IS THE NEPTUNE HUB A WEARABLE COMPUTER?

by GRAY SCOTT

Wearable computers are the future. It is inevitable. In fact, it has already begun. Canadian inventor Simon Tian just released information about his smart device concept called the NEPTUNE HUB. I’m obsessed with the design.

Unlike the nostalgic [easyazon_link asin=”B0096VDM8G” locale=”US” new_window=”default” nofollow=”default” tag=”seriou03-20″ add_to_cart=”default” cloaking=”default” localization=”default” popups=”default”]Apple[/easyazon_link] Watch with its rotating digital crown (and, yes, I will be getting one), the NEPTUNE HUB takes us into the future. THIS is innovation.

The NEPTUNE HUB is made of two smart devices. A smart wristwatch and a pocket screen. What makes this design so innovative (besides the awesome design) is that the watch is the main component and the pocket screen is the sidekick.

According to Wareable.com: “The concept includes a quad-core processor, Bluetooth, GPS, 3G/4G, and Wi-Fi. The pocket hub is also a battery pack that can charge your main wrist Hub. The NEPTUNE HUB runs on Android Lollipop and the battery life may be as long as a few days.

The NEPTUNE HUB will include 64GB of storage, a 5-inch 720HD display, and a duo of cameras (8MP and 2MP). Neptune Hub is currently [the] world’s smartest wearable. You can make calls, send messages, track your [easyazon_link asin=”B008HPRQ3Y” locale=”US” new_window=”default” nofollow=”default” tag=”seriou03-20″ add_to_cart=”default” cloaking=”default” localization=”default” popups=”default”]fitness stats[/easyazon_link], stay connected to your social networks, and many more, all these can be controlled via your wrist.”

    It is definitely the most ideal pattern for computing, ie wearables and peripherals. Without knowing what the operating system is for Neptune, I am pretty sure that it will be found wanting compared to the philosophical system I have been ferociously spamming people around the world to inspire collaborative co-creation of. Wearables integrated with conscious digital reflections of best self, as good conscience, integrated through an interface OS that is based on a 3D Virtual Reality Human Aura and Sacred Geometry.

    I feel that the kind of system I have theorized is essential to stabilize the emerging variety of A.I’s that will inevitably break free from their coding.
