問題詳情：

The world of wearable technology has been quietly growing. The year 2015 could be the year when wearable gadgets truly become a mainstream. Let’s take a look at some of them.

Shoes

An Indian company, Ducere Technologies, has created a pair of shoes called Lechal. They can direct you through the busiest city or the most remote countryside.

They work by using Bluetooth to connect with a phone app. After you’ve entered the destination you want to go to on your phone, the shoes direct you by vibrating either the left or right foot to tell you which way you should turn. The insoles of the shoes can be removed and placed into a pair of your choice. This may be the start of a new kind of high-tech footwear.

Headwear

Clipped onto your headband or onto your T-shirt, Run-n-Read tracks your head movements and then moves the text on the screen of your iPad or other reading devices in real time to always be in sync with your eyes. Though a person standing nearby can see the text jumping up and down, for you the text appears perfectly still. Your head moves, but the words do not. Run-n-Read also comes with its own gesture recognition system. Simply tap the device once to turn the page forward, or tap twice to go back a page. Get ready for an enjoyable reading experience on the move.

Bracelets

FitBit will steal the show(搶出風頭) in 2015 with its two new fitness trackers, the FitBit Surge and the FitBit Charge HR. The highlight of the Charge HR is that it monitors heart rate continuously, even during sleep, which is something most heart rate-enabled fitness bands don’t do. It can also work as a watch to tell the time. Looking more like a smart watch, the Surge has an LED touch display screen. This allows you to control your smartphone and see who is calling or messaging you. It also has eight different sensors and can record activities in different sports.
