Wouldn’t it be cool to be able to dynamically frame a picture with your hands and snap it with a blink of your eye? Well, that is exactly what this [futuristic concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lenovo-ai-glasses-concept) by Mac Funamizu does.

So how would it work? The [stylish sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meta-rayban-display-sunglasses) will have an [integrated camera](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tws-earbud) which takes a picture of the area you frame with your two hands using the universal ‘frame’ gesture.

Options are displayed on the inner side of the glasses with instructions such as, “Shut your left eye to shoot.”

I know it’s a rather wild design, but with our great technological advances, we can have something like this in the next decade.

Check out more ambitious designs by Mac Funamizu below.
