LIVE FROM IBS: Bosch-Go-Round

February 13, 2008

This just in from Harry Sawyers at the 2008 International Builders' Show in Orlando, Florida:

There are enough tools at the International Builders' Show to make your head spin. This carousel at the Bosch booth, with everything from drills to table saws, was enough to make us stop, drool, and get a little bit dizzy, too.

Right away I find myself asking "what is the point?" I see that this is a display of Bosch tools, but that is all I see. I cannot see the tools well at all, the spinning display just makes me dizzy and so I do not find myself wanting any of these tools. Maybe I will go the the Bosch website to see what's new. Maybe

The video and/or the display was spinning too fast to draw you in for the sale. Not good for marketing.

If you are to present material in such a fashion, the movie resolution should be clearer; slowly zoom in toward the product, stop, then zoom back out; pan up and down, but not in a continuous circle. Otherwise, the circular motion will (as stated in prior post), make you dizzy.

Somewhat agree with the above, it could be done better, but the idea itself is good...prompted me to go to the Bosch site to check out some of their new offerings.

Too fast. I would rather see new innovations than just a bunch of tools.

Seriously? Bandwidth, resolution, speed of the spinning feature....get a life and go gripe somewhere else.

Thanks Harry for taking the time on top of all of your other duties to provide the videos.

Could be better if you included the new glass & tile bits ;->
