Sony has introduced its software development kit (SDK) for those who wish to develop applications for their smart glasses SmartEyeglass. The device syncs with Android devices and works via apps for the platform . The SmartEyeglass will go on sale in late March but still do not know the exact price of the same.
Since the Google Glass presented to the public, there have been few who say that when the test does not look too attractive. Unfortunately, as competitors in this sector are increasing, we are realizing that possibly the smart glasses company’s Mountain View is one of the best designs of smartglasses possible so far.
While Google Glass has a relatively simple design, the Sony SmartEyeglasses come with a much more striking saddle than his rival. But aesthetics helps hide all sensors that embody: An accelerometer, a gyroscope, an electronic compass, ambient light sensor, and a 3 megapixel camera, so you can take all the pictures you want.
The display has a transparency level of 85 percent, and a brightness of 1000 cd / m 2. In addition, the camera can capture video in VGA, with r esolution of 640 x 480 pixels and with the possibility of facial recognition.
In addition, Sony has added an external battery for autonomy; you will have to go hooked to the user’s clothing, along with a microphone. As have their own creators, the entire terminal is designed around the battery, so we can have more hours of use of the device. Apart from this detail, the key difference between this device and the Google Glass is that the Japanese company uses a green monochrome screen to save on color and image projectors.
With them you’ll receive all the notifications that come through your smartphone and send messages or call and receive calls. So in terms of functions, they may be very similar to the Google Glass. Anyway, for these wearable’s succeed, the two companies have to overcome a couple of requirements: continue to improve the technical development of the same and the social stigma that brings out a strange device that is not used to seeing.
The potential is visible because it is a wireless device that lets you surf the Internet or take pictures without using hands. However, not even the developers themselves know very well how they will use in the near future. In fact, the great debate is whether they will be more useful in a home or in one job.
For now, we wait to see what apps will incorporate SmartEyeglass.
