We've got fitness trackers, smartwatches, and smart rings that can precisely log our sleep, workouts, stress, and more with minimal user legwork, but one holistic tracking pain point that persists is food logging.Sure, lots of companion apps, including Garmin Connect and the Oura app, let you manually log your calorie and nutritional intake, but what if there was an easier way?The Odyss N1 AI necklace is aiming to be the missing link. Still a concept, I had the chance to demo the Odyss N1 at IFA 2026 in Berlin, and even though I'm slightly skeptical of its capabilities, I'm seriously intrigued by what it potentially offers.

This power module also boasts haptic feedback for notifications.
