Style Meets Technology in the World of Wearables

People often talk about thinking “outside the box” but one of the things most exciting in modern technology is being able to design “off the glass” — meaning a piece of technology that isn't bound to a glass screen with a perimeter of plastic. Thanks to Moore's Law and cheap computing power, designers can embed technology into items worn on the wrist to monitor your health, or shoes that count your steps, or rings that can store data. Or, if you're me, 3D printed armor with microprocessor controlled servos to open your visor. Welcome to the world of wearable computing.
