Incredible things you never knew existed-CICRET BRACELET
Cicret was looking to develop an incredible technology that will turn your arm into a smartphone.
Conceived 12 months ago and designed over the course of 6 months, the Cicret Bracelet is a small wristband.
The Bracelet comprises a pico projector and a row of eight proximity
sensors that point towards the user's forearm. It operates as a
standalone device and, when activated with a twist of the wrist,
projects an Android interface onto the users arm, much like Chris
Harrison's Skininput Research.
The proximity sensors detect where the user's finger or fingers are and
allow them to interact with the interface as they would any other
Android device.
There are potential advantages to turning ordinary objects (or, in
this case, limbs) into mobile devices, but projected touch screens
typically lack the responsiveness and visual clarity of the glass
screens we're used to. This projected keyword, for example, delivered a poor typing experience.It should be interesting to see if the Cicret Bracelet can improve on the technology, to make something we'd actually want to use.
The device will allow users to send and receive emails, browse the web and play games. It will also be possible for users to pair it with an existing smartphone, answer incoming phone calls and activate the speakerphone functionality on the their smartphone.
Cicret is in the process of raising funds for the further development and production of the Bracelet, but Pommier says he expects the device to reach the mass market within a year and a half. The device could cost up to $400, he says, based on what the company's research suggests people would be willing to pay (sounds like a hard sell to us).
Cicret co-founder Guillaume Pommier tells that the first prototype is due for completion in about three weeks time.
