Sony's vision of our connected future is vague and uninspired
In addition to a new phone line, Sony also laid out its grand vision for the future of its Xperia line. Three concepts were on display. And they were all a little underwhelming.
Sony is working on a lifelog camera and Amazon Echo rival
Sony's in Spain to announce its new range of Xperia X phones, but that's not the only gear it's showing off this week. The firm is revealing three "product concepts" for gets that it could release in the future, depending on how we all react. The only issue that we can see is that at least two of the three products are vaguely reminiscent of stuff that's already out on the market. Take the Xperia Eye, a wide-angle lens camera that you can hang from your neck and looks pretty much like Autographer's life-logging camera. Unlike its rivals, however, the Eye is packing Sony's fancy image sensors and a 360-degree spherical lens. Sony is promising that it'll be smart enough to know when to take a shot (from your voice and other people's facial expressions) so you don't have to think about using it.Wait... didn't we already see this thing two years ago?
