Back to the Future is Now

We are now officially going Back to the Future of 2015. Recently the +Hendo Hover hoverboard was announced, flying cars by +Terrafugia Inc are now a reality, and Marty's self lacing shoes are on their way! Though Steven Spielberg got so many things accurate in this epic and all time favorite motion picture, one thing missing is the smartjewelry. This was one of my recent posts on the awesome new app Super.me.


While some of us, myself in particular, might have caught a lot of grief for walking about with new wearable technology, this is the year that wearables and IoT are going mainstream. Before we know it, every object in sight will be considered "smart" due to its connection with many other things and to the intelligence of the internet.

Here are five of my favorite new wearables in the smartjewelry category:

Ringly by +Christina Mercando - Divebar Edition $195

"Ringly connects to your phone and sends you customized notifications through vibration and light."



Moodmetric by +Niina Venho $179

"The smallest wearable technology in the world for measuring emotions. The Moodmetric ring measures the autonomous nervous system signals that can be used to understand emotional reactions and improve quality of life."



Altrius by +Kovert Designs +Kate Unsworth Cleopatra Edition $480

"Subtle vibrations alert you for predefined text, email, call or whatsapp notifications from certain people or with specific keywords, so that you can cut out the noise and focus on the stuff that really matters."



Cuff starting at $49

"Stylish wearable technology featuring elegant jewelry and accessories with the interchangeable CuffLinc, which alerts your network when you need help." Cuff also has activity tracking and notifications.



Elemoon by Jing Zhou $199

"Elemoon is the world's first smart accessory that lets you change its light designs to match every outfit or occasion. elemoon can also alert you to important calls, find your phone if you lose it and much more!"
