(ThyBlackMan.com) Finally, Intel smart glasses Vaunt have proved that you can wear technology without looking goofy. Intel’s smart eyewear is all set to dominate the market and it truly justifies the term ‘smart’ with its design, technology, and possibilities.
Intel has always been a trusted name in making PC components. Whether it’s CPU or GPU, the “Intel Inside” factor works like a charm. But in order to capture the market with Vaunt, the first thing Intel will have to do is to make direct connections with consumers. The company has always worked with computer electronics brands. If Vaunt gets acquired by some major brand or Intel creates a new brand for the product, the device the Vaunt smart glasses can do a lot better.
Just like many other companies, Intel announced its product in a very different way but the idea could backfire. The company allowed only one journalist to review the product that too in the company’s favorable conditions. Since it’s just a prototype, we don’t expect Intel to put a prototype of glasses at any tech show, but many tech 
enthusiasts who know about the augmented reality technology have criticised this move by saying that Intel smartly showcased its product under the right environment and lighting. The second thing Intel needs to do is to let critics share their views on its product.
Intel’s Vaunt smart glasses are offering basic features. They don’t look ugly and this is one of the biggest reasons why people are loving them. The form factor is absolutely what everyone was expecting from smart eyeglass makers, but when it comes to functionality, Vaunt lacks many key features and appears to be a very basic set of smart glasses. No one can deny the fact that Intel introduced the product in a way that nobody has a clear idea of its functionality. We don’t know what its technical shortcomings are. If Intel shares technical details about its products it will not only let people understand what the brand has to offer, but the company should also focus on more variants so that consumers and developers can easily adopt the right product for their needs.
The fourth step Intel might (and should) consider is taking the product to different areas of utilization. Through the review, Intel has made sure conveying the message about different conditions Vaunt can be useful in. The company clearly said that the product can be used in many ways and in many places, for example checking messages, emails and managing tasks given to voice assistants like Alexa. But the company failed to make any strong point to attract consumers. It seems like Intel developed the glasses just because they could and the company is still finding ways to make it a part of daily life.
In the Intel smart glasses review, we saw that the company smartly conveyed the message that the glasses will need a medium (a smartphone or a smartwatch) to function. It clearly means that the device won’t work as a stand-alone product and you will need to keep it connected to other devices in order to receive updates. Why so many people hate smartwatches because most of these wearables rely on your smartphone. You can’t just go out for a walk and leave your phone at home. That’s annoying and even if you don’t feel like carrying your smartphone, you have to do that in order to keep track of updates and activities. Products like Apple Watch and many other smartwatches are now becoming better by adopting stand-alone solutions. By limiting the need for smartphone dependence, these wearables are being appreciated by more people.
Now when people want to keep their phones away, Intel will likely force them to carry their phone in order to get updates on the Vaunt glasses. If the company can bring a truly independent device, it can dominate the augmented reality wearables market.
The sixth and the most important point is convincing people about the safety. We know that the device uses a laser which is directly in contact with its user’s eyeballs, building that confidence among people is not going to be easy for Intel. One more thing Intel needs to pay attention to is delivering cutting edge technology.
Aesthetically, Intel smart glasses are beautiful and attractive, but when the company says this technology can replace the need for smartphones without putting users into any socially awkward situations, the technology Intel is using in Vaunt must support these words. The device has potential, but at the same time, it should solve the real world problems.
