Wearable Devices, the Israel-based company specialising in AI -powered touchless sensing wearables, has
announced a major update to its Mudra Link product, transforming it into a personalised neural wristband controller worn
on the wrist.The new Mudra Link gesture mapper feature
allows users to assign personalised input commands to specific
gestures, enabling intuitive, touchless control across multiple
compatible devices and operating systems. By customising
their interaction experience, users can streamline workflows,
enhance accessibility and enjoy more natural, hands-free operation.The Mudra Link gesture mapper offers both computer
mouse functionality and directional pad functionality. Users
can configure a tap gesture to be a left or right mouse button click, and gestures like pinch and slide or double-tap to
any keyboard key. This flexibility allows users to replace or
augment traditional input methods, enabling more efficient,
accessible and personalised control across a wide range of
devices and applications.“The Mudra Link is heralding an
era of wearable brain-computer interfaces, as an established
product in the neural wristband product category for user
input and interaction,” said Asher Dahan, Wearable Devices
CEO. “With the gesture mapper, we set out to make neural
input as intuitive and accessible as possible. This feature not
only delivers immediate value through customisable gestures
but also invites a growing community to explore new ways of
interacting with technology.”In connection, Wearable Devices
has secured a patent titled ‘Gesture and Voice-Controlled Interface Device’ with the United States Patent and Trademark
Office has allowed.This represents a significant advancement
in the company’s strategic intellectual property (IP) portfolio,
strengthening global protection for its core innovations in
wearable bio-potential sensors. The company’s IP strategy
includes patent families designed to protect a wide spectrum
of future applications, ensuring agility in response to emerging
global market needs.“Voice control is an essential interface for
smart environments, but it often lacks the precision, personalisation and the security users need,” said Guy Wagner,
Wearable Devices president and CSO. “By integrating voice
and gesture-based interaction along with neural and voicebased user authentication, we’re bridging that gap, enabling
users not only initiate actions by voice but also to fine-tune and
personalise device behaviour through intuitive gestures. This
combination introduces a new dimension of seamless, secure
and intelligent human-computer interaction.”the first product
