Here is my take, since I have not heard one reviewer talk about this aspect: For Crazy Stories and Security Stories, these Story glasses are great. They are actually cheap if you think about it from a defense perspective. For road rage, police, crime and other unforeseen interactions they are a great tool. Hands free, record sound, and give you 30 secs of instant video before you get your phone out. The sound recording also allows verbal recording of a lic plate, threats, or other vital info. I like them for an additional defensive tool in a crazy world.
@@SHADOW-vh6bs that limb is correct. It’s like we need footage of every human interaction at his or her job… oh wait, that would be boring since the police have the cool job.
@@CamaroSS2236 It's not about capturing on-the-job footage to entertain you, dummy. Maybe catch up on some recent modern current events since, like, 2018, there, space cadet... you repeatedly are either willfully or stupidly missing the point.

For those who say its the same as security cameras, well Security cameras doesn't have wings to fly and follow you around nor they take the perfect shot at the proper location using GPS :'D
Facebook gives people access to their moments though. Your brain cannot retain all of the information that you experience, so your moments are effectively lost if they are not recorded in any fashion. This technology literally gives more meaning and context to peoples' lives.
fb tracks a lot of things -- location, contacts, device info and even monitors whole messaging history. Now they will even see what people see. Only future will tell what atrocities comes next
You can... On Instagram. The problem is, there's reports of creepy dudes using them to hit on women, and then pepper spray them. I love Ray bans but these are stupid
they need to combine this with dashcam hardware: continuous recording but when something awesome happens, press the button to record it. to clarify, it would auto delete the record past 60 seconds, unless you want to keep it. maybe the 2.0 will. (i havent heard about a 2.0, im js)
@@MatthewRumble Yes and those cameras have a data controller, the images are recorded onto a secured server and us operators go through security clearance and licencing. There are regulations to adhere to that even the police can't just walk on in and demand to see footage. Nor are the cameras actively monitored for one simple fact, we have too much going on to be watching some random person go about his day, nevernind identifying them via social media, its just not possible. So its not what you think... half those cameras don't even work properly. They're old, dirty, faulty and the cables simply can't handle even HD cameras. The network is just too long and fibre optics is too expensive to install. So you'd be lucky to even move a ptz half way across the city half the time, nevermind without it lagging.

This technology is going to make everyone’s lives more valuable and meaningful. Leave it to humans to think that they are some how better off by having less access to the world around them.
In 1984, one of the concerns was that everything we were doing was being recorded. People ain't afraid of that anymore, we readily surrender incredibly sensitive insights into our personal lives to companies that have the lone directive to make money.
@@spqri3 the big difference is that memories are not perfect, your average person gets some details incorrect. Video recordings get everything and can be shown to the public.
@@thechimfan1313 This makes no sense though. Why should we validate your inability to properly record the world around you? More and accurate data is what we should be striving for.
I just wanted to take a minute and appreciate the fact that we’re talking about photo and video glasses. I still remember my dad with his clunky camcorder and VHS tape transfer.
I remember back in about 98’ when me and my cousin was listening to the radio in my moms kitchen and was talking about how in the future we’ll be able to video call people with cell phones
Fellow dad here I can relate to your own Dad with fond memories lugging this ginormous old school VHS camcorder along with an over the shoulder 12-pound battery and tape deck accessory all around the magic kingdom in Orlando capturing which are now near and dear Disney memories of my kids on VHS that I now have digitalized.
@@MatthewRumble thank you someone with sense. With the amount of complaining people do about privacy you would think they’re creating some top secret projects.

