If Snap\u2019s Spectacles<\/a> are really about\u00a0sharing your life with the world, we need a\u00a0solution for capturing the majority of our lives that occur boxed inside buildings. This solution could come in the form of replacement lenses or in the form of an entirely new device.<\/p>\n Niche lens manufacturer\u00a0Rochester Optical <\/a>gave us the first one\u00a0today with replacement lenses for\u00a0Spectacles that come in\u00a0clear optical, sun and photochromic versions. Sure, this is good news for people who\u00a0can\u2019t wear sunglasses without prescription lenses, but it also means Spectacles can now\u00a0be used indoors.\u00a0Lucky Spectacles owners can send their glasses in to be cut and upgraded to any prescription strength (including none at all).<\/p>\n From the ascetics of the plating on that hipster\u00a0dinner you ordered to the smiles on the faces of your family meeting you at the airport after a long time apart, many moments are missed for the sheer fact you would look like an idiot wearing tinted\u00a0Spectacles inside a fancy restaurant or busy airport. This is not to mention the fact that\u00a0capturing video with a smartphone is cumbersome and often impolite.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, the pricing on the custom alterations put the changes out of reach for most people.<\/p>\n Even regardless of\u00a0price, the average consumer is not going to take the time to send their new glasses in to be altered. What we really need is an integrated solution for capturing video indoors.<\/p>\n This could come in the form of something like Glide\u2019s smartwatch band<\/a>\u00a0that features two cameras, but it could also just be refined indoor glasses without\u00a0tint. Its not\u00a0necessary that Snap or any other company sell millions of units either. At this point,\u00a0any product in this category is niche, but I can think of more than one instance where a camera on an ordinary pair of (cool) glasses could come in handy.<\/p>\n It\u2019s true that sunglasses have an element of je ne sais quoi that prescription glasses will never have. It also makes sense that Snap\u2019s\u00a0first\u00a0cameras were\u00a0integrated into sunglasses to stay far away from\u00a0the branding disaster that was Google Glass<\/a>.\u00a0But there remains an opportunity to\u00a0help people capture their indoor lives handsfree.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Featured Image: Bryce Durbin<\/small><\/p>\n Article source: http:\/\/feedproxy.google.com\/~r\/techcrunch\/social\/~3\/2pKI9UCtPgA\/<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If Snap\u2019s Spectacles are really about\u00a0sharing your life with the world, we need a\u00a0solution for capturing the majority of our lives that occur boxed inside buildings.
