The iRing Could Soon Be A Thing

First the iWatch and now the iRing. If reports are to be believed, there could soon be a covetable Apple jewellery collection as the brand has been granted a patent for a new device. The iRing is said to be a multi-tasking invention which will take photos, text, tell the time and use a number of apps. A microphone will allow you dictate messages while a small camera enables photos. The iRing comes after the iWatch The patent says: "The use of touch-sensitive surfaces as input devices for computers and other devices has increased significantly in recent years. ‘A user controls an external electronic device with a finger ring-mounted touchscreen that includes a computer processor, wireless transceiver, and rechargeable power source. ‘The ring is worn on a first finger and receives an input from a second finger". Speaking to The Daily Mail about the device, entrepreneur and internet consultant Matt Webb said: "The ring might carry extra features, such as all your passwords. That would make it like a 21st Century signet ring".
