You just made fpv legal in australia sir…. Had this idea for awhile never got to implant it ! Congrats and well done…. We need this refined and mass produced if for the Australian market alone ! 😊❤
Extreme respect! for not just thinking about that idea but actually creating that idea into reality🙌 (and now I have another reason to switch to WS xD)
Great idea! I was thinking the other day how useful it would be to have a picture in picture or something in fpv feed from a self pov camera on the goggles. But your solution is technically legal to fly being "unaided visual los" .
It's not perfect, as it's really distracting seeing from 2 perspectives at once. But should still help on the legal end of things. I wonder if picture In picture would be easier on the brain lol
I've seen some commercial inspire and big drone pilots use a single eye piece on an arm like a spy or something so they can move around directly behind a drone but still see both los and fpv. @@nateharmsfpv
This is a great idea. Really the only thing that keeps me from doing more FPV where I'm more ideally just standing out in the open is that I can't see my surroundings. Just never a situation I want to put myself in.
Nice. I won a set of Xreal glasses a couple weeks ago and had considered a "FPV with these things" video but i ... got lazy and distracted. My working solution is currently a USB Power bank connected to both a usb to 12v for the VRX, and a usb powered hdmi to usbc adapter. no soldering but a bit clumsy.
@@nateharmsfpv Ya, the nreal glasses are awesome I use them with the cover on when I fly. But before FPVing with them I was using them with my steam deck and playing games. And noticed there was not a lot of lag.
nice bro. i had that same idea. but did not have the budget to try it. but u definitely made it work. with some tweaks i think ur idea will eventually catch on people in the hobby will surely try it and make it work for everybody. keep it up bro. i'm waiting for your final revision of the system. 👍
Great video and you got my sub :D I ran into your project on thingiverse, while checking out xreal AR glasses mods. I'm actually working on the exact same thing, except in my case I'm creating a module for analog and HD-Zero. I'm looking forward to seeing how your project progresses. Greetings from Germany.
Good luck on your project and thanks for the sub! Just as a warning, the glasses only take 1080p or higher as I found out when trying analog. You will need an hdmi upscaler of some kind if the output is 720p or lower. Greetings from Canada!
@@nateharmsfpv Thanks for the tips. I already have an analog to HDMI 1080p upscaler. For HD-Zero upscaling, I found an upscaler dongle from a company called Lindy. However, I can't seem to find it anywhere for sale online. I'm writing them email to get more information about it.
2:20 I feel like if your eye balls can make contact with the drone with out any sight enhancing tech you should be good with the faa plus with prescription lenses it’s a win- win
Thanks! Latency is comparable to, but higher than dji goggles at 38-44ms. I did a latency test video on my channel with glass to glass. I made a video "the bow dive round 2", all of the fpv in that video was shot entirely using this ws drone with a mounted gopro.
@@nateharmsfpv I have both systems. I'm not talking about the latency of the systems. I'm referring to using hdmi or usb-c to your glasses. I'd expect there to be some latency, which is what I'm referring to. Any latency from googles to your inconspicuous glasses in this video?
@djdubz Yep! That's what I was referring to as well. Glass to glass meaning the camera lense to my eyes. It was averaging 45ms ish I believe. You can see me actually do the test here: th-cam.com/video/fGPC334vE_0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=J3XhAkAOeUyDGpfv
I wouldn't use this for drone freestyle because of the increased latency, but I thought about using it for LR flights with a plane, with high gain antennas on the goggles (so the goggles would be mounted and I could wear the xreal).
I was freestyling a bit this morning with it. I probably wouldn't take it Bando bashing, but for park flying it seemed to do pretty well. Next stop is downtown to try and stealth building dive. These would be so comfortable for a long range wing flight for sure!
Awesome video! ... is there a way to input a different image to each eye? I feel like the next step in FPV is to add a sense of depth.... 2 cameras/vtx, set about the same width apart as your eyes on the drone (ideally adjustable), each send a separate image to each eye of the goggles.. this would give you depth perception that matches your natural eyes and would take this hobby to the next level of realism.... if you could add head tracking that would be the pinnacle of immersion... i've been thinking about this for a couple years (even designed a frame for it), but it's just out of my league to try and hack some FPV goggles in half to get them to accept different images to each eye (also pretty damn expensive)... any thoughts?
