Wearables are the next big frontier for smart technology. And on March 18, 2014, Google announced its part in it — Android Wear. As the name implies, Android Wear is an Android-based initiative, using Google’s mobile operating system and a dedicated software development kit to kick-start the wearables space.
Android Wear is starting with smartwatches. Motorola and LG were first out of the gate, announcing the Moto 360 and the LG G Watch. But Google has said it’s working with other partners in the Android Wear space, including HTC, ASUS and Samsung, and chip manufacturers Broadcom, Imagination, Intel, Mediatek and Qualcomm.
So Android Wear isn’t solely a Google endeavor. Even fashion brands like Fossil are in on Android Wear, and other fashion and luxury brands are bound to follow. Check out the video below to find out what Android Wear can do for you:
