It’s becoming somewhat of a running gag that any device or object will be made ‘smart’ these days, whether it’s a phone, TV, refrigerator, home thermostat, headphones or gla…
Second, it sucks that the wrist band thing is being tied with bullshit ai glasses. I would love to see that as a regular input device for PCs and smartphones.
Seconded, have long considered sub-critical neuron monitoring a really good in to ‘thought control’ without the privacy complications. No thanks neuorolink, stay out of my head (at least for many years until the implications and side effects shake out, fMRI also spooks me) but I’m fine with wrists and perhaps voicebox (ala firefox ), you know, voluntary stuff. What are the odds they’ve locked it up in patents and it’s now a tech dead end for the next decade or two…?
I think that someone already tried (and failed) to make a wrist band thingy in the past, so they probably can’t patent it. That is, unless they went out of their way to patent the sensor technology itself, or the UX, instead of the concept of a wristband thingy
