Xiaomi’s Mi Home will on Thursday, February 1, launch its 153rd crowd-funded product. Little is known about the product save for a few hints from the teaser poster and Weibo posts.
The teaser poster hints at a camera related product as a rough translation of the text on it has the phrases “human eye” and “120 frames/second”. The Weibo post also has the same words in addition to “AR” and “photos”. The hints do not end there.

Our guess is that the product is a sort of portable printer that uses AR technology to let you embed a video inside the printed photograph. Once you point your phone at the photograph, it plays a short video of the events leading to when the photo was taken.
We guess we have to wait till Thursday to know if we are right.
