WASHINGTON: As Apple made it’s debut in the Smartwatch category Search engine giant gaining momentum to join the new market with its upcoming device Google Watch.
We have seen one from Samsung and Sony entering their new smartwatches in the market. Now Google is eyeing to develop one of its own.
As we have reported earlier that Google smartwatch have entered mass production and now aimed o make an early impact next year.
We’ve heard that watches from Microsoft and LG may also be forthcoming, while an Apple iWatch is also widely predicted.
However Google’s Android makes its way in the ware able gadgets and now copany’s operating system eyeing to launch on company’s own device.
The watch displayed in the illustration has two touchpads on either side of the display face. The patent says that you’ll be able to use these to “pinch, stretch and scroll on a platform with limited space available for user input.” This could mean it will interact with Google Glass.
It’s possible that the watch will also rely on a Google Now-style use of information cards, and after word that the watch will integrate the personal assistant features of Google Now, it seems even more likely.
One thing that the Google smartwatch is rumored to be going big on is Google now, which some sources reckon will lie at the heart of the watch.
If so, this means we could be talking to our Google watch – very Google Glass style, then – to check emails or see what the weather forecast holds. We expect this also means you’ll need a phone that supports Google Now in order to take advantage of the watch’s core features.
A recent report claims that Google is hard at work to solve the ongoing problem of the smartwatch battery. Apparently it’s looking at methods to reduce the power consumption so we won’t be taking it off our wrists to charge quite as often.
Anonymous tipsters contacted Android Authority and claimed the watch already exists in a physical form and has been seen in its Berlin, Manchester and Google’s Mountain View offices.
Motorola already has an exercise watch available, the Motoactiv. Could this give us any hints to the possible design of the new Google Watch or should we expect something radically different?
The same sources also state that the watch is “not a standalone device yet”, claiming that it needs to be tethered to a smartphone to function properly. This part isn’t so surprising given that Google Glass works much the same way.
Android Police’s Artem Russakovskii wrote on Google+ that the watch currently existed under the name of Google Gem. While the final name could well be something different, we have to say we’re warming to Gem.
Rumors also continue to abound that Google will launch its own retail stores, although it will take some time to rival the all-conquering Apple Stores, of course.
The stores would enable consumers to get face-on with Google Glass as well as Android phones and, potentially, the Google watch.
With Google’s next event is approaching no we can expect that company will takes the wraps off from the device. Still nothing is official from Google, we will keep you update.
