I could see Apple buying it. The form factor makes sense, it’s the fact that it relies on AI and has its own cell connection are the main issues. If I could tap it and have Siri take dictation or take a picture of something to get more information it would be pretty neat.
Why on earth would apple buy this shitty android device? And feature wise, they can just make the airpods into an AI device paired with your phone or watch.
Does it though? Having it pull down your shirt, having to rely on projecting a GUI on your hand, and being unable to hear it in loud environments all seem like pretty strong limitations of the form factor
I’d drop the projector interface, as cool as it is, since you have a phone for that. Maybe make it a pendant as well as a pin.
Apple’s got a lot of experience with using tiny speakers in loud places, so I bet they could figure out something maybe using directional microphones. Plus, again, you’ve got the phone so you can use the headphones.

Apple already have the perfect form factor, it’s called a phone.
Or, if you want something smaller, they have a watch.
Or if you want something bigger they have glasses.
What if I don’t wear a watch?
Then you’ll have to look elsewhere when you want to know what time it is.

I don’t need any hardware that does something my phone already does.
I don’t understand this reverse consolidation these companies think people want.
