Via fellow futurist Scott Smith, this pretty amazing concept piece: the Wearable Pregnancy Ultrasound.

The description:

PreVue is a solution to enhancing maternal-fetal bonding as a reassurance window. It is an e-textile based apparatus that uses 4D ultrasound. Latest stretchable display technology is also employed on the abdominal region, allowing other members of the family especially the father to connect with the foetus in its context. PreVue not only gives you the opportunity to interact and comprehend the physical growth of the baby, but also an early understanding of its personality as you see it yawning, rolling, smiling etc., bringing you closer till the day it finally rests into your arms.

Now, leaving aside the question of what could possibly go wrong here, and that this is ultrasound technology that's vivid enough to shoot an episode of The Hobbit (a far cry from the last time I looked at an ultrasound), I've gotta wonder: it's a "solution"? Pregnant women don't already bond with the babies they're carrying? They don't develop some sense of how active they are?

I like the idea of wearables as much as the next person, but this is going to be an example of how not to think about them.
