people in very noisy places. Working with an infrared tracking technology, the device would be capable of reducing other sounds and enhance the desired. To hear someone better be enough to turn toward the person to make disappear all the other voices.
