Wearable Devices Strengthens AI Advisory Board with Former Google and Qualcomm Executives to Accelerate ai6 Labs’ Vision

Yokneam Illit, Israel, March 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wearable Devices Ltd. (Nasdaq: WLDS, WLDSW) (“Wearable Devices” or the “Company”), a technology growth company specializing in artificial intelligence (“AI”)-powered touchless sensing wearables, today announced a significant expansion of its AI expert advisory board. This strategic enhancement strengthens the Company's commitment to advancing neural AI innovation through ai6 Labs.

The recently launched ai6 Labs is focused on advancing the Company’s revolutionary neural AI technology powered by non-invasive electromyography (EMG) technology and the Mudra platform, supporting a closed-loop ecosystem designed to seamlessly connect human intent with digital reality. Unlike fragmented research efforts or isolated products, this integrated platform integrates deep foundational research, commercialization, and rapid AI experimentation into a virtuous cycle that accelerates innovation, redefining touchless, intent-driven human-machine interaction and positioning Wearable Devices at the forefront of the next era in computing.

Leor Stern has joined the advisory board as Senior AI Advisor for strategic growth. Bringing deep expertise from
leading AI, wearables, and digital health teams at Google, including several acquisitions in wearables (including Fitbit and Misfit technologies for Wear OS) and developing AI-integrated smartwatch platforms at Cronologics Corporation (which Google acquired), Leor will help guide the Company’s strategy, value proposition, growth and partnerships as the Company continues to expand its global activities.

Leor joins Pankaj Kedia, Senior AI Advisor for the past three years, a globally renowned AI thought leader and former executive from Qualcomm and Intel Corp. with extensive experience incubating and growing businesses across the data center and smart edge AI devices (including IoT, wearables, audio, PCs and smartphones). Pankaj has decided to extend his collaboration and continue to support the Company’s AI initiatives.

This builds on the recent appointment of Ron Kaldes as Head of Growth, AI & Innovation, who brings consumer tech leadership (including roles related to Microsoft Xbox and Nintendo/LEGO distribution) and AI strategy to drive ai6 Labs initiatives, including the Mudra Experience Studio, a universal neural input platform for extended reality (“XR”) and AI developers.
