[Abstract] In addition to aesthetic reasons, he believes that the round panel can provide users with a more perfect experience. The Moto 360 will be the first smart watch to carry Google's Android Wear operating system, the BI Chinese station reported March 20. But in the last 24 hours, it's not just the new operating system that attracts people's attention. The smart watch, developed by Motorola, will break the traditional square-panel design (Pebble and Samsung's smart watches are all square). The company says the round panel is one of the selling points of the Moto 360 smart watch. In a question-and-answer session at the Google Hangout Congress in Wednesday, Jim Wicks, Motorola's design director, stressed the importance of using a round face plate instead of a square panel. In addition to aesthetic reasons, Mrs. that the round panel can provide users with a more perfect experience. Mrs. said that if the watch's face plate is round, then the user's vision will naturally be attracted to the center of the display. And, no matter how the watch rotates, its display can always be consistent with the wearer's eye, making it easier for them to read the contents of the display. The display of a square smart watch, in contrast to the wearer's gaze, sometimes seems askew. Also, the round dial design is said to be more comfortable to wear. Mrs. said the same screen size of a square watch, it's a few horns may poke your wrist. "People need to understand that if you wear a square watch, you may feel a little uncomfortable." "He said in an interview. Mrs. said Motorola had considered a square smart watch, but later felt that the round dial was more appealing. Specifically, the square dial lacked the "wow" thing, and he and his team felt that the round dial would do just that. Moto 360 is not the first smart watch to support a round dial design. For example, the Martian notifier smart watch looks like a traditional disc watch, but it can connect to your smartphone and send you reminders. When you receive a notification, your watch makes a buzzing noise. However, it does not run Android Wear, and its screen is small enough to show some simple information. Motorola will work with LG and other companies to become the first Google partners to launch a smart watch based on the Android Wear. The Android Wear, launched in Tuesday, is indeed, as its name shows, an extension of Google's mobile operating system on smart watches. Moto 360 is due to be launched this summer. Like other smart watches based on Android Wear, it will also show weather information, quiz scores, receive text messages, and other features. We need to wait until Moto 360 is launched in a few months to see if its round dial design is as good as Motorola's propaganda. (Music compilation)
