Media and Information Literacy

1. Smart Glasses Like other  computers , smartglasses may collect information from internal or external sensors. It may control or retrieve data from other instruments or computers. In most cases, it supports wireless technologies like Bluetooth,  Wi-Fi , and  GPS . A small number of models run a  mobile operating system  and function as  portable media players  to send audio and video files to the user via a  Bluetooth  or WiFi headset. Some smartglasses models also feature full  lifelogging  and  activity tracker  capability.

2. Smart Glasses Using the  touch pad  built on the side of the 2013  Google Glass  to communicate with the user's phone using  Bluetooth .

3. Smart Watch A smartwatch is a portable device worn on the wrist that supports apps and acts as an extension of your mobile phone in some cases. Depending on the make and model, they have numerous functions that can have a big impact on day to day life.  A smartwatch is a portable device worn on the wrist that supports apps and acts as an extension of your mobile phone in some cases. Depending on the make and model, they have numerous functions that can have a big impact on day-to-day life.

4. Smart Watch Your Samsung Galaxy Watch comes with a range of great features and functions from tracking your activity and heart rate, to replying to emails or listening to music. Once you've got your Watch set up the way you like it, explore the features and functions to get the best from your Galaxy Watch.

5. Smart Shirt Smart shirts and body suits provide biometric data, such as pulse rate, temperature, muscle stretch, heart rhythm and physical movement, and the data are transmitted via Bluetooth to an app in real time.

6. SGPS GPRS Body Control General packet radio service (GPRS) is essentially a packet-switching technology that allows information to be transmitted via mobile networks. This is utilized for internet connectivity, multimedia messaging service, and other types of data transmission. GPRS uses an always-online function, which enables users to connect to different internet- and data-based services. With GPRS, mobile users can access mobile internet browsing, email, broadcasting, Short Message Service (SMS) and Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS).

7. Bluetooth Key Tracker Bluetooth trackers are small discs or cards that rely on short-range, low-energy wireless signals to communicate with your smartphone. Attach one to your stuff and, if it's in range, your phone can “ring” the chip so you can find it.

8. Smart Shoes Nike HyperAdapt  is gearing up to introduce the second generation of its self-lacing shoes which uses Nike  E . A . R . L . ( E lectric  A daptable  R eaction  L acing) technology that allows the footwear to adjust to the contours of your foot. Xiaomi has the  Mijia Smart Shoes  which are powered by an Intel Curie module based on the Quark SE system and has sensors that can rival Nike+ at a cheaper price point. Under Armour has developed their  Connected sneakers  series designed for “zero gravity feel” with  Energy Web technology  that gives back the same level of energy you exert in every stride.

9. The FeetMe insoles are covered with 25 pressure sensors, dwarfing the two to three sensors you’ll see integrated into a run-of-the-mill pair of smart shoes. This means that the entire insole and the entire foot is covered by sensors, allowing for a deeper analysis of the user’s performance. Despite the coverage of its sensors, the entire package only weighs roughly 80g per insole

10. The shoes have two pods that are mounted on either the heels or laces. Considering that the company’s founders were both members of the US Olympic Training Center team that designed a cycling model using 3D clips and power pedals, it comes as no surprise that accuracy and precision are at the forefront of their products. For example, the smart shoes utilize nine-axis motion sensors to fine tune their motion tracking feature. On top of these, RunScribe also provides power metrics that allow users to monitor the amount of energy needed to maintain their pace no matter how the terrain changes.

11. Smart Socks Sensoria smart socks are infused with comfortable, textile pressure sensors. They inform you in real-time when you are striking with the heel or the ball of your foot. Monitor your foot-landing technique as you run. Visualize the foot heat-map on the Sensoria Fitness mobile app.

12. Smart Pants The undergarments sense when a person's skin is under pressure because of immobility. Every 10 minutes, the electrodes send a shock to help stimulate muscles, relieve pressure, circulate blood and prevent ulcers from forming. For two years, the researchers have tested the devices in a small pilot project that showed promising results. "You get 10 seconds of jolt and it was [a] little tingly," Gem Humbert said of wearing the underpants for five weeks. She's been in a wheelchair for just over a year. The researchers hope to do a larger trial to show if Smart-e-Pants succeed in giving pressure ulcers a swift kick.

13. Smart Pants B edsores, are a serious health problem for many patients. For those with reduced mobility or sensation — such as patients who spend long periods of time in a bed or wheelchair — the risk of developing pressure ulcers is high. And once developed, not only are they painful and debilitating, but they can also lead to local infection, sepsis — and even death.

14. Smart Belt "We use a belt tension sensor. What it basically does is measure the pressure that is applied to the belt by your belly. If [the wearer pushes out] his belly a little bit you can see the graph is climbing. If he releases it, the graph is dropping. We use that characteristic in our algorithm to run the overeating [function].

15. Smart Ring A smart ring is a compact wearable electronic device that combines mobile technology with features for convenient on-the-go use. These devices, typically designed to fit on a finger like a traditional ring, offer functionalities like mobile payments, access control, gesture control, and activity tracking.

16. Smart Finger ⭐ Glove Robot Rehabilitation. Rehabilitation Robot Gloves are used for hand rehabilitation training. Rehabilitation training for stroke, hemiplegia and trauma. Help you gradually activate mirror neurons, restore brain motor neurons, carry out hand function rehabilitation, and achieve patient self-care ability. ⭐Bionic hand structure. Intelligently imitates hand movements, imitates hand structure production, masters independent movements, intelligently imitates hand gripping, flexion and other movements, and relieves hand spasms, stiffness and other problems. ⭐It can automatically drive hand activity, effectively exercise hand recovery, and also act on cerebral nerves and blood vessels to promote conservative treatment of brain injury and postoperative rehabilitation.

17. Smart Bracelet Smart bracelet tracks your daily exercise and your body's vital signs like Spo2, blood pressure, sleeping quality. Smartwatches allow you to make calls, send texts, and check your calendar or social media, and they often combine the features of a fashion accessory, fitness tracker, and light smartphone. On the other hand, smart bracelets or smartbands often have simpler designs and features and are focused more specifically on health and fitness.
