Former Motorola CEO Sanjay Jha'smega-startup, Ineda Systems, claims it has developed a processor forwearable devices that enables 30 days of battery life under standby.Called Dhanush (presumably after the performer of thatKolaveri Di song Hindi word for "longbow"), the platform is said to consume ten times lesspower than the re-purposed smartphone chipsets used in the currentcrop of smart-bands and watches.





Dhanush features Hierarchical Computing that allows applications and tasks to run at the right power optimized performance and memory footprint and has an always-on sensor hub optimized for wearable devices. It will come in four versions,ranging between Advanced, Optima, Micro and Nano. Each is designed for specific applications and product segments.
