Abstract

A smart necklace includes a first pod having a proximate connector and a component electrically coupled to the proximate connector that can receive input data or output data. The necklace also includes a second pod having a proximate connector and a component electrically coupled to the proximate connector that can receive input data or output data. The necklace also includes a curved main unit having a first connector removably, pivotably and electrically coupled to the proximate connector of the first pod and a second connector configured to be removably, pivotably and electrically coupled to the proximate connector of the second pod. The main unit also includes a mobile processor for receiving the input data from at least one of the first pod or the second pod, determining output data based on the input data, and outputting the output data via the first pod or the second pod.
