the grand prize winner won $500,000 for their project. >> this was a wearable contest. >> a wearable contest. >> they had to usain intel product. >> yes. >> okay. what was the winner? what was the actual -- >> a flying drone. you wear it on your wrist and then when you want to take a picture it flies off your wrist and takes a picture and comes back to you bike a boomerang. it's a really cool product. all of the products everyone came up with were amazing. we were shocked with what they came up with. >> is that something intel is going to put on the market or get on the market somehow? >> we continue to support the make it wearable challenge finalists in their projects. it has an intel edison processor inside. so at the keynote yesterday our c.e.o. had them on stage. >> andrea raines, this year's contest, what do you have this year? >> the finalists from the past year, we announced we'll do a competition again this coming year. >> andrea raines, you have some inventor finalists here. who's here? >> so we have finalists in the make it wearable challenge that we announced last year at

yet if a broader than wearables.just a watch is not going to the enterprise in terms of science and other enterprise applications i think it is not necessarily this in terms of what it is doing for a revenue perspective. it is does it open enter opportunity years down the road. betty: i know it will work with the iphone but could it cannibalize the sales? >> not really because you need your actual phone to work with the watch so i think that is something they already thought ahead in terms of cannibalization effect. when you look at some of the other technology there could be some capitalization but at this point for apple it would be more incremental for the industry in terms of wearable technology and that's why it will really the key for the industry if it is successful and that is what a lot of investors are looking at. betty: so successful you would be that has a long battery life or apps to be loaded on it? >> first it is showing that the use case is as well as the actual technology, that consumers will line up

we are showing a lot of wearable devices that came out in 2014. a lot that were announced in partnership with ces last year. we are showcasing a lot of products that came from the make it wearable challenge. so the challenge in october and we announced three winners and the grand prize winner won $500,000 for the project. >> host: this was a wearable contest? and they had to use an intel product. >> yes. >> host: what was the winner? >> guest: a flying grown. you wear it on your wrirs wrist and it flies off, takes a picture of you and comes back to you like a boom a rang. it was a cool product. all of them were shocked. >> host: is that something intel is going to put on the market? >> guest: we continue to support them and yes, we will showcase it at the key note yesterday. our ceo had them and we are involved in the final. >> host: this year's contest, what do you have this year? >> guest: on display, is the finalist from the past year and we announced we would do the competition again this year. >> host: you have inventor finalist here. who is

the thing is walking on its own. >> we like to think of it as a wearable robot. it's been designed to help people with spinal cord injuries help people stand up and walk. we have a structure here that goes around. and then we have these electric act waitors that actually help move the user. >> cut me about the genesis of the company? >> we started working at uc berkeley and spun the technology out of there. but the main impetus was to help soldiers with load carriage. two weeks after i started working on the project my brother who is a navy seal actually had an injury and broke his neck. so that planted the seed for injury and what it could do to help. that coupled with doctors seeing, they kept coming to us and saying you can help people walk again. >> so is there any way that i can tell actually test out the technology? >> so we always start with a walker. it gives us the most stability. then the first thing we're going to have to do is to slowly stand up. the robot is going to do all the work for your legs. so your knees and hips are going to be taken care of.

we're showing a lot of our wearable devices that came out in 2014. a lot of them were announced in partnership with ces last year. we're also showcasing a lot of the products that came out of the -- [inaudible] that we also announced last year. we announced three winners, and the grand prize winner was -- [inaudible] and they won $500,000 for their project. >> host: this was a wearable contest. >> guest: yes. >> host: okay. what was the winner? what was the actual invention? >> guest: it's a flying drone can. it's a flying selfie drone. you wear it on your wrist, and when you want to talk a picture, you gesture, it flies off your list, and it takes a picture and comes back to you like a boomerang. it's this really cool project. all the projects were really amazing, we were shocked. >> host: now, is that something that intel's going to put on the market or get on the market somehow? >> guest: we continue to support the make it wearable challenge contestants, but, yes, we showcased it at the keynote yesterday. our ceo had them on stage. >> host: andrea

