What’s to come? What Smart Glasses are Who invented Smart Glasses and when How Smart Glasses work Application Availability Success Ethical considerations Augmented Reality vs. Virtual Reality Conclusion
Smart glasses are a form of augmented reality. Augmented Reality: Adds senses to theexisting, real environment. Integration of virtuality into the tangible world Wearable computer in the form of glasses Not currently designed for full time wear Human Computer Interface control
Smart Glasses are a young piece of technology. First prototyped in late 2012 APX Labs has prototyped many SmartGlasses, including the first ever Google Glass was a breakthrough forSmart Glasses Manufactured by FoxconnTechnology Group
Smart Glasses integrates a computer, cameras, and sensors in orderto deliver the augmented reality experience. Similar to the components of a smartphone Cameras, sensors, GPS, speakers, microphones, CPUEye tracking helps to determine what the user is looking atMini projectors help to cast virtual 3D objects into the real worldAccess information through appsDisplay on a single eyeOnboard computer processes all of this information
Smart Glasses were created for many purposes. Capture personal experiences from the POV of the userNavigate the user on roads or indicate speedingUniversal remote control with compatible devices through hand gesturesSighted companion for blind people by giving them information throughvibrationsStudents can view textbooks and virtual 3D worldsPromotes playing outside and interaction with othersCan display performance measurement and comparison
Smart Glasses Technology is becoming increasinglymore available. There are many units out there already, but very basic in comparison to what is coming Many companies have set 2016/2017 as their anticipated release datesPrototypes are looking very promisingExamples: Google Glass, Meta, Atheer One, Vuzix M-100( 300- 1600)
Smart Glasses have seen little success thus far. Google Glass went out of production less than a year after becomingcommercially available Many laws and legislation surrounding smart glasses have restricted theirapplication Not attractive looking Technology is not optimized yet
Smart Glasses come with several ethical concerns. Privacy issues Potential threat of cheating on exams Distracting
Augmented Reality vs. Virtual RealityAugmented Reality: Surroundings enhanced by the use of virtual objectsUser can see the real world along with the virtual oneUser can interact with the virtual objectsVirtual Reality: Creates a virtual world where the user can immerse themselves inSee the virtual world onlyDirect movements affect the virtual world
Conclusion Smart Glasses are a form of augmentedrealityPromising technology that comes withmany ethical dilemmasHasn’t been extraordinarily successful sofarNot the same as virtual realityLearned what augmented reality is andmore behind the application andtechnology of Smart Glasses

Forrester Research predicts 14.4 million American workers will use smart glasses on the job by 2025.3 In manufacturing, workers will use these tools to interact with the rest of the smart factory and assume their role in the Industrial Internet of Things. 3The next generation of mobility in manufacturing: Vuzix M300 Smart Glasses on the plant floor
Smart augmented reality glasses are disrupting enterprise mobility, allowing users to work heads-up and hands-free and remain situationally aware at all times. Smart glasses are simple to operate, highly accessible tools for receiving task-based information, recording and validating data, and showing one's work to others in real time.
The main benefit of a AR smart glasses compared to other remote support solutions via tablet or smartphone, is that the wearer of the smart glass has its hands-free to perform tasks. Further, the expert has the exact same point of view as the wearer of the AR smart glass, as the camera is integrated into the AR smart glass.
using appropriate PPE as applicable (i.e. safety glasses, goggles, welding shields, face shields, etc.)? 18. Do safety glasses have frames constructed of plastic or metal with impact-resistant lenses? 19. Do safety glasses have side shields? 20. Do safety glasses and goggles completely cover the eyes, eye socket and area surrounding the eyes? 21.
