A tech company, CSR, has launched a range of jewellery at CES that supports iOS and Android smartphone notifications. The pendant-style connected necklaces can change colour depending on the type of notifications received, or can be configured via an app to match mood or clothing for example.
The company claims that the necklace supports the Apple Notification Center Service a new feature released in iOS 7 which allows peripheral devices to access all notifications generated on an iOS device over a Bluetooth connection.
CSR are also demonstrating Android applications that enable the user to set the colour and patterns of the jewellery.
“Many of the wearable technology devices hitting the shelves today offer great features but don’t take into consideration that consumers want beautiful, cutting-edge devices that complement their personal style,” says Paul Williamson, Director of Low Power Wireless at CSR.
“If wearable technology is to reach it's potential, it needs to appeal to more than just technology lovers. Devices like these connected pendants will help wearable tech go mass market.”