These will bring up some interesting situations I'm sure in business's that doesn't want you to record. That little light showing it's recording I'm sure could be covered up with a tiny black speck of black tape. Probably in the long run we just gonna have to suffer more Karen videos on youtube lol
Looks pretty darn close to the camera glasses I bought over year ago. Mine does not have rayban name but were less then 10% of the rayban price. I use them for person to person on line sales (safety). As mush as I like Rayban I will keep my imports, maybe invest 25 more dollars for another set.
Next: "Facebook Bedtime Stories" 🤦🏻♂️ A bed with a camera so that fb never misses the most intimate moments of your life. It's only intended to make you happier of course! This nonsense needs to stop.
@C People's lives are so boring that fb makes around 20 to 30 billion a year collecting, analyzing and selling their data. What you perceive as boring is considered a gold mine to behavioral psychologists and marketers looking at studying and steering people's habits. The reality is that fb has been known to use such information for questionable purposes with little oversight and even less transparency. If you don't mind sharing every detail of your life, that's on you. The problem is that corporations like fb use your consent to gather not only your data, but that of everyone you know and everyone around you. There's a reason human beings have been living in enclosed spaces that confer them some level of privacy for the past few thousand years. Privacy is a basic human need/right.
@@techdesigner9741 Well said and when you don't have privacy you have nothing. The sad thing is that privacy seems to be gone and has almost become a foreign word. These actually would be great to have on vacation etc, but millions of Americans walking around all day with video cameras strapped to their faces live streaming, and video recording everything everywhere they go. What could go wrong! Which we already have with smartphones. Walking down my street there are many houses with doorbell cameras now. I can't imagine growing up with this kind of technology at my fingertips, where everyone was recording everything, and as you said, scientists, companies, and government, sitting back and studying your reactions to it all, and if you come up with any good ideas, stealing the info for their own profit and benefiting off of it. But like the former CIA director said. We lie, cheat, and steal.
@@chrisfulop8403 Agreed. Most people are well intentioned and want to live their life without bothering or being bothers by others. Plus, they trust that, in a democracy, there are mechanisms in place to protect their rights and that therefore they don't need to do anything. It's magical thinking: "Someone else will surely do something about it."
I definitely watched this video with the audio through my RayBan smart glasses haha! I honestly love them and like how subtle and simple they are. I like using them when driving to pick up photos and videos without taking my hands off the wheel. But…these are also my first smart glasses so maybe I’m easily impressed. :)
I absolutely love mine so much! Capturing candid moments with family and friends is the best....my nephew acts completely different when you pull the camara out to record him. I'm sure some ppl will use them for evil and that's a shame. I think I love the idea of them more than the execution. No zoom feature, basically unusable at night, poor camara quality, mic volume to low..unless in a completely quiet room, battery life is terrible, videos only 30 seconds long (needs to be a least 60 seconds imo)...and sometimes the glasses are glitchy - connection issues etc. At 300 I can't and wouldn't recommend them to anyone...that notwithstanding I love mine and happy I purchased them and pray the V2 (if not discontinued) will be a big leap forward.
if yall dont buy that glasses, mark will threaten your social media and force u to buy. lol he properbly say u need them glasses to sign in to your account lol
These could be really good however limiting it to 30 second videos make it not worth it in my opinion. I feel for the price point we should be able to get 30 minutes of video with at least a 720p video quality minimum. These could be great for hiking vlogs, motorcycle riding (inside your helmet) or many more situations. Close but no cigar for me. Great looks with under par quality as far as video or camera.
I FINALLY got mine and I LOVE them. They connect to my iPhone the second I put them on, they're just loud enough to not be obnoxious and the pics / video are clear and not jacked up. Overall, it covers all the basics without a lot of compromise.
@@chenguavez347 Video is simple. I enable voice so I just say, "Hey Facebook....take a video." and it records a 60 sec video. Same goes for pics as well. You can also use voice for texts, phone calls, etc. Anything that you can dictate to Siri or Google is pretty much covered.
I am really enjoying my pair of Stories. I have polarized prescription sunglass lenses installed. They cut out on me once while walking in cold weather (-8 celsius). I'm looking forward to wearing them while riding my motorcycle in the spring/summer though I suspect the noise of the bike may be a bit of a problem.
I Could see them being cool for Borosilicate glassblowing videos if the lenses were Ace Didymium . Not sure how heat resistant the frame is though. Would need special filters on the cameras as well to see through the flame.
Idc what anyone says these are rly useful for a scientist like me sometimes youre doing something hands free in labs and cannot also simultaneously take videos for many reasons among them chemical spills. Having this to log everything you did seemlesly would be so frk useful. I miss google glass i wouldve bought that too had it not failed for some reason.
When will they make smart glasses that actually improve your vision? Like focussing near or far and zoom and macro, etc. Don't care about audio or VR or digital assistants or anything like that.
