Fashion industry is evolving at unprecedented level because of changing psychographics trends. People are continuously looking for fashion accessories that’ll change their overall outlook. Social media has made us more conscious about ourselves, as we are constantly looking for accessories that’ll enhance our personality and make us look cool. Snapchat, which is a multimedia messaging app used globally is all set to put foot in the hardware industry and they do so by introducing the Snapchat Spectacle about three years ago which is their take on wearable computing. Their efforts go in vain, when the first two versions of the spectacles didn’t work out according to the expectations. Many users believe that it is an expensive toy with average features.



Snapchat is all set to change the perception of people by introducing their all new Spectacles 3 which is one step forward from taking pictures and making videos simultaneously uploading them on Snapchat, as your snaps. It basically changes the way we see world around us by incorporating animations in real time.They believe that it will have huge impact on fashion forward and creative audience. In terms of their users on social media platform, if they find some connection between the Spectacles 3 and mobile app which provide numerous playful augmented reality features. I think that’ll work, as it enables me to put filters in real time through my glasses on anything I want, whether on people, locations and several other experiences.


Spectacles is very fashion forward as it has slick design with aluminum body, two cameras with light buffers which looks quite cool. This time around Spectacles has taken a huge leap forward introducing filters that primarily integrate the real world with snaps. You can put animations in real time videos which is quite amazing and playful at the same time. You can simply connect the Spectacles with your phone by scanning the QR code.The second camera on the Spectacles is used to take 3D photographs in real time. These photographs can be viewed through the Spectacles cardboard which also remind us about the view through toy camera which is fascinating.

Although, Spectacle 3 stills needs a lot of development in term of software because it doesn’t have many extensive features like Apple and Microsoft does have on their product. It has huge potential in terms of product of future, as our lives are getting immersed with artificial experiences.
