Where can I
get this: Go to Amazon
This has to be one of the most intuitive ideas I have ever
seen. The ability for anyone to view your photos as a video when the photo was
taken at that very moment. Yes…I am going to repeat what I said…the ability to
show people what you were experiencing at that very instance it was taken…..simply
mind blown. Lifeprint has turned your photos to a video using augmented
reality. Lifeprint is a portable printer that must be associated with a free
app (both for the IOS and Android) called Lifeprint also developed by the
company to turn a photo of your choice into a video.
Setting up the device is easy. Step 1: Open the back and
place the special printing paper, Step 2: Ensure that is charged, Step 3: Hold
the power button for 5 seconds and Step 6: Enable your Bluetooth on your mobile
device.
Once the setup is done go on the Lifeprint app. The app
allows you to link to social media websites such as Twitter, Facebook and
Instagram so that you can access any of your photos on those websites and of course
the photos that are stored locally on your device. Did I mention that Lifeprint
is actually a social media application also….so you can share your videos to
your friends who have the Lifeprint app. When you have selected your video, you
can trim it to 10-15 seconds, then choose a frame within the video and that is
what the picture will print out as. Simply select print and that’s it. The print
takes less than 30 seconds to process….now select the hyperphoto option on the
app and there you go….you have now travel back in time to re-experience a
moment in your past.
So I am sure you are going to ask…so where do I put the ink
in the printer…..haha. Believe it or not this is absolutely inkless. It uses
heat on the paper to produce colour for the photo. Now you can edit the picture
using filters on the app before your print and the quality of the photo is
pretty decent. The slight drawback if any is that it only comes with ten paper
sheet...which means you will have to purchase more paper….and actually the
paper is not even expensive. You can get 50 pages for $28.00 which works out to
be around $0.50 per paper. Trust me if you are purchasing a Lifeprint device …you
might as well buy a box of Lifeprint phot paper because the tons of excitement
you are going to have with this…..will be short-lived by only 10 pages…(sad
face).
The major drawback is phone compatibility. Sorry for my low
end phone users but the Lifeprint are compatible with high end mobile devices…such
as Samsung Galaxy S6 and higher models, iPhone6 and higher models, HTC 10 and
higher models, LG G5, Google Pixel and Sony Xperia XZ.
For that 15 seconds rewind in time to re live an experience
and to share your experience with others…this gadget gets a 5/5 star rating!
