What is
Front is an augmented reality glassware that works by immersing the user in a computer-generated environment. The glasses have built-in screens and sensors that track the user's head movements, allowing them to look around the augmented space as if it were real.
The augmented environment is created using specialized software, which can be tailored to the user's specific needs, such as architectural design or industrial design.
This allows designers to visualize their creations in a realistic and interactive way, improving the design process and facilitating collaboration with other team members.

Next Steps
Conduct a user testing with 20 potential target users.
Design never gets DONE, I will like to develop and add more functionality of the product to truly enhance the experience.
It would be interesting and fun to think more about the business strategy aspects to sell and convince this product in the real industry.
Take away
This project will be definitely one of the project that I deeply enjoyed creating it. This project led me to explore more of the 3 Dimensional rendering process and it was fascinated to experience how this skill helps me and the viewer to envision the idea that was only inside my mind. Eventually, this project helped me with my visualizing skills.
