The article I read on it in an it mag seemed to indicted the developers were French. It's all Web design, no real hardware, and two of the guys "developing" it won't give their names because they might lose their jobs with current employers.

The IDEA might be real, but far from a prototype....

Do they also sell hoverboards?


And they are also marketing HOME FUSION REACTOR ELECTRICAL GENERATORS too.

The miniaturization of all the components of a tablet and battery that will fit into a wrist sized device have not been invented yet.

Next thing, you're going to want to do PP work with a device this limited.

The Israelis can be pretty cagy. Another scam? Who really knows. There are things on the market today that are similar but a much simpler, usually single function, use.

Not Isreali, French. This is a video they created to raise money for their idea. Pure marketing and venture capital. Good luck.

No comment on whether this technology is current or not but if you look closely at the video, you can see that the image does not move with the arm/bracelet. That suggests to me that the image was added after the video was shot.

Watch closely at the edges of the image on the arm, it looks superimposed.

Pretty cool if it is real. But I don't want one.:) I would love to take a hammer to the cell phone I have. And if I did it to this one it would hurt.:):) When I retire and not have a work phone, I will be a happy man.:):) With no phone!!!

Yeah, I read this before> Hype or not, it remains to be seen. Those Isrealis can be pretty tricky. :mrgreen:

Really cool. Looks like light from the bracelet projects the image onto the arm. Wonder when these will become available?

Thanks

Who knows at this stage. Lot of hype and there appears to be a lot of smoke and mirrors. I guess we will just have to wait and see. :-D

If this thing is for real and has a camera, look out for "Uppies".

Don't ask.

This whole ad is a spoof since the technology doesn't exist yet for a full CPU and projector system having a full WIN8 operating system. The CPU die size alone is the size of a quarter and the power consumption for LED projection would require a battery the size of a pack of cigarettes.

This wrist computer system is a PIPE DREAM.
