New Delhi, Sept 14: Epson has launched Moverio BT-100, the world's first Android-based, see-through wearable display.
The gadget projects an 80-inch perceived “floating” display five meters away from the user, and lets you watch videos, movies, images in crystal clear clarify, while you are still being able to view the real world.
The device is powered by Android 2.2 and it offers six hours of rechargeable battery life. It comes with a 1GB of internal memory with an additional microSD card slot. The BT-100 supports Wi-Fi connectivity and Adobe flash support to stream online videos.
The BT-100 is basically a big pair of glasses made of 960×540 resolution display – giving you a single image to focus on. The glasses, which are attached by the cord, are in turn attached to a touch-enabled trackpad and navigation butons. After putting the eyewear, the touchpad allows you to navigate the OS much like you would do in a touch screen. It offers you to play games like Angry Birds, where you can fling the Angry Birds that are now inches away from your face.
The real viewing experience comes in form of watching 2D and 3D videos. The sleekness and compatibility of the device really makes watching a movie a wonderful experience.
The BT-100 also enables users to view videos from popular TV websites with Flash 11 content and content-rich Flash enabled websites.
The device will cost you Rs 42,900, and will be available in major retail outlets in Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore and Hyderabad.
