Consumer Video Eyewear Line – iWear®
Vuzix’ high-resolution Video Eyewear family of consumer products, iWear, solves the main challenge in viewing video and digital information via portable and mobile devices – the small screen. Vuzix’ iWear products are worn like regular glasses and provide the effect of a big screen
experience, ranging from 44” to 62” virtual screens. iWear is ideal for use with media players, portable DVD players, gaming consoles, cell phones and laptops. The company is focused on making iWear the standard mobile equipment for watching news, sports, music videos and movies, and for playing video games on the go. In the summer of 2007, Vuzix launched the first interactive Video Eyewear, the VR920, which enables users of online games, social virtual worlds and social networking sites to communicate with each other and step ‘inside’
cyberspace with stereographic 3D.
