A new wearable device called “Iris”, launched by the Indian-origin founder Advait Paliwal can help you remember forgotten details using artificial intelligence (AI).

Paliwal launched Iris in a post on X, claiming that it will give the user “infinite memory” of their life. He also mentioned that the device’s “focus” mode will detect when you get distracted and proactively remind you to get back on track.

“I built Iris, a wearable that gives you infinite memory of your life. It takes a picture every minute, captions and organises them into a timeline, and uses AI to help you remember forgotten details,” Paliwal wrote.

“Iris also has a focus mode. It notices when you get distracted and proactively tells you to get back on track,” he added.

The founder explained that this device “takes pictures of every minute” which are then stored on the device or uploaded to the cloud. The idea behind the device is to capture the small moments of life and document the little moments we often overlook, revealing unnoticed patterns.

Paliwal, in his blogpost, stated that the design of the device is inspired by the evil eye symbol. He mentioned that he spent the summer working on the device at Augmentation Lab in Cambridge, which is a two-month hacker accelerator residency program for AI and hardware talent.

The Indian-origin founder emphasised the safety and health benefits of Iris, suggesting doctors can utilise the device to understand a patient’s daily habits.

“In workplaces, it could be used to ensure people are following safety protocols. For elderly care, it could help caregivers monitor patients without being intrusive,” he said.
