The Problem Solved
Traditional video tools (like Zoom or FaceTime) force users to hold their smartphone with one hand while trying to perform complex physical tasks (e.g. cooking a delicate sauce, repairing vintage audio equipment, assembling woodwork, playing piano). The resulting camera angle is shaky, misaligned, and awkward. Mentors cannot accurately see what the user is doing, leading to frustration and dropped sessions.
The BuzzNow Solution
Buzznow : Live mentoring unlocks a true hands-free "see-what-I-see" perspective by combining smart glasses technology (Ray-Ban Meta via DAT SDK) with low-latency WebRTC streaming. The user keeps both hands entirely free to work while the expert views their exact field of vision in high-definition video, providing real-time voice instructions and visual cues.
