What should I do with old wearable technology?

I have some wearable devices that were used to notify me discreetly by way of Bluetooth of an event - new email, spouse is calling, someone added me on FB, etc. I really loved these things when the service was active, and would love to reuse them somehow beyond just wearing them as boring, non-interactive jewellery.

{DD} Know Labs ($KNWN) produces wearable technology that provides the user with real-time information on their blood glucose levels

(OTCQB: KNWN)

Know Labs produces wearable technology that provides the user with real-time information on their blood glucose levels. They use spectroscopy to direct electromagnetic energy through a substance or material to capture a unique molecular signature. In other words, they use radio waves to identify and measure what is going on inside your body. They call this tech Bio-RFID (Body - Radio Frequency Identification.

Know Labs is developing a family of products using this technology. There are hundreds of uses for Bio-RFID but blood glucose monitoring is Know Labs main focus, as there are 2 billion people worldwide suffering from diabetes and pre-diabetes that could use Know Labs device to manage their conditions. Know Labs is still working on bringing this technology to the market by obtaining US FDA approval. Right now they are in the process of miniaturization and human testing.

Their current products are the UBand and KnowU. The KnowU was recently announced and is a convenient, non-wearable, on-the-go alternative to fingersticks, which are used to check blood glucose levels multiple times a day. UBand is a medical-grade wearable device that continuously monitors glucose levels. These devices are pain free and much more affordable than the current products as there are no consumables attached to the initial cost. Know Labs estimates customers' savings to be about 3-5x when compared to current options.

Here is the reasoning behind the KnowU: β€œWe know that not all people with diabetes are looking for a wearable continuous glucose monitoring device to manage their diabetes. Some simply want to replace the painful, inconvenient and expensive fingersticks they currently rely on,” said Phil Bosua, Know Labs CEO and Bio-RFID inventor.

In a recent study conducted by the company, Bio-RFID was compared to other FDA-cleared glucose monitoring devices that are currently available in the market. Human subjects placed their arms on a Bio-RFID sensor and their blood glucose levels were measured every five minutes over a period of two hours. Concurrent readings were taken with an Accu-Chek fingerstick device and with two continuous FDA approved glucose monitoring devices, Abbott FreeStyle Libre and the Dexcom G6. The mean absolute relative difference of the Bio-RFID scores were between 5.3% and 6.7%. Anything under 10% is considered good analytical performance.

They recently received three crucial patents that expand Know Labs’ intellectual property portfol

Everyone thinks its possible for future technology to make wearable robots but what about edible robots? As in robots made of food products that can move.

Think of them like the chocolate frogs from the Harry Potter movies and books.

The robots can be given the shape of animals, anthromorphic food etc and can move, make sounds and possibly even interacting with humans in a rudimentary manner.

The robots could also 'feed' on other food products that can be used to change their flavors, nutrition content, make the robots 'fatter' etc for the diet specifications of the consumer.

Of course there is no sapient AI involved, considering the limitations of the hardware I don't think there would be any software involved making these robots only automata made of food.

This would make such robots interactive food.

Further down the line could nanotechnology enable 'robotic' apples, potatoes and other fruits and vegetables that can talk and interact to people without being sapient?

Of course with nanotechnology interaction becomes possible as AI or humans can control it externally like a puppet.

What do you think of the idea?
