At the end of the day, do you wonder where all the time went? You’re not alone. Most of us have only a vague idea of how much time we […]This is an interesting route as everyone wishes they could have more times or wished they planned there time wisely on certain tasks. Most of us have only a vague idea of how much time we spend on the professional and personal tasks we tackle in a 24 hour period.
Silicon Valley's Next Big Hack? Consciousness Itself
Silicon Valley’s Next Big Hack? Consciousness Itself
By Noah J. Nelson (@noahjnelson)
Is there something that lies beyond the quantified self movement? This MIT trained, former NASA robotics engineer says yes.
Admit it: you’ve used at least one of those self-improvement apps thinking that it would make you a better person. Heck, you might be using one right now: keeping track of steps, calories, sleep, even the number of times you checked your…

The problem is that such thinking imposes a viewpoint about what’s “right” or what’s “best” upon myriad individual lives. A state that emphasizes processes over outcomes is a pluralist state, whose citizens have the freedom to define and pursue happiness in their own particular fashion. A quantified state optimizes outcomes by narrowing possibilities—and establishing “efficiency and uplift for all” as the new national mandate. You don’t need a sophisticated sensor network to register that as a step backward.

Kris Duggan is building a social smartwatch app that lets your boss track your quantified self. That may sound like a Silicon Valley send-up. But it’s the real thing. Today, Duggan and his 18-month-old startup, BetterWorks, announced that this wearable app would arrive in the summer, bringing...
With the explosion of hardware devices to support the quantified self, mobility has moved beyond its communication roots. Each new touch point represents both an opportunity and a risk. For all of their potential added value, the plethora of available devices often translates to inconsistent design languages and interfaces.
The quantified self is something I keep tabs on, namely what our connected devices are doing to create behavior change in people and organizations. There has been a great deal of suspicion around whether the gentle buzzes, beeps, vibrations, and lights on our wrists are doing anything...

Several large technology companies including Apple, Google, and Samsung are entering the expanding market of population health with the introduction of wearable devices. This technology, worn in clothing or accessories, is part of a larger movement often referred to as the “quantified self.

The Quantified Self: What sort of data are you tracking? Dave Schumaker, engadget.com

Thync Because Thync is a wearable—perhaps the first wearable technology that actively does something to you rather than track what you’re doing to yourself. It sticks to your temple, a shaped, rounded triangle of plastic with a replaceable strip of flat printed-circuitry plastic that navigates the side of your head down to the base of your skull. The forehead and the neck piece generate impulses, controlled by the program you’ve loaded via a companion smartphone app, that actively jolt the neurons in those two sensitive areas; these programs generate mood shifts that Thync calls “Vibes.” At present, there are two sets of Vibes available: One designed to produce relaxation, and another designed to produce alertness.

Interactive Bionic Man, featuring 14 novel biotechnologies - The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering has launched the “NIBIB Bionic Man,” an interactive Web tool that showcases cutting-edge research in biotechnology. The bionic man features 14 technologies currently being developed by NIBIB-supported researchers. Examples include a powered prosthetic leg that helps users achieve a more natural gait, a wireless brain-computer interface that lets people who are paralyzed control computer devices or robotic limbs using only their thoughts, and a micro-patch that delivers vaccines painlessly and doesn’t need refrigeration.

Smartwatches will become indispensable as they find a central place in a larger tech ecosystem of apps and hardware. Wearables won't just appeal to fitness nuts and quantified-self geeks.
