I wonder what Lemmings are thinking of this device. I admire the innovation but just don’t see how this would be used in practice outside of memes.

    This looks even scarier than that TV/camera device by Facebook.

    It’s powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and uses a camera, depth, and motion sensors to track and record its surroundings. It has a built-in speaker, which Humane calls a “personic speaker,” and can connect to Bluetooth headphones.

    Hell no. If a friend starts wearing a subscription-based body cam connected to “AI”, I’m going to cut them out of my life.

    It also sounds so stupid as a concept. Why would I use this instead of a phone camera? The laser display sounds like a much worse equivalent to a tiny smartwatch screen. The only use case might be when doing sports/activities, but we’d need a much more robust device for that (and much faster response times for it to be useful)
