"If you have something with you all the time, you might as well be able to wear it," says Cameron Miner, the founder of the design lab and lead scientist on the Digital Jewelry project.
The jewelry was created by Denise Chan, one of the first to graduate Stanford's masters program in mechanical engineering from the School of Product Design, which combines engineering and art.
The thinking behind digital jewelry is that as you push more functionality into pervasive devices, they are getting harder to use: smaller screens, tiny inputs, or just trying to talk and input at the same time; all these become a challenge.
By taking the interface apart, putting it in the appropriate places, and ...
