Top 5 Videos on Inspirational Bionic Wear
These are my top inspirational bionic video's because of the emotional impact they had on me. I find it beautiful when technology can help a human to gain back what they have lost and create new meaning to beauty. There is something to say with the idea of integrating into a cyborg. I think we will be protected more and be able to enhance our performance level to better our world by becoming techno-craze-phenom-digital walkers.
My other thought on these videos is that I've realized that it honestly takes that one event or person to impact your life in a big way. My advice to keep adapting and let that tragic or pivotal moment be the jetpack to your life, just shoot off to do amazing things.
What moments in time have changed your life? Do you know someone with wearable techwear that helped improve their life? I want to hear your stories!
Best Regards,

Wearable Nixie the Bracelet Cam-copter
Is it a bracelet? No.
Articles
Is it a camera? No
Is it a helicopter? No
It is actually all three.
This amazing invention is called Nixie,
The creators are the team leader-Christoph Kohstall, project manager- Jelena Jovanovic, and team member Michael Niedermayr and hopefully will win in the Intel's Make it Wearable challenge. They have my vote if they can get it to work the way they envision it.
I've been wondering when someone would come out with a camera that will be accessible, flies and snaps pictures when we don't have any hands to do it ourselves. I know that I'm always shuffling around to find my phone or digital camera and end up missing moments because of those few seconds I wasted to find what I need. I would sincerely enjoy wearing this drone bracelet and have it take off to capture moments that I want to capture and come back to me like a boomerang on my wrist. Picture the idea that if a family member is climbing a mountain or on top of the roof or want to get aerial view of someone fire hooping at a festivals. Maybe even capturing yourself watching your favorite band, but don't feel like taking out your cellphone. This science fiction like concept turned into a reality totally makes me drool!
I hope to see this drone to become more of a stylish look for guys and ladies a like to wear. Maybe even put diamonds in it to make it a high end desired look. I would want it in black and be able to put cool decals on it to customize it. I would also like a security feature on it so others can't use it. Maybe even an app to be connected to my drone. I can picture many possibilities and facets for this item.

Monitor your Alcohol Intake through Tech Clothes
Drank too much and now throwing up everywhere like a grass sprinkler? Do you wish you hadn't drank that much in the first place or had a friend to warn you? Have you had sharpie drawn on your face and blasted all over social media platforms in all sizes and shapes?
Maybe it was funny the first time...
Well before any of you ever get to that point again let your clothes do the talking. What do I mean? There is a new tactic developed by South Korean artists (Younghui Kim, Sanghwa Hong, Kyungmee Kim, and Kwanu Park) and they invented a smart prototype clothing line called Metamorphosis. These prototypes come in two wearable forms that express different levels of alcohol as consumption increases:
Both of these prototypes use a combination of alcohol sensors, led lights and miniature motors to activate the clothing. These smart clothes display art, beauty, and culture while mixing in technology to conduct a useful purpose. I believe that these prototypes are the start of the world of wearable techwear. Our culture will shift to making our clothes have more of a purpose other than preventing us from being naked. I think the trend is heading in that direction and more people will want to join in to the wearable techwear market because it will make a more convenient and accessible lifestyle so we can do more things that we love than worry about the small hassles in life. The only subject I will criticize on these smart clothes is there style. I think if these prototypes want to be successful they should adopt western culture when coming up with their next series.
What do you think of these smart wearables?
How will this shape our culture?
Feel free to let me know what you think! @DameofTechWear

Apple Watch To Get or Not?
To the Apple Users and Wearable Techwear admires:
James Bond, Dick Tracy, Batman, Penny from Inspector Gadget, Star Wars, Star Trek, Spy Kids, Men in Black, what do these characters, TV shows, and movies have in common? That's right they all had cool smart watches of some type or another. Can you believe that the smart watches that we have marveled through fiction are now our reality? After dedicating some time in reading articles about the Apple Watch I believe it's a perfect example of where humanity wanted to go all along. These wearable's will find their way in the market just like the path of the iPhone, iPod, and iPad. I will be discussing the following:
Market
The market that they appear to be appealing to for now is toward the fitness market because of the convenience that wearing a watch has for fitness people instead of carrying around their clunky phones while on a jog. They can multitask task faster by keeping up with their activity with the Move Ring graphic app, accelerometer, measure heart rate and be encouraged to do so with the apps on this product. Another multitasking aspect is being apple to pay for items with the watch and I can imagine if the runner is looking to grab a bottled water while running they can forget about their wallets and just use their watch. Fitness advocates can even make phone calls while on the go.
I am very interested in finding out about this Apple Watch like everyone else and I don't think I'm going to be skeptical about it at all because it will all work out in the end. I think it represents a pivotal moment in time of where we are now compared to where we were with the release date of early 2015 coming up..why not try it out? Who knows maybe it will change my future and I'll be able to transport myself with it one day!
Thanks for taking a look at my blog. I would love to hear your good, bad, and ugly feedback on what you think about the Apple Watch.

Future Market
The potential market that this watch can go out to are nurses. I think there is a huge market for this field because of the features that the Apple Watch will incorporate on their product. I mean last time I saw my nurse practitioner I saw her use an iPad to deal with my information. How about instead of carrying around the iPad why not use the watch to take notes and keep up with their patients. For example identification, picture of patient and history mini file. By having the watch it becomes a convenient and portable technology that eliminates the use of pen and paper. This could condense the need for printed forms. Pharmaceutical, contact and reference information can be transferred from one place to the next. Nurses can communicate among themselves and if they plan on taking longer with a patient they can contact another coworker to move onto the next patient with notes on that patient. This watch could eliminate the lag time between seeing a nurse and patient, less stress, more convenient, accessibility, and multitask.
Will I? I am very interested in finding out about this Apple Watch like everyone else and I don't think I'm going to be skeptical about it at all because it will all work out in the end. I think it represents a pivotal moment in time of where we are now compared to where we were with the release date of early 2015 coming up..why not try it out?
