Wearable Technologies

One type of wearable technology that I researched was the Myo Armband. The Myo is an armband that allows you to control music, video games, presentations, etc. with only the movement of your arm. The band uses the electrical impulses from the muscles in your arm and the movement of your arm to control whatever platform you are using. The Myo comes in two colors, black or white, and it sells for approximately $199.99. One feature that stands out with the Myo is the users ability to create customized gestures that will work with your laptop and band. Click on the links below to watch a short video about the Myo.

The next wearable technology I researched is the Go Pro Camera. This camera is a camera that can be worn instead of held. It will take 1080P video and 12mp pictures. This camera take 30 picture frames per second. The camera is also water proof. The camera is has built in Wifi. The Go Pro camera will also take night pictures and video. This is a great camera to use when riding a roller coaster, hunting, or mounting to a baseball fence to record the game. This camera can be used in multiple ways. It sells for around $450.00. There are many accessories that go with the camera to make it more useful. Click on the link below to a watch a video about the Go Pro Camera.
