The first time I have seen a Snapchat Spectacles video this acronym came in my mind, “What You See Is What I see” – the WYSIWIS experience. And this is what amazed me from the first moment: I can make you see, what I see!
I truly believe that any tech insights should be judged by the user experience. Can I imagine to use this technology? YES, the Spectacles are actually a pair of cool sunglasses apparently equipped with a camera. Do I feel comfortable using the technology? YES, with one push I can take pictures or record videos what are exported to my Snapchat account immediately. Does the technology have any added value to my life? YES, I can capture and share experiences, what I could never do before.
Imagine a cooking show, where instead of looking at the cook you can see with his eyes how to create the food. Or a travel documentary where you can actually see what the place really looks for a tourist. Amazing, isn’t it? While VR is a great piece of technology it is definitely not ready for a commercial use. Wearables like Snapchat Spectacles are cool and totally worth the investment.
Well, here is my gadget tip for the Summer holidays! 🙂
A few weeks ago, we set out on an afternoon tour with a friend in Luxembourg. Public transport in the city is very easy to use, even though they were the first in the world to make it completely free of charge in the whole country, you can easily transfer from one type of public transport to another.