we take a look at the advances of wearable tech including solar clothes. >> reporter: wearable technology grows in importance with each and every new necktology. whether it is wildly successful, like the shirt or pants iphone or the google glass ahead of its time. they are pushing it as far as the imagination will allow. >> wearable will be how you live your life. everything that is a part of your life will have some type of technology that is talking to some other type of technology. >> reporter: wearables are a major thrust of consumer electronics makers. >> i wear these everyday to listen to music. >> it will be a lot easier for the average person like me or you to use. but yeah, i'm really excited about what is to come. >> reporter: solar powered clotheing to keep your wearabling charged. but there could be a heavy charge. >> exposed to what some are calling electrosmog. >> reporter: radiation may cause users to get everything from lek toronto magnetic sensitivity to tumors. >> putting a transmitter on your body that emits micro wave radiation is potentially harmful. >> reporter: ther

these wearable tech tools they are just accessories. need a plan and know what you're going to do in advance. >> and test them. don't wait to think it's going to work when you need it. >> these are novelties and they certainly are cool and can be an accessory to your preparation but don't rely on them alone to protect you in an emergency. >> right. >> thank you. >>> in tonight's jobs report, cbs news business analyst jill schlesinger has a look at some underrated career options. >>> reporter: some jobs may be underrated and unglamorous but they still may be worth considering. remember the movie the graduate when dustin hoffman's character reacts to the idea of a career in plastics? well, before you reject any positions, consider this. "careercast" assembled a number of underrated professions that may be worth a second look. first at least exercise physiologist. this field includes professionals involved with illness and injury prevention, rehabilitation, personal trainers and recreational thens. they have an annual salary of $42,700. th

this is the first wearable technology, first piece of wearable technology and it's the first big rollout new product category in five years not since the ipad have we seen this rollout? here is a look at the apple watch starting at $350. here is what your money gets you. connect to the iphone 5 or 6, make calls, text message, a maps feature and also fitness track erin it and at 10:00 a.m. we expect last minute details like the launch date, more of the pricing structure and how long the batteries going to last. now since its apple there could be surprises along the way to go along with the anticipation. >> people are already estimating this to be the fastest selling product in apple's history, so there's very lofty expectations out there and it's going to be difficult for the company to exceed that. >> those lofty expectations are that apple will sell between 10 and 20 million watches in year one. coming up at 6:30 what critics say are the biggest challenges the apple watch faces. i'm in san francisco, kpix 5. >> thank you ryan. >>> drivers expect higher gas prices of course in oakland, a

and why look at wearable devices? >> wearable devices is an emerging area right. it allows part of the quantified-self movement, where we're starting to learn a little bit more about our own behavior getting a window into that kind of behavior that we haven't really seen before. one of the things we've noticed with this kind of research is that older adults, and adults in general, just really don't know how much activity they have during the day. they are not getting their recommended amount of activity during the day and these devices can help measure that, help motivate that, help change behavior and that's even more important as we age. >> reporter: andrew baranak, the lead industrial designer at georgia tech, gave us a quick tour of the wearable products. >> the fitbit charge is one of they're newer offerings. we've got the up from jawbone, and we've got the basis, which is a smart watch touch screen. the withings pulse, it's a we've got the spire, this is a little, a cool little activity tracker from a startup. >> reporter: the researchers follow up on consum

we have been working on wearables for over a year. yesterday, we launched salesforce for apple watch. so we have three parts to that. people can grow into the data. we have both a developer kit to allow people to take the framework and use the salesforce cloud platform to applications. numeral still use the apple schools as well but what you get with salesforce is security and identity and workflow, all the things you need another expanded quickly. it was great for us question is what was the technical challenge, and learning to read all applications for the watch. it is rethinking how people are going to use this in a quick way to become productive. cory: i was surprised that you focus resources on the war. it is good for marketing purposes, it put you on "bloomberg west." [laughter] but why did you not choose to develop for other platforms? just: we believe in the small business person front to make themselves more efficient with technology. we have proven that small business people want to adopt new platforms but you have to do it