Really don’t like the fact that the images are stored by Facebook and not locally on your phone. Also no mention of storage capacity or did I miss that?
The disadvantage is it's not meant for people who wear optical glasses already, I change my shades lenses to fit my vision .. In addition this is meant for outdoors only! I would only buy a smart device that I can use anywhere, not limited as such ..
I always think of these side releases as gadgets that failed to make it to the operative world and instead they made it public business for everyone. First drones, now this.. still waiting for explosive pens.
So true. The govt actually has a whole department whose job it is to militarize new patents and new everything that makes it to their desk. Their entire R&D department probably with tech innovators literally come up with things like this. We know that spy movies have been using pinhole cameras in everything from glasses to jewelry, etc. These glasses are not a new concept at all. They picked a popular company that they knew would price gouge but also have the money to provide premium quality. What they are gonna do is bring out this water downed version, make a ton of money then come out with upgraded versions having people basically buy the same item because they decided you could record longer or have better resolution. These companies aren’t stupid
If that glasses have an ability like an VR that will amazing, but if doesn't it really like an ordinary sun glasses that have a camera and audio, it much better to used your phone than buying that things with the same future or function of your phone.
The people who complained that Google glass was creepy didn’t know what they were looking at. And, that’s the only reason you would ask if this is creepy. Google’s version allowed for video recording but only for a handful of minutes. When was the last time you were in a public place and did NOT see a bunch of phones out any one of which could be recording for a substantially longer amount of time.
The creepy thing is when people are recording without those around knowing it. It is already the case with smartphones to some degree. But these smart-glasses take it to another level. In the distant future everything you say and think will be recorded and stored for eternity. Then it can be used against you at any time and with any motive.
Imagine discussing politics, religion, or even healthcare with friends and minutes later having your glasses bricked by FB for 'wrong think'. Just a matter of time.
I made a prototype from some Chinese glasses with a camera and I have managed to control them without touching them or saying a single word. What's more, you can look at me with them on and I'll give you $100 if you guess when l'm taking photos or videos of you. I am doing some things to get a superior prototype and launch them on the market through crowdfunding, but I am going slowly since I have never launched any other product. The control system using cephalic-facial gestures can be incorporated into any glasses, including Ray-Ban | Goal. The sensors that I incorporate are 3 and they do not consume any additional energy to function, in addition, I also made a system for them to charge them while you use them without it being noticed and it has turned out as I expected. The glasses still look identical, you don't notice anything additional when you wear them.
Google glass failed because you couldn’t tell whether or not someone was recording or taking a picture of you. These kind of glasses are perfect for stalker creeps.
I just bought a pair in the flat grey clear lenses that transition in the sun. I paid $370+tax+$20 warranty offered thru sunglass hut to now feel like the biggest creep, only to realize I’m now probably being creeped on by Facebook even more and can kiss my privacy settings out the window. It’s whatever, at least I look good.. win some lose some haha
A little research and you would have found out that both the regular version and the prescription can come as sun, transitions or clear lenses. So they can be your everyday glasses
I can’t think of a gadget I’m less excited for. I don’t know why, the tech is sort of amazing, but I’m not really feeling the use cases where these are suddenly better than a simple smartphone. I also don’t like that everything is becoming more and more dependent on a good smartphone anyway. Wearables just don’t do much for me, yet at least.
I’m totally with you. The only wearable I’m into are the true wireless earbuds. But other than that I’ve skipped the smartwatch love and now smart sunglasses. though I do like sunglasses alone.
@@sarizonana yeah, considering these are less than a pair of Oakleys they could be called a value. But I’m already intruded on enough in my daily life without having some body monitoring what I’m looking at too
@@slappy0079 yes, so true again, wearables are just not exciting, tech yes totally and well these glasses are fun to look at but it’s not something like I’m dying to get and neither a smartwatch. I love my iPad, my smartphone and my earbuds but if I wanted a watch I’d get a regular nice Michael Kors or Fossil and for sunglasses, I just got a pair of regular RayBan wayferers. i wonder if the sellers at sunglasshut and similar feel surprised when we don’t go looking for the Rayban stories. and we just go for our typical regular sunnies. I also making my coffee in my Nesspresso but that’s simple tech So yeah I love tech and fashion but not together. I mean what’s next a bottle perfume where you can check your messages ? Lol 😂 Fashion and tech should stay separately.
Imagine glasses with AR or VR for blind people capable of sensing and telling whats directly in front of you like keys, or take video if you fall to save what happened, or giving indications of where you are or where to go in closed spaces like malls or even connect to streetlights to safely cross them

