1
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:10,110
- [Instructor] Wearable
technology usually compliments

2
00:00:10,110 --> 00:00:11,940
a mobile device.

3
00:00:11,940 --> 00:00:14,940
Examples include smart watches,

4
00:00:14,940 --> 00:00:19,590
which can connect via
Bluetooth or wifi nowadays too.

5
00:00:19,590 --> 00:00:21,270
So you can have greater connectivity,

6
00:00:21,270 --> 00:00:24,870
a larger distance, more connectivity.

7
00:00:24,870 --> 00:00:27,870
And as of the recording of this video

8
00:00:27,870 --> 00:00:30,660
some common examples are the Apple watch

9
00:00:30,660 --> 00:00:35,071
and the Samsung Gear S2 and
a lot of these are gonna be

10
00:00:35,071 --> 00:00:39,990
IP compliant for example, IP68 compliant.

11
00:00:39,990 --> 00:00:42,630
So they can be immersed in water

12
00:00:42,630 --> 00:00:47,310
and won't get damaged and
also dust protected as well.

13
00:00:47,310 --> 00:00:50,850
So smartwatches, generally these connect

14
00:00:50,850 --> 00:00:54,460
to your phone, to your smartphone

15
00:00:55,380 --> 00:00:57,960
but the newer versions are network ready,

16
00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,790
meaning that you can use the smartwatch

17
00:00:59,790 --> 00:01:04,740
on wifi networks by itself or
in conjunction with the phone

18
00:01:04,740 --> 00:01:08,670
and it increases the usability
and the range of the device.

19
00:01:08,670 --> 00:01:10,350
The next is fitness monitors.

20
00:01:10,350 --> 00:01:13,110
These might be incorporated
to a mobile device,

21
00:01:13,110 --> 00:01:15,780
a smart watch or function separately

22
00:01:15,780 --> 00:01:19,050
such as on an armband
or something like that.

23
00:01:19,050 --> 00:01:21,300
And so these usually connect

24
00:01:21,300 --> 00:01:24,120
to compatible smartphones as well.

25
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,460
And a lot of the smartphones
have their built in

26
00:01:26,460 --> 00:01:27,990
fitness monitoring apps.

27
00:01:27,990 --> 00:01:31,530
So, you know, you can monitor
how many steps you can go

28
00:01:31,530 --> 00:01:35,040
and you know, how many,
what your heart rate is

29
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,780
if it has the right sensor on the phone

30
00:01:36,780 --> 00:01:41,250
or on the fitness monitor
and that kind of thing

31
00:01:41,250 --> 00:01:44,160
and it can schedule your exercise routine

32
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:45,870
and it works very good for people doing

33
00:01:45,870 --> 00:01:48,300
within a rehabilitation
environment that kind of thing,

34
00:01:48,300 --> 00:01:49,440
physical rehab.

35
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:54,440
The device we showed the
Samsung Note has the built in

36
00:01:54,510 --> 00:01:55,920
S health program.

37
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,890
And so that's what you
use as a fitness monitor

38
00:01:58,890 --> 00:02:03,890
and the Samsung Gear S2 watch can work

39
00:02:04,020 --> 00:02:05,370
in conjunction with that.

40
00:02:05,370 --> 00:02:06,900
And same thing for the Apple watch.

41
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:09,100
They have their own
fitness monitor program.

42
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,310
And there's headsets.

43
00:02:11,310 --> 00:02:15,570
These include Bluetooth
based communication devices.

44
00:02:15,570 --> 00:02:18,540
Headphone and microphone combos,

45
00:02:18,540 --> 00:02:23,340
sunglasses with speakers,
virtual reality kits.

46
00:02:23,340 --> 00:02:27,000
And, you know, there's
devices that can take photos.

47
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,380
There's, you can really combine

48
00:02:28,380 --> 00:02:29,880
any of these things
together and you'll find

49
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,250
a lot of products out there.

50
00:02:32,250 --> 00:02:34,890
You know, glasses that
have a camera built in,

51
00:02:34,890 --> 00:02:38,010
sunglasses that have a camera
that can take pictures.

