Some times real life takes a while to catch up to our imagination. We have seen that with several devices on science fiction shows such as Google Glasses being similar to the eye wear worn by Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge.
Another example was the famous 2-Way Wrist Radio worn by the Police Detective Dick Tracy in the Gould Cartoon Syndicate. Its first occurrence was in a 1946 strip in which Tracy used the two-way wrist to communicate with his Chief. Little could we have realized that it would take almost seventy years for this concept to become a reality with the phone watches. Today we have seen many companies try to launch into the market.
