Google and Mattel send invites for 'View what's possible' event on February 13

Looks like, Google is now looking to woo younger audiences. It recently acquired the augmented reality firm Launchpad Toys and has now teased with an invite for an event to be held on February 14. Google along with toy-maker Mattel has sent out an invite that reads “view what’s possible.” [caption id=“attachment_253438” align=“aligncenter” width=“640”] Invite! Invite![/caption] The invite features a reel that looks part of the View Master toy from mid-90s. However, it is still quite unclear what both companies plan to launch. “Making reference to the View-Master makes us think that maybe Google will bring technologies from Cardboard (or Google Glass?) to one of Mattel’s upcoming products,” points out 9To5Google. Is Google planning to launch a digital version of the View Master? https://twitter.com/caro/status/563419969044508673 TheVerge points out, “Maybe Google’s rethinking  Cardboard for a younger audience.” The event is planned for February 13, which is just a day before Toy Fair 2015 in Manhattan. Obviously, Mattel has a huge presence at the tradeshow and may showcase the product there. https://twitter.com/dnwrld/status/563422963681484800