>> the apple watch launch is a seminole event not just for apple but the wearables market.it's where the next frontier of technology op the consumer side, that's what investors are focused op. apple the gold standard for technology speaks to what happened getting put in the dow and a lot of investors focus on monday's event. this could open up another huge growth area across technology. >> jony ive the designer at the helm of the apple watch spoke to the financial times and talked about the difference between when apple was trying to create the iphone and the creation of the watch that will be unveiled and he basically said that with the cell phone, they hated the phones they were using so they had a clear problem to solve. with the watch they have a high regard for the watches they wear. does that make it harder to design something? >> a bit of an uphill battle in terms of the watch. why it's a bipolar issue among investors and consumers. as apple has shown time and time again, they've really created the categories. that's why everyone that's involved in wearables across c

eventually ewe all in. >> that is an excellent point because a wearable is something. before you buy a wirable, you probably want to touch it, feel it, try it on right? >> how about a -- >> maybe it will get people into the store and while they're in the store touching feeling, playing with the apple watch, they'll buy other products. sfla is he watching and he will do exactly what i'm going to say. you'll see it tomorrow. he will offer you a watch if you buy his apple phone. that's what he is going to do. >> you do that and i'll throw in an apple watch. >> then you're deeper into the ecosystem. >> because it's -- >> and then you buy the macbook, and the whole thing. >> everyone knows that that's what happens. if you have -- remember it's about 20 million. you don't want to use any of those numbers. in the end if you have a phone, you're probably wanting the darn watch. >> this is why they can charge the premium for their products. we have breaking news now. >> let's go to eamon javers in d.c. >> here's a story. up to 200 million people new york state attorney general

. >> we have been working on wearables for over a year.esterday, we launched salesforce for apple watch. we built an application, the analytics cloud, that people can glance at data and drill into a very simple, almost gamified way. it also allows people to use the apple salesforce cloud platform. cory: for that actually going to the apple os. >> they will still use the apple tools as well. but it is the biggest cloud app in the world. they get security and workflow all the things you need to work a business application really fast. and now they can extend to the watch really quickly. it was great for us. one of the things that was interestingly was less a technical challenge, but learning how to rebuild apps for the watch. it's not the same as taking the phone and shrinking it down. a three thinking how people are going to use this. cory: i was surprised your company took your limited resources and focus development on this watch. it is surely good for marketing purposes. if the you on "bloomberg west." but why did you make that choice an

joining us again is paul kedrosky as well as an analyst who covers wearables.ff, what do you expect in terms of units sold, and why do you expect that? >> thank you for having me. we are optimistic on the opportunity at about this team .4 million. we think supply will be well supplied -- will be well matching demand. -- 15.4 million. the diehard loyalists, the fan boys will camp out outside of the stores. you will get may be 3, 4 million in the first month that way by our estimation. steady uptick to the year and seasonally pretty good holiday buildup. the reason we are so optimistic and believe apple will legitimize the space is they bring the design pedigree and they bring the designer-curated options on to the wrists of users. history has shown it is pretty unwise to bet against apple. we are expecting something new in the smartphone user interface. hopefully a new metaphor for a nagging beginning -- navigating a smart watch. the sidewinder crown is maybe the tip of the iceberg. we will see where we go from there. cory: paul, any time someone tells me it is

ceo tim cook is taking a bet on wearable text with the launch of the new apple watch.tanley estimates apple could sells a many as 30 million with some analysts speculating it could be the catalyst that push the tech tie tan's share price to $1 trillion or market cap to $1 trillion. after this -- all of this after apple announcing it's moving home from the nasdaq to the dow on march 18th. you're by the wall because you have more on this. >> absolutely. as we saw the announcement. apple would reat&t on the index. some thinks it makes the dow more hip. it's the first tech firm to be list there had. historically there have been a few at relations on the dow that lead to stock price moves. in 2013 helpp replace inging virgin. in the one that would be happening in about a week's time is at&t replaced by apple. now looking at the performance to each of the stocks since they did exit the dow. they've done pretty well. as you can see alcoa a massive 75%. hewlett-packard up and citigroup up. what does it mean for apple itself as it joins the dow? we're joined by daniel gleason a

