Intel Vaunt - Smart Glasses that look normal

by

These aren't another weird Google Glass => they have a retinal projection to put a display in your actual eyeball. Super light, not creepy, and definitely the future

I'd be curious to hear what health professionals think about this type of constant retinal projection. We discuss "too much screen time" today... What happens when up the ante and consistently project low-powered lasers into ourselves throughout the day? I'd still wear a pair tho...
Rudy Lee
@kleinkleinklein That's a really interesting point.. I still think a lot of people would want it no matter what

me: THIS IS THE FUTURE! also me: But I had lasik to stop wearing glasses!

@syswarren 😂
Joshua Pinter
@syswarren @loaibassam I also had Lasik and I actually miss wearing glasses a lot. The biggest benefit: wearing sunglasses whenever the eff you want!
Julie Chabin
@loaibassam @joshuapinter I have sooooo many sunglasses. They are my thing now.

"Google Glass, and the Glassholes who came with it, gave head-worn displays a bad reputation. HoloLens is aiming for a full, high-end AR experience that literally puts a Windows PC on your head."

Very interesting concept. I can't even imagine all the applications that would come out of it. But how to apply for early access?
Fletcher Fowler
@ahounoukhaled intel needs to figure out how to make a prelaunch signup page
Joshua Pinter
I don't get how this is on Product Hunt? It links to a Verge article. If this is "Pre-Launch", it makes KickStarter products look like they are on the shelf at your nearest BestBuy.

It changes lives. Amazing! Would lov to check them out

Count me in. Plus they don't look like they weigh 10 pounds like other glasses out there.

I work on a company developing AR Glasses and I actually wonder where are the batteries and how long will this device last. Based on my experience, battery duration will be very short.
Jonathan Zhan
@emilianodc The linked article says they’re aiming for 18 hrs of battery life!
Paul Shapiro
I want it

I used Google Glass and it was a disaster. Intel glasses look promising, but I am still very sceptic about the whole idea. P.S.: Vault doesn't look stylish tho.
David Nelsen
This seems like a better first step entry into wearables. Something people might actually use on a daily basis.
Edward Tay
would it be better than this though https://laforgeoptical.com/pages...

@iamedwardtay I want to know too

How does one get early access to Vaunt. I'd like to port an idea I have onto the platform.
Amie Serrano
Interesting concept.
Johnny Lemberg
They looks amazing!
Bobby Marli
It is future! Incredible thing
Anthony Da Mota
Yes please, Intel, we need that.
Nic Perry
Exciting! I can't wait to see how these perform in the real world, this is the kind of usable AR I've been waiting for - toss in the ability to define some places to see data and I'm sold (i.e. show me our daily sales chart on that wall whenever I look at it.)
