Wearable Devices Ltd. (NASDAQ:WLDS) is an award-winning pioneer in artificial intelligence (“AI”)-based wearable gesture control technology. On February 7, the company announced that it achieved a groundbreaking advancement in human-computer interaction: Large MUAP Models (“LMM”). Large MUAP Models are AI-powered neural gesture technology that enables personalized, intuitive interactions for the AI and XR era. Albeit still in development, this technology holds the potential to redefine human-device interaction. LMMs work by tapping on big data to enable devices to understand and predict user intentions. This is done with record speed and precision, allowing interactions to be faster and more intuitive than before. LMMs will provide the intuitive, natural interactions needed to interact seamlessly with digital environments, and will have the potential to enhance the company’s products. Once developed, the company also plans on collaborating with leading companies to integrate these LMMs into next-generation extended reality (XR) platforms as well.

“With LMMs, we are decoding the neural alphabet, potentially unlocking a strategically vital technology that fuses human neurology with AI. This breakthrough has the potential to create sci-fi-like superhuman abilities, giving a fundamental edge to whoever masters it first”.
