At Explore Engage we believe in placing user experience at the highest possible levels.When progressing technology to a place of more rewarding and natural user experience we have been challenged by reliability, scale and technology parameters.

iPhone smartphone Grocery applicationWhat is encouraging is that we have met a tipping point where Apples iPhone for instance has shown that the power of brand love can overcome flaws in technology.  Some of us have had unfortunate experiences with temperamental iPhones devices and apps, however generally these devices are still providing great entertainment and utility and are making enormous impact on reducing click barriers, clunky menu options and machine driven interfaces.

Anecdotes of  children as young as two working out the iPhone operations with stretch, pinch, tap, swipe, flick, press etc.  are becoming more common place. Ironically this same evolution of a more natural gesture driven human computer interface can allow the less tech savvy to navigate with much less apprehension. That in itself could potentially unlock various life changing intelligence and establish new relationships. One step further than the iPhone, Microsoft Kinect now moves the power of natural gestures from the finger and hands and brings it to the whole body. These are exciting times.

So when the opportunity arose to assist Albert Hwang aka Phedhex, with his Kickstarter request, we jumped at it.

Looking forward to seeing the third part of the series come together.

We see these kind of concepts blending in to our companies overall vision for progress and evolution of augmented reality consumption from web, mobile and to head mounted displays.
