Taking design cues from the Oakley Thump MP3 player sunglasses is never a good idea. But that’s not the only fault these Vuzix Wrap 920AR glasses have. The resolution sucks. More »
Vuzix launched a camera add-on for the iWear VR920 video headset which surveys the space in front of the cam, and superimposes interactive, 3D graphics on top. Here what was on display at GDC 09.
The full details won’t be available until CES this year, but Vuzix is already teasing us with this image of their Wrap 920AV video glasses.
Back in June, our own Brian Lam did a Battlemodo between two high-res video goggles. During that review he noted “I do wish they came in 16:9 versions, but the 4:3 ratio is probably more practical.” Well, Vuzix is going to put that to the test with their new AV310 goggles. They claim that it is the first video eyewear to offer a true widescreen experience—the equivalent of a 52-inch screen viewed from a distance of 2.7 metres. It also features 5 hours of battery life on a single AA as well as a typical “3D” setting. Expect the AV310 to retail for $US250.
