What is Spectacles and How it Works?
Spectacles is the smart Sunglasses from Snapchat (rebranded as Snap Inc.). Spectacles, the first hardware product from Snap Inc., initially appear to be a normal pair of sunglasses. Spectacles has an inbuilt camera that uses a 115-degree-angle lens wider than the smartphone’s camera and records the video in circular view just like human vision.
When you wear the Spectacles and you see something worth recording, tap a button near the hinge and it records up to 10 seconds of video. Each tap of the button records another clip. As you record your hands are free to focus on the video. Spectacles videos syncs wirelessly to a smartphone, making it easy to share.
