Wearable YAK USB Drives for Emergencies

  December 2nd, 2005



USB flash drives save lives. (Hmm, the truth that rhymes.) YAK Biotech Solutions has developed a wearable flash drive that slips on your wrist, containing emergency contacts, medical notes and history filled out electronically, along with a mix of Metallica songs in case you're ever feeling down in the down under.

The YAK Alert drive has already won the Young Achievement Australia's National Award for most innovative product of the year facing stiff competition from other Aussie universities, and is endorsed by the ambulances and Asthma foundation of Victoria. Trial runs are currently underway.