In 1984, one of the concerns was that everything we were doing was being recorded. People ain't afraid of that anymore, we readily surrender incredibly sensitive insights into our personal lives to companies that have the lone directive to make money.
Id use this when hiking and mountain biking as opposed to a go pro. Shame u can only take 30 second clips with them tho
do we really want to feel like someone is permanently recording us?
Your memories are nothing more than recordings of the world that your brain makes. You literally cannot function without things being recorded.
@@spqri3 the big difference is that memories are not perfect, your average person gets some details incorrect. Video recordings get everything and can be shown to the public.
Yeah no different than security cameras
@@spqri3 "that your brain records", not some random joe blogg walking along the street with face recognition.
@@thechimfan1313 This makes no sense though. Why should we validate your inability to properly record the world around you? More and accurate data is what we should be striving for.

People do not buy this mess. At some point you have to step away from social media, this is a big no

@C yes, it appears we are all aware of that
I just wanted to take a minute and appreciate the fact that we’re talking about photo and video glasses. I still remember my dad with his clunky camcorder and VHS tape transfer.
I remember back in about 98’ when me and my cousin was listening to the radio in my moms kitchen and was talking about how in the future we’ll be able to video call people with cell phones
Fellow dad here I can relate to your own Dad with fond memories lugging this ginormous old school VHS camcorder along with an over the shoulder 12-pound battery and tape deck accessory all around the magic kingdom in Orlando capturing which are now near and dear Disney memories of my kids on VHS that I now have digitalized.

These will bring up some interesting situations I'm sure in business's that doesn't want you to record. That little light showing it's recording I'm sure could be covered up with a tiny black speck of black tape. Probably in the long run we just gonna have to suffer more Karen videos on youtube lol

I think they should make the cameras hidden or invisible so we can catch fishy moments too

Looks pretty darn close to the camera glasses I bought over year ago. Mine does not have rayban name but were less then 10% of the rayban price. I use them for person to person on line sales (safety). As mush as I like Rayban I will keep my imports, maybe invest 25 more dollars for another set.
whats the name of them
What is your brand?
Next: "Facebook Bedtime Stories" 🤦🏻♂️
A bed with a camera so that fb never misses the most intimate moments of your life. It's only intended to make you happier of course!
This nonsense needs to stop.
@C People's lives are so boring that fb makes around 20 to 30 billion a year collecting, analyzing and selling their data.
What you perceive as boring is considered a gold mine to behavioral psychologists and marketers looking at studying and steering people's habits. The reality is that fb has been known to use such information for questionable purposes with little oversight and even less transparency.
If you don't mind sharing every detail of your life, that's on you. The problem is that corporations like fb use your consent to gather not only your data, but that of everyone you know and everyone around you.
There's a reason human beings have been living in enclosed spaces that confer them some level of privacy for the past few thousand years. Privacy is a basic human need/right.
@@techdesigner9741 Well said and when you don't have privacy you have nothing. The sad thing is that privacy seems to be gone and has almost become a foreign word. These actually would be great to have on vacation etc, but millions of Americans walking around all day with video cameras strapped to their faces live streaming, and video recording everything everywhere they go. What could go wrong! Which we already have with smartphones. Walking down my street there are many houses with doorbell cameras now. I can't imagine growing up with this kind of technology at my fingertips, where everyone was recording everything, and as you said, scientists, companies, and government, sitting back and studying your reactions to it all, and if you come up with any good ideas, stealing the info for their own profit and benefiting off of it. But like the former CIA director said. We lie, cheat, and steal.
@@chrisfulop8403 Agreed. Most people are well intentioned and want to live their life without bothering or being bothers by others. Plus, they trust that, in a democracy, there are mechanisms in place to protect their rights and that therefore they don't need to do anything. It's magical thinking: "Someone else will surely do something about it."
99% of people are dumb sheep. They will do what they are told and the future will be even more dystopian than you can imagine.
@@jandersen6802 They don't even have to tell people to do it. Just package their spying and guiding in a fancy new toy that people can't wait to have.
I definitely watched this video with the audio through my RayBan smart glasses haha!
I honestly love them and like how subtle and simple they are. I like using them when driving to pick up photos and videos without taking my hands off the wheel.
But…these are also my first smart glasses so maybe I’m easily impressed. :)
When the 30 seconds has passed after filming, does the video feature automatically shut off, or does it automatically start recording a second video?
They sucked before there trust me
NOPE
If humanity needs to evolve we need to trust cameras
I absolutely love mine so much! Capturing candid moments with family and friends is the best....my nephew acts completely different when you pull the camara out to record him. I'm sure some ppl will use them for evil and that's a shame. I think I love the idea of them more than the execution. No zoom feature, basically unusable at night, poor camara quality, mic volume to low..unless in a completely quiet room, battery life is terrible, videos only 30 seconds long (needs to be a least 60 seconds imo)...and sometimes the glasses are glitchy - connection issues etc. At 300 I can't and wouldn't recommend them to anyone...that notwithstanding I love mine and happy I purchased them and pray the V2 (if not discontinued) will be a big leap forward.
Do they take wide-angle photos and video?
Ray-Ban Stories Cool or creepy?
First comment I read: *uncle secretly recording his nephew*
"I love mine so much"....to "I think I love the idea of them..." to "I pray for the new version" I already see a problem!

