Android powered connected device also works with iOS, and injects a bit of class into wearable tech.
Tailored device manufacturer, Creoir Ltd, has debuted the Ibis smartwatch which pairs wearable technology with the latest style trends.
Gartner recently revealed that smart watches have not been more accepted by consumers due to them lacking in an innovative design, with consumers saying they are cumbersome and bulky.
The Ibis smartwatch is powered by a lower powered optimised Android platform and a custom user interface, and is operable across iOS as well as Android.
It is wi-fi, Bluetooth and USB enabled, and features an accelerometre, e-compass plus an ambient light sensor and can be remote controlled by a smartphone which delivers notifications to the small touchscreen.
Pekka Väyrynen, CEO of Creoir Ltd, said: “We believe the demand for smartwatches will be driven by fashion and sport brands, and the Ibisexemplifies the type of product that we create for fashion brands.
“Every brand has its own design language, so with each client we start from scratch to develop a product that specifically matches the brand and their audience. With our expertise, we can provide consumer brand owners with everything they need to have a real advantage when entering the smart device space.”
