RIP FaceTime? šŸ˜³
Panda lets you talk with superpowers.
Ā 
The voice controlled cameraĀ app triggers AR effects in real-time using your words, best used with friends. It's like having a special effects team to help you tell stories in real time.
Ā 
The app has been in development for the past year by 18 year-old founder Daniel Singer and a team of five. For OG Product Hunt community members, you may recognize Daniel's name from this popular side project. The app might seem like a toy but the team has clearly put a lot of thought into their vision (pun intended):

"The ultimate goal for Panda is to make the movie inside of your head real. I think we've invested a lot as a society of building tools to document what happens to us and the world around us but have mostly ignored the beautiful worlds that exist in our mind."
Ā 
Augmented and virtual reality will shape the next generation of digital communication. With Appleā€™s recent Memojis announcement and a host of 3D avatar apps in development, we expect to see (again, pun intended) more of our communication visually augmented in the future.
Ā 
Easter egg: You can record silly clips inside of Panda.Ā Try saying ā€œFortniteā€, ā€œDinosaurā€, or ā€œHQ Triviaā€ and see what happens. It will feel likeĀ you're inside of Facebook or Snapchat'sĀ R&D department.
Try Panda šŸ¼
