The 'Mudra Band' is an aftermarket solution for Apple Watch users that will provide them with an alternative way to control the device that doesn't require any physical interaction with the wearable. The band works by being attached onto the smartwatch's main body and will go to work with a series of sensors within to provide users with the ability to perform actions using only hand gestures. This includes managing calls, notifications and music by simply creating specific shapes and/or movements with their hands and fingers to manipulate the on-screen functions.
The 'Mudra Band' is ideal for users of all kinds, but could show distinct promise for those who require more support when it comes to accessibility to help them use the device with more comfort.
