Lenovo Smart Clock
with Google Assistant
We’re no strangers to interactive screens in the home,
between Facebook Portals and Amazon Echos and Google
Hubs. The beauty of Lenovo’s new Smart Clock, then,
is its simplicity. It won’t video conference or stream TV,
but it covers all the other bedside bases: it tells times,
charges phones, and gently wakes you up with a clock
face that gradually brightens before your alarm goes off.
By connecting it to Google Assistant, you can instruct it
to do a whole lot more. Small and stylish with
its heather gray case, it’s an unobtrusive and
helpful addition.
Nreal Light Mixed
Reality Glasses
Mixed reality glasses can be used to take what
you’re seeing of the real world and overlay
it with virtual content. At CES 2019, Nreal,
a Chinese start-up, showed off a pair that
almostlooks like normal glasses you could
wear on the street. Hey, it’s a step in the right
direction. Nreal’s ready-to-wear Light glasses
are designed to give wearers
an immersive experience with
spatial sound, voice control, and
a widescreen display at 1080p—
without the bulky headset. If you’re
into mixing realities, stay tuned for
more information.
