Apple has filed a new patent for smartwatch designs under the name ‘iTime’, fuelling more speculation that the electronics giant is making a leap into wearable technology.
One version shows a receptacle band that could accept an external “iTime” module as shown above not unlike the iPod Nano watch experiment from 2010.
Apple’s band has built-in electronics like Bluetooth transceivers, along with accelerometers and GPS modules.
According to the document, that would enable smartphone or computer notifications that you could see, hear or feel.
Users can dismiss notifications or perform other actions by shaking your wrist once or several times, according to another design in the patent.
