Just had an idea, maybe not the wrist for mobile devices, maybe a ring that is always on the hand that is on the back of the phone. I don't know, but I can't help but think of how things can be more secure and that there is a market for those with security in mind.

Just found this also in my search while typing this comment.

Looks like it might be open source as well?

Might be something to keep check on, it supposedly doesn't release until mid 2017.

EDIT: Just thought about if this is open source, anyone could possibly tie it in with automation apps such as Tasker and really do neat stuff.

I don't like rings (you put on your fingers). But that's just a personal preference. I'd be okay with wristbands though. Yes, the proximity to smartphone NFC readers would be a benefit of a ring.
