You can use augmented reality to test out an Apple Watch

Wouldn’t it suck if you dropped a few hundred bucks (or a few thousand) on an Apple Watch and it turns out that you don’t like how it looks on your wrist? Well thanks to Underside, an IT company from Belgium, you won’t have to worry about that because of their new app that uses augmented reality to show you how the different variants of the smartwatch will look on your wrist. 

Consumers who are still unsure of how the Apple Watch will look on their wrist can now get a better idea using nothing but their iPhone, a printer, and a pair of scissors thanks to a new augmented reality app from Belgian IT firm Underside. Attaching a small, printable target to the wrist and then loading up the app will allow users to visualize different Apple Watch models. Tapping on the screen will cycle through different watch case and band color combinations. Though the images are not perfect, they are a fairly close approximation and would likely suffice for those who are on the fence about purchasing a Watch based on its appearance. The renders do hover slightly over the wrist, but not enough to cause serious distortion.