He literally wants to see what you’re seeing
Imagine watching a Ray-Ban stories ad on a ray ban stories review
These could be really good however limiting it to 30 second videos make it not worth it in my opinion. I feel for the price point we should be able to get 30 minutes of video with at least a 720p video quality minimum. These could be great for hiking vlogs, motorcycle riding (inside your helmet) or many more situations. Close but no cigar for me. Great looks with under par quality as far as video or camera.
Agreed. put a microsd slot in there and you should be able to shoot until the battery runs out.
I FINALLY got mine and I LOVE them. They connect to my iPhone the second I put them on, they're just loud enough to not be obnoxious and the pics / video are clear and not jacked up. Overall, it covers all the basics without a lot of compromise.
How does the recording work? 30 secs then next video begins?
@@chenguavez347 Video is simple. I enable voice so I just say, "Hey Facebook....take a video." and it records a 60 sec video. Same goes for pics as well. You can also use voice for texts, phone calls, etc. Anything that you can dictate to Siri or Google is pretty much covered.
I am really enjoying my pair of Stories. I have polarized prescription sunglass lenses installed. They cut out on me once while walking in cold weather (-8 celsius). I'm looking forward to wearing them while riding my motorcycle in the spring/summer though I suspect the noise of the bike may be a bit of a problem.
Do you need your phone connected to them while taking the photos? Like can I leave my phone at home?
I Could see them being cool for Borosilicate glassblowing videos if the lenses were Ace Didymium . Not sure how heat resistant the frame is though. Would need special filters on the cameras as well to see through the flame.
This is my most anticipated product of the future
I can’t wait for fully integrated AR and VR smart glasses
Excellent balanced review. I wouldn't be able to handle the dreadful, "slideshow", low-framerate video and low res photos.
Idc what anyone says these are rly useful for a scientist like me sometimes youre doing something hands free in labs and cannot also simultaneously take videos for many reasons among them chemical spills. Having this to log everything you did seemlesly would be so frk useful. I miss google glass i wouldve bought that too had it not failed for some reason.
Future: I only meet people completely naked.
Super creepy
When will they make smart glasses that actually improve your vision? Like focussing near or far and zoom and macro, etc. Don't care about audio or VR or digital assistants or anything like that.
Really don’t like the fact that the images are stored by Facebook and not locally on your phone. Also no mention of storage capacity or did I miss that?
The disadvantage is it's not meant for people who wear optical glasses already, I change my shades lenses to fit my vision .. In addition this is meant for outdoors only! I would only buy a smart device that I can use anywhere, not limited as such ..
I'd rather just wait for apple to release their glasses
So you can pay 10x the price ... ok
@@MatthewRumble and have 10x better integration/compatibility
@@JL-dz8sj good thing I'm on Samsung
😬
The apple glasses will not have cameras though. Only lidars. Cameras are way more fun. Think about exposing all the creeps that are hitting on you!
I always think of these side releases as gadgets that failed to make it to the operative world and instead they made it public business for everyone. First drones, now this.. still waiting for explosive pens.
So true. The govt actually has a whole department whose job it is to militarize new patents and new everything that makes it to their desk. Their entire R&D department probably with tech innovators literally come up with things like this. We know that spy movies have been using pinhole cameras in everything from glasses to jewelry, etc. These glasses are not a new concept at all. They picked a popular company that they knew would price gouge but also have the money to provide premium quality. What they are gonna do is bring out this water downed version, make a ton of money then come out with upgraded versions having people basically buy the same item because they decided you could record longer or have better resolution. These companies aren’t stupid
I just had a Rayban storie’s ad before the video 💀
People rubbing their hands and licking their lips at how much they are going to cheat on exams lmaoo
anything facebook is creepy.
Now I gotta throw away my RayBans.
good thing I only ever bought cheap knockoffs in the first place
I wanna use a Snapchat filtered AR glasses.
'Till then, I'll be waiting.
If that glasses have an ability like an VR that will amazing, but if doesn't it really like an ordinary sun glasses that have a camera and audio, it much better to used your phone than buying that things with the same future or function of your phone.
The people who complained that Google glass was creepy didn’t know what they were looking at. And, that’s the only reason you would ask if this is creepy.
