Myntra is also looking to bring in smart features through a combination of varied sensors and connectivity modules for audio wear, footwear, eyewear and apparels. “The Blink Go is built from the ground up on the ‘Myntra Wearables Platform (MWP) which enables the creation of a wide variety of wearables which can instantly discover and communicate with each other. This platform will form the basis for all future development of such products,” said Myntra in a press statement.
