The document discusses witnessed presence in networked wearables. It provides background on the growing field of wearable electronics and its potential to reinvent human connection and address modern disconnection. The document presents a case study of the wearable device BOND, which uses touch interactions to enhance witnessed presence between intimate partners. Research was conducted through desk research, an internship with BOND's creators, interviews with designers, and analysis of how BOND's interactions map onto a framework for witnessed presence. Key findings include that wearables can act as technological extensions of the human, and that BOND's discreet touch interactions may facilitate a "quantum of witnessed presence" between users.
