Philips just announced a new wearable device that can be used to send your doctor critical health information, meaning that doctors can monitor patients in their homes . Although this will primarily be used for patients with COPD, it's interesting to see the strides we're making in outpatient care! For anyone who is interested in learning about the technology, here's a link.
What do you all think about medical/healthcare applications of wearable devices? What other innovations in that area do you foresee or want to see? I personally find these applications more useful than a pair of glasses with WiFi and a camera...unless...it can 3-D image me a cup (recyclable of course), fill it with coffee, and wipe away my foamy milk mustache after each sip all with voice command!
