The topic of my article is Sony is trying to make a new piece of wearable technology called the "SmartWig", now what this technology does isn't what you are probably thinking, I bet your are thinking that it helps you to become more intelligent.... WRONG, the wig is said to " help blind people navigate, check blood pressure even check brain waves" isn't that awesome? If you don't then you need to look up the definition of awesome and write in the comments. **remember you have to cite it!**
I have read this article from CNN Tech, which by the way is an AWESOME website, see what I did there? Anyways if you would like to read it yourself the URL is in this citation Petroff, Alanna. " Sony files patent for a "SmartWig"." cnn. Cable News Network, 27 Nov. 2013. Web. 1 Dec. 2013. < http://money.cnn.com/2013/11/27/technology/sony-smartwig-patent/index.html >.
This advance in technology is amazing, but it also worries me, why? because it seems to me that we are so advanced and dependable on technology that we have forgotten to think what will happen if we have a major crash in the servers? In my opinion if we keep on the same road we are on when that day comes that technology does crash the people who did nothing but type on computers and use or depend heavily on technology, may have forgotten the basic writing with pencil and paper. That may sound far fetched but it is possible, anything is possible. It also causes a lot of deaths each year think of texting while driving, people that can't put their phones down long enough to drive from point A to point B are ridiculous, because not only are they putting their own life in danger but they are putting others in danger also. But back to the wig this is a great invention but we already have devices that check blood pressure and there are dogs that help blind people navigate, so why do we need to change those they work perfectly fine.
