2. TOPIC

3. LIST OF CONTENTS...
• Introduction.
• Who Invented it.
• Technology Used.
• Different Models.
• Different Types.
• Uses& Advantages.
• Disadvantages.
• Conclusion.

4. Introduction.
• Wearable computers that adds information to what the wearer
sees.
• Are computerized internet connected glasses.
• With transparent heads up display.

5. • Like other computers smart glasses also collect information from internal
and external sources.
• Smart glasses have all the features of smart phones.
• Supports Bluetooth, wi-fi, and GPS.
• Some also have activity tracker functionality features(such as distance
walked or run, calories burned, heartbeat count etc.).

7. Inventor
… Professor Steve Mann
Father of Smart Glasses
Steven Mann is a
Canadian researcher
and inventor best
known for his work
particularly wearable
computing .

8. Technology used..

9. Display Types
Various techniques have existed for see through
HMDs.
Some Main Families:-
Curved Mirror :- used by Vuzix, by Olympus, and Laster technologies.
Waveguide or Light guide based :- used by Sony, Epson.
Virtual Retinal Displays :- technology that draws a raster display(like
telivision onto the retina of eye).
Technical Illusions CastAR :- uses a different technique with clear glass. The
Glass has a projector, and image is returned to the eve by a reflective
surface.

10. Augmented Reality(AR)
• Is a direct/indirect view of physical, real world environment.
• By contrast Virtual reality replaces the real world with a simulated
one.
• Augmentation is conventionally in real time and in semantic
context with environment elements, such sports scores on TV
during a match.
• With help of AR Technology information of real world becomes
interactive and digitally manipulable.

12. Head-mounted display(HMD)
• It is a device paired to forehead such as a helmet.
• It place images of both the physical world and virtual
objects over the user’s field of view.

14. Hardware
• Processors.
• Display.
• Sensors.(GPS, accelerometer, and solid state compass)
• Input devices.

15. • Vuzix M300.
• Epson Moverio BT-300.
• Sony SmartEyeGlass.
• Jins Meme.
Different models available…

21. 4. Jins Meme.
• Tokyo based Jins demoed its Meme smart glasses over in 2015
and while they haven't gone on sale yet.
• Detects body movements to track and alert on safety, health and
fitness.
• They can track tiredness and alert drivers who may be about to
nod off.
• There's still no details on US or UK pricing , but in Japan its
39000 JPY.

22. TWO TYPES

23. A. Glasses with one display.
Glasses with one display in peripheral vision
Can:
 Display information.
 Be “smart” (sensing, processing, actuation) .
Can not:
 Produce 3D content.
 Create a virtual or diminished reality.
 Fully exhaust the possibilities of augmented reality.

25. B. Glasses with two display.
Can be used to create:
 Virtual reality.
 Augmented reality.
 Diminished reality.
