LAS VEGAS—With every other booth on the show floor displaying some type of wearable, it os refreshing to see something new at the TAO Wellness booth where the company shows off a device that has been nicknamed the 'WellShell.'
A compact, palm-sized device with an OLED display, the WellShell looks a little like a futuristic remote control—with no buttons. Instead, the WellShell operates using tilting, tapping, and pressing to activate its force and pressure sensors.
So, in order to turn it on, you tilt it back and forth, and in order to exercise using the WellShell, you press on both sides while following instructions on a tablet or smartphone.
