Recon Talks to Skyhook Wireless About Wearable Technology

Recon Talks to Skyhook Wireless About Wearable Technology | Internet of Things & Wearable Technology Insights | Scoop.it

Skyhook met with CEO Rudi Airisto at CES in Las Vegas to learn more about Recon and their ideas on Wearable Technology trends.


...What does the future of wearable tech look like, what milestone will the wearable community achieve in the next 12 months?


The big thing for us is getting the Jet out and proving the use case for the sporting community. We are looking to extend, we want to get our SDK out there so that we can really start getting applications that enhance current use cases and open new applications we haven't imagined yet. 


If you could enable any new kind of functionality on your wearable device, what would it be? 

I am looking forward to building contextual relevance around the user to further improve their experiences....

Andre Iguodala Says Wearables Can Help Win Championships

Andre Iguodala Says Wearables Can Help Win Championships | Internet of Things & Wearable Technology Insights | Scoop.it

At Disrupt yesterday, one of the most interesting talks was with Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala. Other than being the MVP of the latest NBA Championship series, Iguodala is a businessperson. He’s looking for cool companies to work with, fun projects to work on and the latest in Silicon Valley trends.

It sure helps that he’s on the Golden State Warriors, a team located near all of this noisy entrepreneurship. We see a lot of “celebrities” getting involved in tech investing, but Iguodala is different in that he truly sees the big picture when it comes to companies like Tristan Walker’s Bevel, or the company he worked with through its acquisition, Twice.

One of the most interesting bits of knowledge that he dropped was on wearables. While we’re all trying to think about what the killer app will be for consumers, Iguodala says that athletes are already reaping benefits from the devices....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

It makes a lot of sense for wearables to be used in professional sports from training, monitoring and data gathering to performance, goal setting and more. Interesting read.
