The smartwatch integrates [artificial intelligent technology](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wear-os-6) and embodies a retro design. The personal assistant can be accessed on the portable screen, and interact with the camera and scroll wheel. Notably, the design project for the R1 started with the goal to reduce any need for additional devices to carry on the go, and the R1 smartwatch was created to enhance portability and function. It is adorned in a bright orange hue for a playful touch and retro theme. It is worn on the wrist and boasts the familiar square dial with various functions including speakers, microphones, a button, a camera, and the aforementioned control wheel.
