[Introduction - Background]

Tail is lucky to play through Lei Feng this time one hundred , joined Lenovo NBD Organizational new glass The public test of smart glasses was the first time to experience the cool smart glasses in China. Here, thanks to Lei Feng.com and Lenovo NBD Opportunities given by the community.

From the current perspective, smart glasses are wearable smart devices with high technology content, and they are also products with a long way to go. In order to fulfill the rare responsibility of public beta, Tail summarized the experience for the first time with three articles, namely, unpacking guide, experience and suggestion. This is the experience part of the three articles. If you need to view the product details and what you think needs to be improved, please go directly to the end of the article and click the link to view.

To make it clear, Tail is just a fan of cutting-edge digital technology, without professional optics or development technology. Therefore, the starting point and focus of this article are for ordinary users to use new glass By the way, I will introduce the entire operating system, and will not make in-depth technical discussions. After all, ordinary users generally don't care about technical issues. What do they care about? What can I do? How does it work?

Of course, experience related design and hardware new glass The overall parameters of are listed below, which is more convenient for the audience to read and understand. ▼

[How about the first start experience?]

new glass As a tall wearable intelligent device, smart glasses are also different from other products when they are used for the first time. They need to be "activated" twice. The first activation is to "charge activation" before starting the machine to remove the transportation mode; The second activation is "account activation" when networking, probably scanning the QR code to download the glasses steward APP , after registering and logging in, connect WiFi , generate the activation QR code, and then scan the glasses to activate the device. After two activations, the cool journey begins. ▼

Experience review : Transport mode is very common in cars. The purpose of using transport mode in digital products should also be to save power and prevent battery loss NBD The details are well considered. In the process of account activation, although it is necessary to switch back and forth between the phone and the glasses for several times new glass There are image and text prompts throughout the whole process APP There are also short videos, which are not complicated, not to mention the excitement of first acquaintance. However, the glasses steward APP To optimize mobile phone adaptation, there is a problem that the application interface does not fit the screen size in the registration procedure.

[Mobile terminal APP What is the interactive experience of?]

As can be seen from the front, new glass With the glasses steward on the mobile phone APP There are countless relationships between them. They are connected by Bluetooth APP You can query the status of glasses Wifi Connection, Bluetooth connection and other contents will be automatically uploaded to glasses after adding contacts on the contact page, and you can send SMS messages. ▼

In the setting interface, you can change your personal information settings. At the same time, you can bind Baidu Cloud Disk and Weibo, so that new glass The captured images and videos can be synchronously updated to Baidu Cloud Disk, or shared directly on Weibo. The beautiful things of solo music are not as good as those of all music. ▼

In fact, the more important subsequent third-party applications are also downloaded and installed through the glasses steward. Unfortunately, no third-party application testing has been released during the public beta.

Experience review : It can be said that the glasses steward APP namely new glass The "rear base" of APP The interface beautification, function improvement, content resources and other aspects of are not perfect, and we hope that they can be enriched and improved as soon as possible in the future.

[What is the wearing experience of glasses for myopia and non myopia?]

As we all know, the ancestor of smart glasses Google Glass Not very friendly to myopia. Therefore, from this perspective, Lenovo NBD new glass With the split design, users can adapt their own frames for "myopia" without having to adapt the frames for myopia at a high cost Google Advanced place.

one If it is "myopic", it needs two steps. The first step is to select appropriate clips according to the different width and thickness of your eyeglass frame and insert them into the eyeglass slot; The second step is to add the clip to the appropriate position of the glasses leg. ▼

Experience review : The design concept is very good, but unfortunately, because new glass The material selection of the buckle of the open test machine is too soft, and the buckle is not forced due to the force direction. In addition, the connection between the two should bear various body movement pressures, and there are click, slide and other gesture actions on the touch pad. In the actual experience, the prism of glasses is always crooked, and it is easy to fall out of the card slot. The suggestions for improvement will be elaborated in detail in the suggestions and assumptions. For better experience, the tail has to be equipped with contact lenses, and the following traditional connection method of original lens frame is adopted.

two If it is not "myopic", use the original lens frame attached with the machine. It only takes one step to check the clip of the attached lens frame new glass The glasses are stuck in the slot. ▼

Experience review : The connection of the original lens frame is very stable. No matter you are doing gesture operation or strenuous exercise, you should never worry about it new glass This connection mode is strongly recommended for the tragedy of falling off. Of course, if the nasal support can be replaced or adjusted again, it will be more perfect.

【 new glass What is the visual experience of prism?]

