Augmented Reality is more than Virtual Reality

Essentials

Today's augmented reality projects are still most often just about software. The necessary display glasses are taken as is. But this has been the same for the last decade and more, so we cannot really expect any progress this way.

Essential requirements for display glasses are:

Eye tracker

Mask display

Position cameras

Dynamic image generator

Dynamic fit and focus adaptation

No straps, no screws, no belts, no clamps !

In current products, you will hardly find any of these at all

 

The technology to realize all this is available. It cannot only be done, it can be integrated in a very light and convenient pair of glasses, even containing its own power supply.
