Everyone knows the hand signs to tell someone to call or make a call. We even see this used in sci-fi movies to make it look like they are actually making a call with no handset or device in hand. But now it seems we may see a lot of people flashing the same hand signals with two glowing rings on their thumb and the other on the pinky finger and are actually talking to someone.

The Color Rings are the latest Bluetooth headset concept which anyone would mistake for a new trend of fashion being worn today. Presumably, the ring worn on the pinky is the one that has the mic and the other on the thumb is the earphone. A built-in distance sensor notifies you when you are about to make or receive calls whenever you place your hand to your head. Quite neat and something that negates the usual looking techie carrying out all those peripherals that make you look like a geek from outer space!

Only in the military can you get to see new innovations as far as innovations are concerned. And that seems to be the case as iKey has released a rugged wearable keyboard with pointing device that military personnel can simply latch on to their arm.

Apparently this was done for extreme emergencies to which the military is always experiencing. The AK-39 has all the features you can see from a usual setup although we have seen this kind of a device in movies such as “Predator” and other known sci-fi movies. This device also comes with adjustable green LED backlighting and is night vision compatible.

Hence, while those were all getups and paraphernalia, this is the real thing. The AK-39 wearable keyboard also comes with a USB cable that is available in both left- and right-arm configurations. Its lightweight plastic case easily adheres onto a Velcro arm strap that is sized to fit over bulky combat clothing, and has a curved back for arm comfort. The strap is available in two styles: one that affixes directly over the forearm, and one that includes a thumb loop for added stability.
