A foldable screen from LG is making waves at CES. The technology allows flat screen to bend and fold — like a newspaper, which LG states. Bendable screens are pushing the boundaries of where the screen can be used among wearables.

Meet OmBra, a brassiere that monitors heart and breathing rates plus calories burned. To be fare, the device, so to speak, looks much like a sports bra rather than something consumers may want to wear out and about.
