Remember that Nec PC on a ring? Well, here’s another wearable computer product – the Nikon UP300x

The UP300x features a built-in motion sensor that allows for hands free operation (volume adjustment, fast forwarding/rewinding etc – lots of head nodding for that I guess), up to 8GB of flash memory, WiFi b/g, USB port, and two Sanyo eneloop rechargeable batteries. It supports WMV9, MPEG-1, MPEG-2 video files, and MP3, AAC, WMA9 audio files. Compatible with HTML 4.01, JavaScript, Flash Version 7, other media contents are downloadable from Nikon’s service.
I say it’s a wearable computer as the device can download content directly from the internet using the onboard WiFi – thus it’s possible that you could access the internet directly but I imagine that it would be difficult to do so.
From the above photo, you can see it incorporates a tiny fold-down VGA display which is the equivalent of looking at a 50in screen from 3 metres. This looks like a great piece of kit – though you won’t look like the coolest person in the world when trying to fast forward through a movie on a train. Here’s a video of the interface of the UP300x.
