From the mind of Hiromi Kiriki comes a concept design for adorning the wrist with the latest technological gadget. The Nextep Computer Concept was developed to be constructed out of a [flexible OLED touchscreen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumo-x700) and to be [worn as a bracelet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wristband-prototype).

The Nextep Computer Concept features a holographic projector, pull-out extra keyboard panels and social networking compatibility. From the looks of this bad boy, it seems like [Sony](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sony-smart-switch-ecosystem) should be listening to what Hiromi Kiriki has to say about their new products. Just sayin'.
