Valentin's idea has a lot of interesting components to it. The ability to stitch together a few different physical interfaces ad hoc using the camera + smartphone combination is particularly brilliant. I like where his head's at: integrating a bunch of discrete IoT devices should be simple, simple, simple.
My main beef? Frankly, it's those stickers that the camera needs to recognize the device. Ugly, ugly, ugly.
- valentin_heun 11y agoComputers have been huge (ugly?) machines before now they are sexy and small. Screens have been heavy, now its all in your pocket. All of it has been in the Marked and sold wonderfully. Visual Markers (Stickers) for Augmented Reality are a design challenge that can lead to new looks. Its Natural Feature tracking, so everything can be a "sticker". This can actually help companies to differentiate from each other. Its something new to think about. I would not say that a radio with just a touch screen is particular beautiful, but it sells too. ;-) Anyhow, one thing is sure we will get rid of the marker. There is so much technological development going on in that field.
- cushychicken 11y agoThanks for answering! I really like the comparison to a "digital screwdriver". I think way too many companies set the setup bar for their IoT devices way too high. If you can make it as easy as Reality Editor, you should!