52
00:02:38,010 --> 00:02:41,910
Headsets that have a
earpiece and a microphone

53
00:02:41,910 --> 00:02:43,710
and they also have a camera built in

54
00:02:45,420 --> 00:02:49,140
and so those glasses might
function as sunglasses

55
00:02:49,140 --> 00:02:51,900
but they can also
incorporate virtual reality,

56
00:02:51,900 --> 00:02:54,360
music, communications.

57
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,370
Most will communicate via Bluetooth

58
00:02:56,370 --> 00:03:00,032
but in the future, I'm sure
you'll see wifi devices as well.

59
00:03:00,032 --> 00:03:02,610
Now back to those headsets for a second.

60
00:03:02,610 --> 00:03:04,950
Common headsets you'll see out there

61
00:03:04,950 --> 00:03:08,310
as of the recording of
this video, Samsung Gear

62
00:03:08,310 --> 00:03:10,920
and of course the upcoming Oculus Rift,

63
00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:14,070
which is gonna be amazing, we hope.

64
00:03:14,070 --> 00:03:17,250
So virtual reality kits where
you're actually playing games

65
00:03:17,250 --> 00:03:21,390
along with a game pad and
listening and seeing everything.

66
00:03:21,390 --> 00:03:23,850
And you can actually control, you know

67
00:03:23,850 --> 00:03:27,510
what applications you're dealing
with from that environment.

68
00:03:27,510 --> 00:03:28,560
Very interesting stuff,

69
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,023
the whole virtual reality technology.

70
00:03:31,890 --> 00:03:34,440
When you add wearable technology devices

71
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,710
to your mobile device there's an increased

72
00:03:37,710 --> 00:03:41,370
security precaution
involved with it as well.

73
00:03:41,370 --> 00:03:43,740
You have another layer
basically of security

74
00:03:43,740 --> 00:03:46,440
because now you have your wearable devices

75
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,180
that are communicating
with your mobile device

76
00:03:48,180 --> 00:03:49,800
which is then communicating wireless

77
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,430
with whatever, wifi or through
cellular or what have you.

78
00:03:53,430 --> 00:03:57,120
So you have to think
from a security mindset

79
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,980
and make sure that those wearable devices,

80
00:03:58,980 --> 00:04:03,660
whether it's a watch or a
headset or whatever is secure.

81
00:04:03,660 --> 00:04:05,610
Those are some of the examples
of wearable technology.

82
00:04:05,610 --> 00:04:07,860
This is more on the consumer side.

83
00:04:07,860 --> 00:04:11,730
Generally fixing these products
means having to bring them

84
00:04:11,730 --> 00:04:13,560
to an authorized repair center.

85
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,720
But the thing that you have
to watch for that might fail

86
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,600
is their connection to
Bluetooth or to wifi.

87
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,780
So remember your wifi rules
and your Bluetooth rules

88
00:04:21,780 --> 00:04:24,240
and pairing and understand how that works.

89
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,580
We talk about that in other sub lessons.

90
00:04:26,580 --> 00:04:28,110
That's really what
you're gonna wanna check

91
00:04:28,110 --> 00:04:32,460
Bluetooth and wifi, and
otherwise it's really

92
00:04:32,460 --> 00:04:34,440
gonna go out for repair.

93
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,410
So a little bit about wearable
technologies for the exam.

94
00:04:37,410 --> 00:04:39,270
Really you should just be able to identify

95
00:04:39,270 --> 00:04:41,160
which of these are which.

96
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,730
I recommend going onto your
favorite shopping portal

97
00:04:44,730 --> 00:04:47,220
and checking out some of these devices

98
00:04:47,220 --> 00:04:51,660
for the iOS side and also
the Android side, you know,

99
00:04:51,660 --> 00:04:55,500
check out the newest smart
watches and fitness monitors,

100
00:04:55,500 --> 00:04:58,590
headsets, glasses and virtual reality kits

101
00:04:58,590 --> 00:05:00,150
that are out there that can communicate

102
00:05:00,150 --> 00:05:02,250
with your smartphone.

103
00:05:02,250 --> 00:05:04,250
And that's about it for this sub lesson.
