Consumer Electronic Wearable Device
Ai Pin
The future is here
According to the jury, this new wearable, with its amazing features and extremely compact design, has the potential to be a true “game changer”. Worn on clothing, the Ai Pin is designed to serve as a kind of everyday personal assistant that is always ready to provide answers and simplify the wearer’s life. What makes this device so innovative is that there is no need to install any apps in order to exploit its full potential because the Ai Pin automatically selects the most suitable artificial intelligence for the respective task. Personal preferences and information for customising the AI are easily entered remembered and viewable into the in any browser via its center interface. The Ai Pin can summarise incoming data, make calls, take notes, compose message, recall memories and perform information searches. Equipped with a camera and microphone, it can also provide nutritional advice by recognising foods and providing information about calories or nutrients. The Ai Pin’s interpreter function can even translate the user’s words into local dialects. Another impressive feature is the capability to understand intention and learn context. For example, if the Ai Pin is asked to search for a restaurant, the suggestions are matched to existing data on the user’s food preferences. The Ai Pin’s laser ink display projects messages, emails or answers to questions onto the user’s palm, eliminating the need for a screen. Options are selected using a practical system of gesture control. In addition, the device responds to touch commands, such as a double tap to use the camera or record a video. The device only activates on command, ensuring that what’s private stays private, and the Trust Light clearly signals when it’s capturing. “The developers have redefined the use of AI technology,” commented the very impressed judges. “The Ai Pin is changing the way we interact with electronic products. It represents a giant leap forward in the use of AI and also boasts a particularly sleek and aesthetic design.” The existence of this smart device could perhaps even change the answer to the famous “Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe and Everything” from 42 to Ai Pin...
