A Simple Bracelet Can Turn Your Arm Into an Interactive Smartphone Display

Cicret turns s your arms into a smartphone. When activated with a twist of the wrist, it projects an Android interface onto the user’s arm, along with eight long-range proximity sensors and an app. The proximity sensors detect where the user’s fingers are and allow them to interact with the interface as they would any other Android device. Connectivity is provided by way of WiFi, Bluetooth and a micro USB port. The device will allow users to send and receive emails, browse the web and play games. Users can pair it with an existing smartphone, make and answer phone calls, and activate the speakerphone functionality on their smartphone.

Basically, Cicret lets you do everything you do on your phone on your forearm, palm up or palm down, depending on which way you wear it. Per Cicret’s website, you can rock it to “Read your emails, play your favorite games, answer your calls, check the weather, find your way…Do whatever you want on your arm.”

How it works isn’t, well, much of a Cicret, er, secret. The promo video explains that the snap-on device works its magic using an embedded system that includes one mini projector, one microprocessor and eight long-range proximity sensors. It’s also packed with lots of other geeky goodies like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, “vibrator,” micro USB port, battery, LED light components. Oh, and it comes in either 16-GB or 32-GB, and in 10 fun colors.
