WEARABLE SMART DEVICE AND METHOD FOR REDUNDANT OBJECT IDENTIFICATION

A wearable smart device includes a sensor configured to detect data corresponding to a detected object, a memory configured to store a contact list including contact information for a plurality of contact devices and to store stored data corresponding to a plurality of stored objects, an antenna and a processor. The processor is programmed to determine whether the detected object can be identified by comparing the detected data to the stored data, to transmit the detected data to at least one of the plurality of contact devices via the antenna in response to not being able to identify the detected object by comparing the detected data to the stored data and to receive an identification of the detected object from the at least one of the plurality of contact devices. The wearable smart device also includes an output unit to output the identification of the detected object.
