Motivation

Imagine trying to capture your child's first steps. With traditional cameras, you're very likely to miss a moment with your camera focusing, or getting to your camera app on your smartphone. Imagine trying to get a photo of your friends skiing down the hill, and you spend minutes preparing for the bleak opportunity you have to get that photo.


With Snap, you're ready to catch the moment, the moment you put on your gloves.

Competition

Take Frame

  • Conceptual Design of a device that splits into two to create an image inside the frame
  • Frame could carry unnecessary weight and one part seems to be uneffective without the other
  • This is a conceptual design

Air Clicker

  • Conceptual Design of two rings that create a camera, with camera and video mode
  • This is a conceptual design, so many technical logistics missing, for example
    1. Image movement to computer
    2. Architecture
    3. Storage of images (and if necessary) communication over WiFi
    4. Charging
