I've seen a lot of smartwatches but I've
never seen anything like the Kairos
watch I'm Scott Stein and Mobile World
Congress in Barcelona Kairos watch takes
a mechanical watch and layers a
transparent display on top this is a
prototype that's running a demo loop but
the first time that we've seen it and
it's basically layering those SmartWatch
notifications on top of a watch and so
you're getting a hybrid you can see
underneath there are gears and then here
there are screens you know like Arnold
Schwarzenegger is calling or you're
listening to your music now interesting
kind of a gimmick but wait think about
where this could go
what if you took something like a
glowing display and layered it on top of
a reflective LCD display what are you at
something like a Pebble watch that also
had glowing notifications that layered
on top of it to save battery life pretty
cool now I don't know when this is
coming out what it costs we're just
getting a brief glimpse of this at the
show the Kairos watch is only in
prototype right now and is a big watch
but it's a pretty interesting trick
