- Apple has patented a new way to buy the Apple Watch
- He has developed a system that can measure his wrists when he visits a store
- It has depth mapping and sensors that could also be used at home
Apple could be about to eliminate the conjectures of an Apple Watch with a new invention that could measure the wrists in the store to determine what size is appropriate for you.
Buying the best Apple Watch, including Apple Watch Series 10 and Apple Watch Se, implies a series of crucial options that you can't return after purchase. You must choose a color, box size and connectivity (only LTE or WIFI), but a decision often overlooks is the size of the band. With little or no reference point, it is difficult to choose the size of the right band for your Apple Watch.
Apple has presented a patent for a system that allowed customers in Apple stores to measure their wrists with without touch technology, to determine what band size is adequate for them.
Dressed in patentlyopple, the new presentation is called wrist measurement without touch. The patent refers to electronic devices “that make a wrist measurement without touch”, determining the wrist measurement or the size of the watch band using depth data captured by a sensor.
A new way of buying Apple Watch
The images of the patent and the descriptions reveal to a client standing in an retail accessory in a store that participates in a contactless measurement test. Specifically, he says that in some cases technology could be used “by a trained technician in a retail tiny and mortars.” However, the patent also points out that the test could be performed “by an individual using an electronic device as a smartphone,” at home.
As such, Apple seems to be planning a system that can eliminate some of the conjectures when buying an Apple Watch or one of the best Apple Watch bands. Many offers, including popular Sport Band and Loop options, require you to choose a purchase size, which can be complicated if you have never considered the circumference of your wrist in millimeters.
In the store or at home in one of the best iPhones, a wrist scan feature could make a Apple Watch even even easier, and eliminate the risk of ending with the incorrect size.
Of course, this is just a paper idea at this time, so there is no guarantee that Apple introduces this function on time for September and the rumored new Apple Watch Ultra 3, Apple Watch Se 3 and Apple Watch Series 11. He hopes to debut with the iPhone 17 at the end of this year. With luck, one day you can buy a Apple Watch using a futuristic scanner, instead of the Apple paper trimmed band -size tool.
