- The new user experience enables interaction with AI agents through touchless gestures, offering a seamless and innovative way to engage with AI technology -
YOKNEAM ILLIT, ISRAEL, July 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wearable Devices Ltd. (the “Company” or “Wearable Devices”) (Nasdaq: WLDS, WLDSW), a technology growth company specializing in artificial intelligence (“AI")-powered touchless sensing wearables, today announced a new user experience, feature and functionality for its Mudra Band for Apple Watch. This innovation marks a significant leap forward in how users interact with AI technology, by integrating it into daily life without the need for supplementary devices.
This development allows users to seamlessly interact with ChatGPT, OpenAI’s advanced language model, directly from their Apple Watch, using the Mudra Band, the Company’s innovative AI-powered neural input interface. With this new feature, the Mudra Band takes wearable technology to the next level by integrating gesture-based voice-activated AI assistants into the Apple Watch experience.
With a simple, predefined gesture, users can effortlessly activate the new watch face, ensuring instant and convenient access to AI assistance without touching the screen. They can then speak their queries directly to their Apple Watch, leveraging the power of ChatGPT to receive instant, intelligent responses. Whether it's checking the weather, finding information, or getting quick answers to questions, the integration brings the capabilities of ChatGPT to the user’s wrist. The responses from ChatGPT are displayed directly on the Apple Watch face, providing an easy and efficient way to access information and perform tasks on the go.
The new ChatGPT gesture feature is designed to provide users with an enhanced, hands-free experience, making it easier than ever to stay connected and informed while on the move. The Mudra Band's neural interface technology continues to push the boundaries of what's possible in the realm of wearable devices.
