HTC's competing, with promises of a wearable device this side of Christmas. Apple's at it, with rumours suggesting that sleep monitoring will be part of the functionality of its much-hyped iWatch. And of course Google's at it, with ever more uses for Google Glass.

The NYPD wants to see if Google Glass can make its people more efficient, and so does Virgin Atlantic: this week the airline announced a trial of Google Glass for its Upper Class customers. There may be a downside to that, though: Gary Marshall says, "Such uses will make wearables like the Windows PCs of yore: the kit you associate with boring stuff you do in your day job."
That's already true if your day job is being an athlete. As Hugh Langley explains, "if the US bobsled and skeleton team win big at this year's Winter Olympics, they'll have more than their coaches to thank… [they] have been perfecting their technique using free video analysis app Ubersense Coach on the iPad." |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In this week | | | | | | | ■ | Week in Tech: From wearables to Winter Olympics: gadget getup is going for gold | | | | | | | ■ | Talking points: Galaxy S5 leak, iPhone 6 screen, beyond the Internet of Things, is Apple killing the 5C? | | | | | | | ■ | Competition: Win!
