Hoping to attract tech-savvy young Catholics to traditiona­l rituals, the Vatican has released the erosary, a wearable device connected to an app available for $110, reported engadget. Worn as a bracelet, the device is activated by making the sign of the cross and features 10beads and a data-storing “smart cross,” which will help the devout pray a standard rosary, a contemplat­ive rosary or a thematic rosary and keeps track of each rosary prayed. The app also downloads health informatio­n from the bracelet.
