They don't really look "hidden" tbqh, the lenses are quite obvious.
I'm wondering if these could be useful to me as a prosopagnostic.
Try standing 10 ft / 3m away, in a crowd, and not actually expecting anybody to have them. Would you notice?
Out of the loop, do you need a facebook/meta account (if yes, how much info they requested) to use the glasses ?
On the one hand I can't remember the many people I see at work and would love heads-up display saying names, birthdays and reminding me what we spoke about.
On the other hand I don't like cameras recording my socially embarrassing actions in the first place, let alone tell people who I am. Like hell I want Zuck to know what stupid shit I said 4 years ago to that one person I won't see ever again.
Idk, I assume I'm being watched via CCTV at least wherever I go nowadays. This may be literally in your face, but still... these devices will become invisible and ubiquitous.
They should have used a photo from a webcam or old phone (or a noise filter) to better represent the nighttime quality of the tiny lenses. This one seems to have real DSLR depth of field. The interface is obviously fake, too. As a journalist, I would go the extra mile to take (or license) a shitty picture/video frame with motion blur (and no good-looking subject) and edit it into the supplied promotional material rather than plainly repost that obviously fake shit.
hidden camera prank videos are about to become a lot more rampant I think.
Ok, but why?
Like, why??
I'd like to run a test on these executives, put everyone with a camera pointing at them whenever they step outside let's see how long it will take to them hate their own proposal.