Google’s version allowed for video recording but only for a handful of minutes. When was the last time you were in a public place and did NOT see a bunch of phones out any one of which could be recording for a substantially longer amount of time.
The creepy thing is when people are recording without those around knowing it. It is already the case with smartphones to some degree. But these smart-glasses take it to another level.
In the distant future everything you say and think will be recorded and stored for eternity. Then it can be used against you at any time and with any motive.
@@jandersen6802 the first paragraph is what I already said. The second is your own weird little future fantasy and it has nothing to do with reality.
Imagine discussing politics, religion, or even healthcare with friends and minutes later having your glasses bricked by FB for 'wrong think'. Just a matter of time.
What's the battery life? Weight? Is this a review?
I made a prototype from some Chinese glasses with a camera and I have managed to control them without touching them or saying a single word.
What's more, you can look at me with them on and I'll give you $100 if you guess when l'm taking photos or videos of you.
I am doing some things to get a superior prototype and launch them on the market through crowdfunding, but I am going slowly since I have never launched any other product. The control system using cephalic-facial gestures can be incorporated into any glasses, including Ray-Ban | Goal. The sensors that I incorporate are 3 and they do not consume any additional energy to function, in addition, I also made a system for them to charge them while you use them without it being noticed and it has turned out as I expected. The glasses still look identical, you don't notice anything additional when you wear them.
Google glass failed because you couldn’t tell whether or not someone was recording or taking a picture of you. These kind of glasses are perfect for stalker creeps.
Ill wait for the 4.0 version those wayfers almost had me tho
Didn’t even think of the creepy factor , I was trynna ride motorcycles and dirt bikes
I just bought a pair in the flat grey clear lenses that transition in the sun. I paid $370+tax+$20 warranty offered thru sunglass hut to now feel like the biggest creep, only to realize I’m now probably being creeped on by Facebook even more and can kiss my privacy settings out the window. It’s whatever, at least I look good.. win some lose some haha
And they are actually at the same price as regural Ray Bans. Now we can see how overpriced are regural sun glasses
This is going to be cool tech when you can they development advanced and you can livestream with your sun glasses
Give it an year and the tech will improve for sure(And yeah, not to forget other brands will try to compete as well….)
I feel like Apple would’ve been a better pairing with Ray-Ban than Fakebook.
A little research and you would have found out that both the regular version and the prescription can come as sun, transitions or clear lenses. So they can be your everyday glasses
The end is near.
Serious question: what does the end mean in this context?
@C 😂😂😂
Not scared by spy glasses, just scared that they’re made by Facebook
This is perfect for stalkers, creeps, pedophiles... Etc. 😂
I can’t think of a gadget I’m less excited for. I don’t know why, the tech is sort of amazing, but I’m not really feeling the use cases where these are suddenly better than a simple smartphone. I also don’t like that everything is becoming more and more dependent on a good smartphone anyway. Wearables just don’t do much for me, yet at least.
Awe poor kids tough luck.

I love my iPad, my smartphone and my earbuds but if I wanted a watch I’d get a regular nice Michael Kors or Fossil and for sunglasses, I just got a pair of regular RayBan wayferers. i wonder if the sellers at sunglasshut and similar feel surprised when we don’t go looking for the Rayban stories.
and we just go for our typical regular sunnies.
I also making my coffee in my Nesspresso but that’s simple tech
So yeah I love tech and fashion but not together.
I mean what’s next a bottle perfume where you can check your messages ? Lol 😂
Fashion and tech should stay separately.
Imagine glasses with AR or VR for blind people capable of sensing and telling whats directly in front of you like keys, or take video if you fall to save what happened, or giving indications of where you are or where to go in closed spaces like malls or even connect to streetlights to safely cross them
It’s funny how many of you complain about privacy , companies spying , but yet you involved yourself with Tic Tok , Facebook , Instagram .
It was cool that you were using your watch to manage your camera. I like that feature, too!
Imagine a pair of glasses that requires you to have a facebook account 😳 thats a big no no for me same goes even for occlus headset since the facebook acquisition because they are all also requiring a facebook account 🙄 enough already 💩
