From the article I've learnt that it's voice controlled. If it could be just a peripheral for a phone that catches hand gestures and controls multimedia, it may be a fun thing for a week, and probably a new niche way of using and controlling devices. With phone-enabled home assistant app - an integration with it too. And decoding sign language as an obvious bonus and a social value point.
Honestly, I could've bought it if it was that and also customizable with free gesture recording and assigning to commands.
It has a secondary interaction interface that's novel - if you hold your hand at the right position, it projects data or controls into your palm which can then be navigated by tilting your hand and "clicking" with a finger tap gesture. This interface is also more private, and used for entering your pin to unlock the device, but can be used for other interactions like viewing long form responses to voice prompts where you can scroll through the data rather than trying to absorb everything as it's spoken (or if you don't want to have a spoken reply).
It's an interesting concept, but I tend to agree with the user you replied to in that this is a solution in search of a problem.
I think the creators are ex Apple employees.
I wonder how I missed that. And I double your support for OP.
It’s voice controlled, but also you have to tap it to start up an interaction. Maybe there’s a wake word I didn’t see in any of the reviews I watched, but I don’t know.
So in that regard, it’s less easy to use than saying “Siri, …” to your watch or phone.
