Amazon patented augmented reality mirror

In recent years, virtual and augmented reality ceased to be something unimaginable and fantastic and have become things that we easily can already present in our lives. But if someone still thinks that such products can be used only in the field of interactive entertainment, the company Amazon hurry to dissuade you of that, because its experts recently patented smart AR-mirror.

The main purpose of this invention is to provide help in choosing clothes. Once a person chooses outfit from a catalog of things, smart electronics for sure, "wear" it directly to the future owner. In this case, the clothes will not look unnatural, and would simulate not only the appearance of clothing, but also its physical properties. But that's not all: the smart mirror can provide the owner of the alternatives and the background lighting, so that users are able to see how the clothes will look like in different conditions. One might think that such an invention would be useless, but its development is responsible Amazon, which the authors have realized is not a new idea. Moreover, recently the company has developed a smart camera that can pick up a person's clothing, hairstyle or makeup, so that the necessary framework is available from Amazon. And when you consider the fact that many clothing stores are trying to get more and more competition in various aspects, we can not rule out the possibility that any large sales network for the production of clothing take this technology on board.
