While most (79%) of Americans are excited about the chance to learn
and try out new technologies, half are frustrated by the lack of access
to them beyond what they read or see in the media, according to a new
study by Intel and Toluna.
That’s the reason why Intel and Best Buy are now teaming up to bring
new Intel Technology Experience zones to 50 Best Buy stores in major
markets across the U.S. The Intel Technology Experience lets customers –
from tech enthusiasts to technophobes – play, explore, and be inspired
by the power of technology with hands-on activities like 3D printing and
virtual reality games. For many, this is the first opportunity to see,
touch, and play with exciting new technologies they’ve only heard about.
Averaging 240 square feet, the Intel Technology Experience will
show customers the power of Intel: the technology behind these new,
innovative activities is the same power behind the devices like tablets
and laptops we love and rely on every day. Customers can build and print
their own 3D robot, show off their racing skills on Mars in an
augmented reality world, master beats and remix tracks by Ne-Yo as a
digital DJ, and check out the latest PC and tablet devices powered by
Intel processors.
I was able to meet and speak with Erik at the Buckhead, GA location who is a specially trained Best Buy employee and he was wearing a Blue Shirt. He was able to answer all my questions and help me make the most of each area within
the experience. Each season, Intel will refresh the venues with a new
array of technology experiences. Which is definitely wonderful to know.
Overall, I had an exceptional time learning more about the Intel Technology that Best Buy has within some of their products. I had so much fun that I had to even go back to being the DJ before leaving the store.