these new models are going to give consumers greater choice when it comes to wearables. but competition will be fierce, for many people such a high tech and expensive watch will remain a luxury item. it wasn't a smart watch or an activity tracking that won this year's prize at the world mobile congress for innovation. ned it was a project that is dealing with maternal health in morocco. the mobile ultrasound patrol took low-cost ultrasound machines to villages. the women were scanned, and the images were sent to doctors in the city. they were able to respond in hours with all the necessary follow up. the result of these scans dropped from 80 to just $2. meaning these women for the first time could access life-saving technology that many people in the world take for granted. al jazeera barcelona. >> well, that's it for this news hour from doha. from me and the whole team, thank you for watching. lauren taylor is life with you next. i hope you do stay with us. >> on al jazeera america >> a team of scientists are taking their inspiration from nature. >> technology...it's a

your cousin is coming up and we will be talking to -- and what they will be doing next with wearablese do they see the story developing? >> looking forward to it. that is it for on the move. the picture of the markets as we head to the break. a decent day. deliver late -- ireland delivers the best pmi since 1999. guy: defying putin. thousands take to the streets of moscow. we will look at the political and investment implications. francine: china stocks close higher after it central-bank cuts the interest rate. guy: and a sneak peek at samsung. bloomberg gets a look at the company's latest smartphone at the mobile world congress. good morning. you are watching "the pulse." i'm guy johnson.

i think the wearables theme will evolve. worried about battery life they're worried about pricing. as we look to version 2.0 and ahead, those will be solutions that will be solved. so the market should get interesting. >> oliver, do we have to talk about different geographic markets when it comes to demand for the apple watch? as i understand there's much more vibrant luxury demand for these kind of products over in china. japan has a great luxury market. is that where they're going to be when it comes to buyers of this product? >> the long-term story for luxury goods is emerging markets exposure. i think that will continue to be true. if you think about apple, tim murk mercury is my partner here. the brand transitions to a real experiencial kind of brand. so i think it's a balance of both. >>> when we come back what will push the euro to hit parity with the dollar? it's a story having a huge effect on american business, on stocks, on other assets. we'll talk to a technical analyst on currencies, next. so why pause to take a

>> a lot of focus on apple's wearable technology.f course european central bank's quantitative easing moves which kicked off on monday. so let's have a look at the reaction here for the nikkei and the topix. for march 10th. and we're seeing both trading in the positive. actually, i can tell you the nikkei did pop above 18,900. the high was 924. it backed off a little bit. we'll see if we can get back above that. yesterday the nikkei closed down nearly 1%. the biggest loss in more than a month. investors becoming a little worried about japan's growth after the latest revised gdp figures for the last quarter of 2014 weren't as good as expected. now, however, the nikkei is taking its view from currency markets and of course growth prospects in the u.s. and with the dollar rising again against the yen we are seeing that positive result for the nikkei. we'll see how that develops. there's some concerns of course about the earlier than expected rate hike in the u.s. by the federal reserve, which is going to hold a policy meeting next week.

wearable devices make it possible to collect very personal terabytes of information daily about us.g that information securing it, is critical. cory: i use this to figure out when i am asleep or how well i am sleeping, to monitor my steps. i should hit 10,000 today. that is not especially secret information. when i go to bed -- i suppose. miller: the initial release of iwatch is more of a front and to a pretty low power -- front in ned. as applications become more prevalent with biometrics, the device will be able to track anything connected to the internet. information becomes even more critical when it is shared with your physician or with a health care provider or with your company. the only way to protect that information is to encrypt it at the information data level. i think the first benefit of the iwatch is the fact that most of us use a four digit pin code to access our iphone. with the iwatch, you will be able to have multi factor authentication. in order to access any of the information generated on your phone or ipad or the watch, the physical presence of the watch combi