Experience review : According to new glass Officially, the prism's vision is twenty Degree, the display effect is equivalent to two rice Extraneous twenty-five inch Display, of course, the resolution is 800*480 . This is just a rational data analysis. In fact, the tail is worn for the first time new glass When there is such a transparent screen hanging in front of my eyes, as well as numbers and images, I always feel that the brain suddenly has no clear sense of distance. However, after wearing it for a period of time, the tail finds the best visual position. It is better to push the glasses slightly upward so that the eyes can see the image a little upward. It can be adapted quickly new glass The exists of. The resolution is not large, but the screen is also small. Card style interaction, high contrast text, and information can be quickly and intuitively understood. The content of the screen is very clear indoors, but it is not easy to see it in the direction of sunshine outdoors. Since there is an ambient light sensor, it is best to quickly develop firmware that supports automatic adjustment of screen brightness.

[How about the wearing experience of the neck seat in the hot summer?]

Since the split design is adopted, the main board and battery are both designed on the neck seat, and the neck seat is close to the neck skin. Wearing comfort and heat dissipation are unavoidable topics. If the clothes with high collars are worn, the neck seat is not obvious. ▼

The following figure shows the use of tail one After 24 hours, the temperature difference between the front and back of the neck seat tested is nearly two degrees, and the heat dissipation material close to the skin still has some effect. ▼

Experience review : A fat person has a thick neck. new glass Although the size of the neck seat can be adjusted, the adjustable size is limited, and the preset width is not wide. I feel that the neck is slightly pinched, and the connecting wire between the glasses and the neck seat is not long. When the left and right turning amplitude is large, the glasses are always pulled. new glass During use, I feel that the temperature of the neck seat increases relatively quickly. In summer, I can only say that it is acceptable. In winter, I should be very comfortable and bring my own warm scarf.

[How about the experience of the glasses end system?]

The system experience of glasses desktop will involve many aspects. Tail thinks that it mainly focuses on smoothness, interactive control, basic function realization, extended application, and endurance.

one , fluency, new glass 's glasses desktop is based on Android 4.2.2 It is displayed in card units. processor 1.2Ghz Dual core, 16G Storage space of 1G The smoothness of such hardware configuration in card interaction is absolutely guaranteed. The following is the display effect of some pages. ▼

Experience review : The overall smoothness of the page switching of the card system may cause occasional stuttering, which should be the problem of firmware update and optimization.

two In terms of interactive control, new glass There are two interaction modes: voice and touch pad. Phonically, new glass Simple preset operation commands can be recognized. At the same time, if a third-party application is installed, you can record your own voice as the startup command, which is good for voice expansion prospects. ▼

On touch control, gesture commands are made on the touch control panel, new glass Take appropriate action. In general, there are four gesture operations: click the touch pad as a choice; Swipe forward to flip the screen to the right, backward to flip to the left, and downward to return. ▼

Experience review : Because it is in the public beta period, the firmware is constantly upgrading, one The voice is accurate and sensitive in the firmware version one point one In firmware, voice recognition occasionally fails, which can be solved after optimization. Voice operation really liberates my hands. I prefer touch interaction, which is simple and direct. After all, it's strange to talk to myself in a place with many people.

three In terms of the realization of basic functions, new glass Firmware upgrade to one point one After version, relative one In version, video call is added and navigation function is cancelled because the module is being adjusted. Before upgrading, Tail experienced the navigation in front of her. It has two display modes: ordinary and head up. It feels a bit strange. If you add pedestrian navigation after the adjustment is completed, Mom won't have to worry about getting lost when going out for a stroll. ▼

Taking photos and video recording are basic functions. After taking photos, you can directly share, collect, delete, and record videos by default ten Seconds, during which you can record at will by sliding back and forth on the touch pad, and you can select at most 1080P The following are the functions of photography and video recording and the demonstration of samples. ▼

new glass You can also send SMS messages if you are in the mobile phone butler APP Has added contacts to. Or when you are bored, you can chat with me. These are all due to network connection and voice operation. ▼

Experiential narration : From the perspective of photo samples, the perspective of the photo is higher than that of the actual glasses. The biggest problem is that the photo is easily overexposed, which needs to be optimized in the next step; The biggest maladjustment is that the capture mode is adopted, and there is no shooting process, so process design optimization is still needed. The camera mode and auto focus function are more practical and have good effect, especially can record some first person video topics, such as the moment of football shooting and the moment of basketball shooting. Of course, it's a pity that Teacher Chen didn't use this artifact····

four , expansion of applications and endurance, Experience review : Because it is a public beta machine, the official has not released third-party applications, but there is a god doing it APP Transplantation is very expected. From the time of use, after all, it is impossible to carry new glass , so 1340mAh The battery capacity is enough for me to use for one day.

[Conclusion]

OK ， association NBD new glass That's all for the experience of smart glasses. In summary, like the title of an article, smart glasses attract both your own eyes and the eyes of onlookers. Of course, some of the public beta products are still not perfect, and there are many areas that need to be improved. Next, the tail will summarize the suggestions and comments on hardware, software and imagination in combination with experience.
