The Information Ring by Hideaki Matsui

Imagine information transfers done remotely when two wearers of the information ring come into close proximity (such as through a handshake). After the tiring event in which you'd met at least dozens of people, you could retrieve info about everyone you'd met at your own pace. The ring is simply placed into an electrhttp://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifonic business card, which would read the info and display the various profiles.

Definitely a great concept by designer Hideaki Matsui, especially since most of us do not possess a photographic memory. The key is to have everyone wearing the rings. Looking forward to this concept being developed towards that stage.
