Wove Band Flexible Display Wearable First Look!

2015-10-02
on Monday we brought you details on the announcement of a SmartWatch that really has is excited the wolf manned by poly era I brought you a lot of information as to how this particular device is put together but today I can finally show you the actual device it stretch of agar from Android Authority what's going on everybody and this is your first look at the wolf band by poly era and here it is the wolf banned by poly era now you can go ahead and see all of the action that this particular watch is showing us in this video but I do have to reiterate from Monday's video that this is such a pre-production unit that this is very pre-alpha even and right now the stage is currently at 0.1 phase that means that right now poly era is just looking for people to be able to create some artists to create compositions on here and developers to create the experiences that we eventually make it onto the wrists of those who buy the wolf band now there's also no info on availability or pricing at the moment because we are still very much a long ways from this becoming a consumer product but it will get there sometime in 2016 now getting into the actual specs themselves this is called the wolf OS that you're seeing here and right now it's just a demo unit so it's just going to be cycling across a number of different compositions everything from landscape wants to portrait orientation wants to even pictures that is basically making this bangle or band rather a kind of customizable and very fashionable type of device that well voeis is based on android 5.1 though so you're looking at an actual android iteration on the back end here now the display resolution is actually 10 40 by 200 that's of course obviously 200 wide and 10 40 on the long way so you'll be wrapping this whole display around your wrist and it is a paper display that is going to be of a grayscale color so if you've ever had any ink or ePaper devices in the past you kind of note to expect here but it is a full touchscreen display which will allow you to navigate across various portions of the loved OS and the customizable compositions will be made available with a companion tab that will be compatible with Android and iOS so you will be able to customize the experience to your liking but it is still a touchscreen display so you can manipulate the operating system now like I said before this particular watch is not one that I can show on a wrist because that is an experience that Polly era is hoping to keep as personal as possible for each and every user that does get the wolf band now as far as development goes the SDKs will be made available for those who are versed in Java html5 css3 javascript for android and there will also be a graphics tool that will allow people to help create very unique types of compositions on here and finally the processor underneath is a one gigahertz cortex a7 now as you might be able to see in a couple of the compositions that are cycling on the wolfman right now what's great about having a display of this size is that you can kind of prioritize the information on your wrist for example if you happen to have a text message come in you can get a little ticker on the top of your wrist where everyone will most likely be able to see it and it will tell you that you did just get a text message but then flip your wrist down and on the bottom of your wrist where that display is you'll be able to see the actual text in landscape not only does this provide a certain sense of privacy but because you're able to show the information in landscape you could feasibly see an entire block of text rather than have to scroll through it the way that current smart watches with their touch screens require you to now though the display rests on a number of slats that eventually snake together to create the round band at the top there you're going to notice that there is a small solid area now this is mostly for the bits and pieces that Polly era is unable to make into their digital fabric technology and you probably guessed it it's the battery but it is also where Storage is going to be put and that's four gigabytes of storage with half a gigabyte of RAM and the battery which it mostly comprises of is a 230 million power unit now considering that this is an ePaper display it should go for quite a while and they're even hoping that the wolfman will be able to be used in landscape mode sitting on a desk eva specially when it is fully rolled out as you can put a lot of information on there that becomes just a fixture on your actual desk and so there you have it for your first real look at the wove band once again wove calm is the place to go if you are a developer an artist or anyone that just really wants to create the compositions that will eventually make it onto the wove OS and you can head over to wove comm where they have a great presentation of exactly what this particular device is and you can stay tuned to
