Miscellaneous / / April 02, 2023
American company Apple received patent for a strap with a built-in module NFC for your smart watch. They will provide users with a number of new features.
For example, thanks to the NFC chip in the strap, the watch will be able to dynamically change the user interface depending on which bracelet is connected. It will be a partial color adjustment or a complete change of the dial.
The new straps are also able to interact with different apps on the watch. And it will be possible to embed additional sensors in them: temperature sensors, gestures, and so on.
In addition, with the help of this chip, Apple Watch will determine which particular strap is connected to it: branded or third-party. In the second case, some functions may become unavailable or not work fully.
