Smartwatches and Luxury Watches Battle for Your Wrist

Holly Black: Welcome to Morningstar. I'm Holly Black. With me is Jelena Sokolova. She is an analyst at Morningstar in Amsterdam. Hello. Jelena Sokolova: Hi, thanks for having me. Black: So, you've been looking at the smartwatch and luxury-watch sectors. Can you tell us a bit about the growth of the smartwatch in recent years? Sokolova: Yeah. So, the smartwatch has started off in 2013 and since that moment the growth, of course, has been quite strong. In 2015, the smartwatch volume sold were a bit less than 20 million pieces, and now it was above 70 million in 2019. So, that's quite a spectacular growth over recent years. Black: And some people think obviously, with our reliance on technology, this smartwatch could make the luxury watch obsolete. Do you think it's a threat? Sokolova: We clearly see that as a threat on the lower-end side of the Swiss watch industry. The Swiss watch is priced below $1,000 at retail value. They have been down by around 20% since 2015

The smart screen traffic light system combines AI and Digital Signage to make entrance flow management in environments like retail manageable and safe in COVID times. During the course of this pandemic, retailers and other public venues have been hacking together communication around safety measures and guidelines leaving shoppers feeling unsafe and uninformed. The impact of Covid-19 has significantly changed how we go about our daily business, heightening awareness of germs and contagions and making us reconsider all the surfaces we encounter. As the lockdowns begin to ease and a return to normality is within grasp, core public infrastructures such as businesses, transportation and retail are recognizing the need to adopt a new and consistent approach to providing services with C19 regulations in mind.

The NBA is offering players a ‘smart’ ring to track Covid. But does it even work?

Gambar
The NBA, which hopes to restart the season July 30, says it is offering players a ring whose maker claims it can track a user's health data and might even predict if users are about to show symptoms of coronavirus infection. But there's not much information yet on how well the device, which has embedded electronics, works. The $299 Oura ring is designed to monitor sleep, pulse, movement, heart activity and temperature, according to the company's website. Some doctors are lukewarm about its potential. "There is not a lot of data on it right now. There have been some studies that I've seen — most of the studies are published by the device manufacturers," Dr. Darria Long, an emergency room physician and clinical assistant professor at the University of Tennessee, told CNN. Other doctors contacted by CNN said there was too little solid information about the device for them to comment on it. The ring is one of about a

Rape plan foiled by smart watch should garner up to 10 years: Crown

Gambar
Would-be rapist John Joseph Macindoe — whose crime was thwarted when his intended target used her smart watch to summon help — still sexually fantasizes about his victim, court heard Tuesday. Crown prosecutor Rose Greenwood said more than a year after Macindoe was caught "red-handed" in the woman's apartment when police came to her rescue, he remains infatuated with her. Greenwood argued Macindoe's crimes, including breaking into the woman's condo for the purpose of sexually assaulting her, justify a sentence of eight to 10 years. "This is the type of crime that women fear the most," Greenwood told provincial court Judge Margaret Keelaghan. But defence counsel Rebecca Snukal said a sentence of less than four years, which would allow Keelaghan to place Macindoe on probation for three years, would allow him to get community-based sex-offender treatment. Snukal said with credit of 22 months for pre-sentencing credit, Keelaghan could sentenc

Yes, after years of fans begging for the ability to track their sleep using the company's smart watch, Apple (APPL) has finally caved. The feature will be able to tell you how long you've slept each night, and how restful your sleep was. When tracking your sleep, your watches display will turn off, and if you want to check it, it will only provide you with the time. This is likely meant to save battery life throughout the night. Apple says the Apple Watch will be able to follow your sleep using its accelerometer to keep track of your movement throughout the night. When you wake up, Apple says watchOS 7 will display important information from your sleep, as well as how much battery your watch has left. Apple says it will also add a Wind Down notification to your iPhone's home screen. The idea is to let you know when you should start getting ready for bed, and provide users with
