I think the idea is super cool, and the execution works very well ! Definitely much better than what I anticipated.
The first thing that jumped to my mind is not that I can use it from 6ft away, but mostly that it can be used to control things even if I don't have the conf call window I'm in in the foreground (which happens to me quite a lot).
Some ideas I had while playing with it :
- Some sound feedback would be nice, for example a little bip when switching from value to value in a menu : in the context of not having the call in the foreground, it allows to make sure that the gesture is registered.
- Swipe gestures could be a nice addition, for example a swipe up or down to mute/unmute the mic
- I'm overall less convinced by the "control by phone" flow
- It's surprising for the welcome video to be without sound : I initially thought my headphones where not connected or something. Overall, I think the welcome video present the functionalities very well and goes straight to the point, which is very appreciable ! But it feels a bit rough around the edges.
- A bit of smoothing when selecting would make the experience a bit better : I don't want to know that my fingers are shaking this much !
But in any case, congratulation on the product, it's really really cool !
- cody_otoro 5y ago> it can be used to control things even if I don't have the conf call window I'm in in the foreground Just to clarify, by “foreground” do you mean: 1) a split screen scenario where the video conferencing window is visible but not in-focus? or 2) the video conference window is under another window / not the active tab and therefore not visible? (1) is actually something I never registered that actually makes our platform valuable even for traditional conferencing so thanks for concretizing that! > I'm overall less convinced by the "control by phone" flow This is fascinating. We actually built the phone pairing feature because of some earlier feedback that the hand tracking features would be too difficult for average consumers to use. Could you possibly elaborate on why you’re less convinced by the phone pairing feature? As an engineer at heart, I’m looking for any reason to keep iterating on the cool hand tracking features :) All your other ideas are great! Will definitely add them to our todo list
