IRIS Demo (VIDEO)

University of Washington

Caption

UW researchers have developed IRIS, a smart ring that allows users to point and click to control smart devices. The prototype Bluetooth ring contains a small camera which sends an image of the selected device to the user’s phone. The user can control the device clicking a small button or — for devices with gradient controls, such as a speaker’s volume — rotating the ring.
