In 2008, Migicovsky, living in what was then called a “dormcubator”, started developing the idea

Egyptian and Babylonian astronomers used the sundial as a primitive form of today’s smart watch. Train conductors have utilized pocket watches to maintain a tight and precise schedule due to their accurate time keeping. Watches in the military have components such as tachometers, barometers, and atomic timekeepers that aid in more than just timekeeping. Wall Street uses watches to coordinate trades and exchanges in stock. Watches are depended upon all over the world without being thought of as much. When a wristwatch is used every day continually its value doubles not only in sentimental value, but the rarity of the timepiece increases.

Less than thirty years ago, while Sly and the Family Stone were topping the pop music charts and President Richard Nixon was covertly scheming to win reelection, the wristwatch was being transformed - from a mechanism of moving parts powered by an unwinding spring, into a battery-driven electronic computer.

While these technologies lowered the barrier to communicating and accessing information, they created other barriers. We are now used to social interactions with a literal barrier of screens that get in the way of face-to-face communication. For example, the conflicted social etiquette of being in a meeting with one’s cellphone can be addressed by wearables. With laptops and smartphones, the desire is to monitor email and text-messages but, in reality, the device’s interface draws the user into the device.

Through the SWOT analysis (see Appendix A), it is observed that Google had a strong lead in the wearable eyewear category, as well as strength in Glass’ ability on location-based advertising but their weakness in marketing, especially on promotion, caused them to suffer from the declining reputation. Google’s advancing technology and strong reputation allowed them to easily enter the wearable market and attract a huge wave of interest but the failure to take into consideration of the many adoptions in their product ultimately led to the negative reputation it quickly received. One of the biggest threats that can be observed is the growing competitive field of wearable technology. It can be seen that competition is getting tougher and it makes it hard for any company to make a breakthrough without any advantage. With the launch of Pokémon GO, it serves as an opportunity for Google to attract the public through their interest in AR technology. It would also allow Google to smoothly transition into the AR market through

Technology has touched the facets of our everyday life in a manner that some businesses are not able to keep up with the fast and accelerated rate of change. You would be hard-pressed not to see a trace of a software or hardware anywhere you go. Starting from smart phones, to smart homes, to smart cities, technology has by all means taken over propels’ lives.

Over the last decades, technology has advanced to make lives, if not easier, simple. One of the most convenient, successful, and popular technologies are those of mobile communication. In this technological era, the need for communication has pushed the development of mobile devices to the point where they are now considered intelligent. These devices also called smartphones, have exponentially grown since their creation to later take over the entire world. This is due to the reason that they have become, more than a need, a necessity. The high demand for these devices has given rise to big corporations such as Apple and Samsung. This essay will compare and contrast Apple and Samsung from how their smartphones revolutionized the world, to the newest smartphones, and their companies.

Who would have ever thought that a watch would represent progress in the world of online casino gaming. For many, the arrival of smartphones was considered to be the most mobile

The wearable device I have decided to report on is the Moto 360 smart watch from Motorola. This smart-watch which just recently entered the market has entertained a lot of curiosity due to the fact that it is contains a factor that other smart-watches do not have. The feature that this smart-watch boasts is that it has the traditional stylish design of a regular watch but with the same functional abilities of the other smart-watches currently on the market.

People started to imagine what could they do with their wristwatch in the 1940s, we can see intelligent watches in movies like Drick Tracy or Star Trek in the 1940, but then it was just a fantasy. The first big step on the way to the smartwatches was the introduction of the so called Pulsar watch in 1972. It has lasted for 20 years to develop this digital watch and the American Hamilton Watch Company has debuted with it. The quartz watches mean an enormous threat to the traditional watch industry. These watches were much cheaper and more precise than mechanical ones. From that time watches started to be more complex and electric.

In the modern world, technology dictates our day-to-day lives. A few decades ago, mobile phones were owned by specific few and mostly used for business. Today mobile phones are used for both personal and business activities (Rintamaoki et. al 2007, p.634). Phones are a sense of direction, communication and a friend to humanity. Apple products have a distinctive nature and a stratified class not owned by many.

This shows that the investments in the industry have promising returns along with some breakthrough innovation. Let me give you more interesting facts about the Pebble products and their features.

The recent advancements in the technology have made the coupling of the powerful processors along with the memory system very easy with the wireless communications and also high resolution based display to the wrist watch. This incorporation of the new technologies to the wrist watch has led to development of the smart watch technology. This smart watch has been specified in the name of wearable computer. People can be easily being in touch with the recent technologies and the on-going communication with the help of this smart watch. In case of the devices like mobile phones, pagers and the PDA they must be initially opened and then only they can be accessed. The instant-on paradigm used by these devices is the main success
