Circet Bracelet:The future is now

                                  

Circet wristband turns your arm into wristband:

• Concept Cicret bracelet is designed to replace a smartphone or tablet
• Using a projector, it could project a screen onto the forearm
• An array of eight sensors will allow a wearer to manipulate the 'screen'
• Bracelet could be used to watch films, write emails and make phone calls

From Apple’s forthcoming smartwatch to the Fitbit, there is fierce competition to get consumers hooked on wearable devices.

And soon there will be a bracelet that turns your skin into a touchscreen using a tiny built-in projector.

Wearers of the of the Cicret bracelet will be able to check an email or watch a film that’s projected onto their forearm, and control the picture by using their skin like a touchscreen.

Many would be imagining how it works and what softwares or technologies are used to make such an awesome device

A tiny projector in the bracelet will cast an image onto the skin then eight long-range proximity sensors will detect every swipe, tap and pinch.

The bracelet will also contain a USB port and accelerometer as well as supporting Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

While it will be made so it can sync with an iPhone, it's designed to be a stand-alone device

Bracelet doesn't contain any sim card so it should be used alongside smartphones one of the disadvantage of this bracelet but the developers of this bracelet are planning to put a 3G cards to allow calls

Their will be an app to connect your smartphone with the bracelet

‘The applications for the bracelet are vast - it will be able to do anything a phone or tablet can do but without the need for a hard screen.

‘Not only is it more portable but it's also more ecological too because it is the screen part of tablets and phones that is hard to dispose of.

‘The amazing thing is that we haven't invented anything new - the developer of this bracelet just combined two existing technologies to create something really special.

‘I think the bracelet will revolutionise the technology world.

It will use a tiny 'pico projector' and eight miniature proximity sensors to replicate an image of your device screen on to your arm. 

Low energy Bluetooth will communicate with your mobile device. A Wi-Fi component will connect you to the network. It will have a vibrate function and a micro USB charging port. 

Touching your arm with your finger will interrupt one of the sensors and return the instruction back to the processor — the Cicret bracelet. 

Flicking your wrist will initiate the display on your arm. The Cicret bracelet will be water resistant and durable. Flick, swipe, pinch and zoom functionality will be supported along with tap to text. You will even be able to answer the phone with a flick of your wrist.

Now here comes the funny part:

The Cicret App and Bracelet was lauded by the people as the next stage of smartphone connectivity, and videos and articles about it were widely shared on social media sites. But if your first impression was the device looked like something out of science fiction, you weren't entirely wrong. A number of skeptical users had some pointed questions about the Cicret claims, and among the more logical queries (such as how the device might work for people with dark skin or abundant arm hair) was a far more central mystery: does the Cicret bracelet actually exist? 

Many developers were quick to notice the device as shown appeared to have been cobbled together from recognizable existing products. Some observed extant advances don't allow for such capabilities to be contained within a device as small as the one depicted, and others noted the projection quality seemed remarkably high. 

As it turned out, the Cicret bracelet did not actually exist, and no working prototype of it had yet produced. In a 5 December 2014 report from Washington television station WTOP, Cicret co-creator Guillaume Pommier reluctantly confirmed the impressive video produced was a mockup not representative of any functional prototype device
