Wearable technology is pervading the world for its convenience and ease; take the Vivi Headset as the perfect example. A simplified version of such devices, the Vivi Headset is meant to be used in the hospital by doctors performing operations. It allows the wearer to check up on vitals as they perform tricky medical procedures.
Created by Method in collaboration with Bay Innovation, a startup launched by two anesthetists, the Vivi Headset is quite simple in both look and function. Fast Co Design writes, "The wearable is designed to clearly deliver the most crucial information at exactly the right moment, able to connect to medical equipment via Bluetooth to transmit the data." With a person's life in their hands, that all a doctor needs.
