Wearable Devices’ Mudra Band to Control the Apple Watch with Innovative AI Neural Gesture Technology

Wearable Devices to expand Mudra Band capabilities to include same-hand touchless watch operation and streamlined task management, complementing its existing solutions for iPhone, iPad, and other Apple products

YOKNEAM ILLIT, ISRAEL, Aug. 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wearable Devices Ltd. (the “Company” or “Wearable Devices”) (Nasdaq: WLDS, WLDSW), a technology growth company specializing in artificial intelligence (“AI")-powered touchless sensing wearables, announces the latest upgrade to the Mudra Band — enhanced gesture control functionality for the Apple Watch.

This new feature enhances convenience by enabling quick, hands-free control for common tasks, and significantly improves accessibility for older Apple Watch models which do not support some of the Apple Watch double tap gesture.

The Mudra Band's watch gesture control features will significantly enhance the value and functionality of the Apple Watch, particularly in terms of accessibility and convenience. It allows users to operate the watch using simple gestures of the same hand, even when their fingers hold something or temporarily can't touch the screen. By enabling users to control their watch without touching the screen, the Mudra Band simplifies interaction and reduces physical effort, empowering on-the-go and multi-tasking watch operation without the need to pause, stare at the screen, and use the other hand to operate it.

Users can navigate the interface using familiar gestures. Simply pinching the index with the thumb and quickly flicking the wrist is used for navigation, and tapping or double-tapping is used to select an element or go back. The comfortable gestures are possible due to the Mudra Band’s fingertip pressure measurement, which allows for more relaxed and subtle finger movements, rather than using abrupt jab gestures.

This advanced gesture control provided by Mudra Band allows users to pause music, stop timers, and answer calls without touching the screen. The Mudra Band significantly improves the usability of the Apple Watch for a broader audience, ensuring accessibility and convenience for all users.

“One of our initial goals with the Mudra Band has been to provide our users with a same-hand touchless watch operation, and we are pleased to cater to multiple requests by our customers,” says Asher Dahan, CEO of Wearable Devices. “This is a step forward in AI-based wearable technology, pushing the boundaries of what wearable technology can offer. The Mudra Band’s new watch gesture control functionality is a testament to our commitment to innovation and user empowerment.”

The new Apple Watch gesture control functionality for the Mudra Band will be available in the coming Mudra Band app update.
