Straight out of Star Trek: TNG is this inspired communicator badge, called CommBadge. CommBadge is a wearable personal communicator for iPhone and Android.

Combadges were used for on-board ship communication with other Starfleet personnel when using the internal communication system was impossible or impractical, for accessing the on-board computer when not in an area that the computer is monitoring, for ship-to-shore communications, and for direct communication to another combadge.
