Amazon Alexa is right up there with Siri and Google Assistant, but one thing the former lacks is a smartwatch. However, that could soon change, and this device by industrial designer 2-LA shows us one possible design. It would allow users to play / pause music, summon rides, send / receive messages,, and even order food while on-the-go. Aside from the blue LED lighting, its minimalist approach aims to keep things simple.
Did you know that Alexa was originally inspired by the computer voice and conversational system on board the Starship Enterprise? The name Alexa was primarily chosen because it has a hard consonant with the X and therefore could be recognized with higher precision. It’s also reminiscent of the Library of Alexandria, which is used by Amazon Alexa Internet for the same reason.
