YOKNEAM ILLIT, ISRAEL, Feb. 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wearable Devices Ltd. (the “Company” or “Wearable Devices”) (Nasdaq: WLDS, WLDSW), a technology growth company specializing in artificial intelligence (AI)-powered touchless sensing wearables, today announced its participation at MWC Barcelona 2024, the world’s most influential exhibition for the connectivity and security ecosystem, where they will demonstrate neural gesture input technology targeting the B2B and B2C markets.

The Company will also showcase its flagship B2C product, the Mudra Band for Apple Watch, an award-winning aftermarket band that enables touchless control of Apple ecosystem products and is currently available for purchase.

Mr. Offir Remez, Executive Vice President of Business Development of Wearable Devices, stated, “MWC is a premier conference for the connectivity and security ecosystem, and we’re excited to be showcasing our B2B and B2C technology on this stage. Partnerships in particular remain a key part of our business and we anticipate them to be a major driver of revenue as we continue to scale. Our Mudra Development Kit provides OEMs with easy and intuitive access to gesture control technology, and we anticipate strong interest in this, and our Mudra Band for Apple Watch, at MWC 2024.”

Mr. Asher Dahan, Chief Executive Officer of Wearable Devices, added, “Our Mudra Developer Kit is a key part of our B2B growth strategy as it allows OEMs to integrate our spatial gesture control technology into their business operations and customize the product to meet their specific demands. We will also be showcasing our flagship B2C product, the Mudra band for Apple Watch, the world’s first neural input wristband to control Apple ecosystem products and additional Bluetooth-enabled devices with gestures from the wrist, thus providing a true boundless user experience.”
