‘Natural and human’ technology startup Humane’s first product will apparently be an AI-powered wearable computer with no screen.
Remember the com-badges on Star Trek? Just tap your badge and talk to get any information available to your crewmembers or ship’s computer. It’s a wonderful fantasy from the 24th century, and maybe it’ll be reality if we keep making progress at this rate, because Humane just demoed a device that only seems a few steps away from that.
If you read that and thought « who? » you’re not alone. Humane is a company founded by ex-Apple employees that seeks to « build technology that feels familiar, natural, and human. » Humane promised last year to show its first products in « Spring 2023 » (while criticizing smart glasses for being ‘invasive’).
Well, the company has apparently made good on that promise at TED by showing off a new independent computing device prototype.
