In what has become holiday tradition, I was again a guest on the WCCO Sunday Morning news program with Esme Murphy to talk about tech gifts for the holidays.
Esme was most fascinated by Google Cardboard, the simple virtual-reality goggles that serve as holders for a smartphone in order to view VR videos and photos.
Esme during the segment checked out a virtual-reality photo of the Pioneer Press’ new digs. I used Google’s new Cardboard Camera app to take the photo (which I unfortunately cannot share because the app does not yet have a sharing feature).
Here are all the tech products on display during today’s segment:
- Acer UTO computer display. $249.99
