Company Osterhout Design Group (ODG), about which in March it was announced that it had sold to Microsoft patents for wearable electronics devices (transaction is estimated at 100-150 million dollars), continues to develop in this direction. The site ODG was reported, which talked about the development of smart points R-7.
According to the developer, points R-7 will be the first “fully integrated with the function of glasses augmented reality forming considered for clearance stereoscopic image.” The basis of the device selected SoC Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor running at 2.6 GHz running Android 4.4.3, and the platform Qualcomm Vuforia Mobile Vision Platform.
In the glasses R-7 has found application developed ODG system including electro and computer subsystems and subsystem sensors and power supply. Formation of the image assigned to two independent semi-transparent display resolutions of 1280 x 720 pixels. The image on them is updated 100 times per second. As stated, it allows real-time complement the picture of the world by volume, photo-realistic images, video streams and text notes.
Equipment includes two glasses camera, gyroscope, magnetometer and accelerometer and pressure sensor. Have a receiver GPS, wireless connectivity means 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, the receiver FM. About the battery life of the device data are not available.
In these days in San Francisco hosts a conference for developers Qualcomm Uplinq 2014, which brought ODG Points R-7 and another model – R-6. This model is already at the stage beta. Until the end, the manufacturer expects to begin shipment of R-6 government customers. Model R-7 will also be initially focused on government agencies and corporations. Its delivery to begin in the second quarter of 2015.
