Epson announced today the launch of the Moverio BT-300, a pair of augmented reality smart glasses in Southeast Asia.
The Moverio BT-300 features silicon-based OLED digital display technology, which translates into a really low device weight. It’s the lightest binocular smart glass on the market. There are also micro projectors located on each side of the eyeglasses that project transparent overlays of digital content directly in the user’s field of view. In that context, it means the Moverio BT-300 delivers hands-free function. Other functions include a front-facing 5-megapixel HD camera and intelligent tracking sensors that analyzes the dimensions of an object.
To compare, it’s approximately 20% lighter than its predecessor, the BT-200. In terms of power, nothing beats a quad core Intel Atom processor and Android OS 5.1 for the BT-300. It will also be able to last up to six hours on a full battery, and that’s while processing 3D content.
maintains up to six hours of battery life for processing of 3D heavy content.
Augmented reality smart glasses can improve worker efficiency enabling hands-free and real-time display across various industries such as warehouse/logistics, field service, manufacturing, healthcare, travel and hospitality, retail and more. Uses for the Moverio smart glasses include learning and training purposes, remote field service support for complex repair assistance and troubleshooting, managing of inventory and warehousing, guided museum tours and others.