the idea is wearable computing. wearable communication.e ability to, as you mentioned, pay for goods and services with a flick of your wrist, to read your heartbeat, to send your heartbeat to your loved ones or draw a little doodle to your wife or your kids or your mom. all kinds of things are possible. and as with other apple products, like when the ipad launched, it's one of those design moments where you don't know that you actually need it until you have it in your hands. >> is that part of the appeal of apple here, too? i say i know it's going to be a hit because it's an apple product. can apple basically put anything out and people are going to buy it? they can make up a -- oh yeah you really need this gizmatron for your kitchen and everybody would buy it because it's apple? >> at this point they have a strong enough track record with innovative products, at the end of the day we're going to be suckers and try them out. what's most interesting about the watch is not what happens at launch. this is the tip of the iceberg. and once the

we do now the spotlight will be on apple's first wearable device.he eventful happened at 10:00 this morning break across the street from us here. you can see a lot of activity here. in the meantime tim cook is ready to go for the event as well. this is what he tweeted out this morning. this is what the invite to this event looked like when it first went out, it simply read, "spring forward". this watch is supposed to start at $349 but the company has been very tightlipped about the full range of prices. we do know there is a high end version made of 18 karat gold that could cost as much as $10,000. the device will connect with your iphone and apple has been working with developers on another of apps for the smartwatch. it may be able to start up your car. it may even be able to guide you to your destination with simple taps on your wrist. there is a question about battery life, some analysts worry the watch may not be able to last a full day of heavy use on a single charge. also today we should get an exact date for the launch of the smartwatch so p

guy johnson: there are other wearables that would work better?google glass. >> i think we have a literal interpretation of what a wearable is. all the devices that can be connected to the internet whether they are on your skin or not. this feels like a vanity project. i just don't think that's how the market is going to play out. guy johnson: the advantage is its in contact with your skin. it works is a biometric device in ways i don't think we fully understand yet. whether or not this could do security by reading our heart rate or the differences that exist in our heart rate is the ability to marry this with technology produce some interesting integrations -- innovations? >> i do think that's an interesting space. it feels to me like a tiny subset. when you look at the success of the iphone 6, that's because it hit mass-market. you are talking about a subset of 24 to 35-year-old man in asia who are interested in biometrics, it doesn't feel like a killer project to me. guy johnson: thank you very much. now sticking with retail, we will talk about

wearable tech. quickly do we move away from the card which is another progression. >> we have already started to do the wearables in spain, where wristbands so that you can pay when you are on the beach and you don't have to carry a wallet with you but that is gradual. they represent only 15% of the transactions. checks are still around and mobile is on the rise see you have to differentiate between the growth rate when you start from nothing in mobile payment, the growth rates are higher the when you look at where is the money it is still with the sim cards and the passport and the services that are around. twitter and what is next will come and it will take 10 to 15 years before the become massive. >> the other stories written around your company are apple doing their own sim card and i've heard your story that it is a growth opportunity. what comes to mind for me is why look at what everybody else is doing are you not really just and true for somebody else to come along and by your intellectual c

now you have another utility conductor that specialized in touch, wearables and lightning. they operate in similar connected markets with the fast growing data center business and big communications like wireless base stations. but it also does medical image systems and patient monitoring. samsung is coming to the fold too. how about the company created they choose to go head to head on radio frequency for cell phones. they're meant to do one thing, change the balance of power between them and the cell phone makers. how do i know this? it's on their website. offer better bargaining power and make it harder for customers such as am and samsung to negotiate prices. two thumbs up. i like also the communication specialists and xpi semi. these mergers create a one stop shop for devices to talk to each other. they provide the cell phone base. best in class audio technology. the company is able to stay independent because it's able to keep ahead of the competition. now given the runs in these stocks you can say you missed the move. would come back and say how could you be so pessi
