Ug - can I buy a sorta not computer thing from Lenovo?
-
Lenovo has released a Hololense like game that uses your phone.
-
That does look pretty sweet...
I was wondering the same about the newer Motorola phones made since they partnered up with Lenovo. Look like decent devices, but ewwww, they say "powered by Lenovo".
-
Damnit.. Lenovo..
Why Disney? You already know most everything about your users.
-
BUt this is exactly where I see the hololense going for gaming if MS ever gets off their ass.
-
I used one of these already (or something like it) a co-worker brought it in for the Extra-Life event that we ran a few weeks ago.

Was it maybe a real Hololense?

Mighta been, I was kind of drunk while using it so I don't recall exactly.

Don't do it. I got my Motorola G4+ just after the aquisition, and it has odd issues. Like suddenly using 500MB of data in a matter of hours, no additional programs running. Can't convince me I'm not being spied on without my consent.

Sure, if you want them staring into your soul and stealing your thoughts while you think you are playing a video game...
Honestly, once a company pulls a "Lenovo", I won't support them anymore.

No it was more "full" if that makes sense for the screen design and what not. It wasn't the Sun Ray glasses look shown there.

@JaredBusch we were acutally playing a Jedi and light saber game where we had to kill the storm troopers.
It was pretty cool.
-
It comes with the Millenium Falcon Battle Chess game? And Lightsaber fighting? If there was ever a reason to abandon principles(not buying Lenovo), it is those 2 things.
Wow, that is stuff i dreamt about.

See, the thing with AR, is that you'll be learning to get used to seeing things that aren't really there... that can't be good!

Other pictures of this thing definitely look like Rey's googles from EP 7

I think I'm going to break the embargo and buy it.
-
I might send in a PO request to my boss, then technically i wont be buying it.

The power of the dark side is too strong for this one.

Them's some strong ties to the force if you get your company to buy this for you.

See, the thing with AR, is that you'll be learning to get used to seeing things that aren't really there... that can't be good!
I'm ok with it. AR had the potential to make life so much easier/better... not having to remember people's names is going to be the best use of this technology for me.

Here here - they ever get this into contact lenses or an implant that just uses the optic nerve .. definitely cool thinking.. if not freaky as hell because of horrible we humans are at making secure technology.

and here I never thought I'd ever buy a Lenovo product. I'm actually mad

You have watched Black Mirror, right? The true potential horror lies not in the security but in the fact the technology is being used by humans.

I've seen one or two episodes - the like status one was just horrible. Then The Orville did a parody of it, damn.. it is a scary thought!

I have yet to see a truly bad Black Mirror episode. They are delightfully dystopian.

I meant a horrible life - not a horrible episode. I wouldn't want to live in that world - mainly because I'm an asshole a few steps below JB level, but an asshole just the same.