Thanks! And yes! I have actually been thinking about that idea for a long time. Tried building my own analog goggles for it but the resolution was too low on the screens I bought. These glasses are a good contender, however the biggest challenge will be the software side. The glasses have built in head tracking and other AR features so it's very doable. The dev kit for these uses unity which poses a few problems, the biggest being latency and processing power. You would most likely need to bring a laptop with video card to the field with you. It would also require 2 independent hdmi capture cards that could run with as little latency as possible. All in all, it's 100% possible with these glasses, but the software and portability factors would be the biggest hurdle.
You wouldn’t want this because it will became trouble many people experience when using VR. when picture become more “real” you brain start to thinking you are poisoned because you didn’t move but image in front of your eyes is moving. This will cause nausea. Maybe a head tracking and controlled gimbal will help to reduce this effect.
Fantastic project, thank. I am gathering the parts. Any alternate sources for the hdmi to type C adapter, I am having trouble finding one that will ship to the USA. The link you supplied won't ship to me.

Very cool man, want to know the refresh rate and the quality on those things. Also I would like to make a suggestion to make your background musics volume lower cause I can’t really over hear your voice haha😂
Refresh rate on the glasses I believe can hit 120hz, but because I can only use 1080p on the vrx, I'm limited to 60hz by the vrx itself. The quality of the image is insane, on par or better than my dji v2 goggles and true 1080p. The fov of the screen is a bit small at something like 40° but I didn't mind it, just means my eyes see more at once. The fov will definitely bother some people. Thanks for the suggestion! I edited with headphones on, but should have checked how it actually came out 😅
Thanks man! No patents, all I did was design a box and stick some wires together 😅 I'd rather those in the community that could use this, innovate with it.
I wish I had a way of testing it, but it feels low enough for anything but pro racing. Because it only takes 1080p, the vrx is like 32ms. Glass to glass it's probably closer to 38-44ms, but that's really a guess
If you have 240fps on a phone or gopro you can film an led light turning on in glasses and outside glasses in same shot and get a rough latency number. @@nateharmsfpv

@@nateharmsfpvI liked the idea of these glasses with a custom OpenHD/OpenIPC HD system. Maybe that might offer lower latency for you. They were testing out some 1080p120 fps cameras recently
Cool work! I hope it becomes a 'thing'! I have a big old broken analog camera from Amazon that I set up to velcro to my DJI FPV Goggles. For a couple of years now, I just pop it on whenever I think I'll be flying where I may be approached and asked "Where's your spotter?" I just point to the goggle-mount cam... and most people say something like "OH COOL!!! That's a great idea!!!!" lol. It's worked 3 times for me!..., once with a park ranger, another by a "googling expert" Harpie Karen type, and once with a cop who was called by another raging Karen (who has since been lectured by dispatch to 'leave the guy alone!', he has a right to fly." ...so cool, I know, right? !!!!) I hate being deceptive, but it's super annoying dealing with dumb people who don't get it. I just wanna be left alone, and fly.
Couple of days ago i wondered if this was possible I draw a lot in 3D CAD software. So firtst i wanted to buy VR goggles. But than again the uprise of ar glasses and the price made me doubt. They easily cost 300euro and up. If i get it right you can fly FPV with these kind of AR glasses. But the drawback is the near angle of sight. How distracting is this, the smal viewing angle? Because when I'm midd flight i want to feel like an eagle 🦅 My doubt went from VR goggles (wich i think can replace FPV drone goggels?), To AR glasses with the blinding shitters like yours. So you can still have an kind of VR Feeling, if desired. Thanks for sharing. :)
Hi there, I have bought the same HDMI to Type-C , HDMI Mini to HDMI converters and Xreal Air. Yet, I could only see nothing and a 4:3 blue screen even updating to the latest Walksnail firmware. I have checked the diaplay output by connecting to a TV which shows normal Walksnail UI. I wanna know if there is any settings need to do?
Hey! Connect it back up to your TV, power on your drone, in the goggle settings (under display I think) set it to 1080p, not 720. The xreal air will only take 1080p
Hi there, after months of research and trial, I have found a solution to enjoy Race mode and 720p standard mode. I have added a device called MClassic, which is a retro game and Switch upscaler. You may try it if you have the need to play with multiple Walksnail pilots @@nateharmsfpv
So why not just use a hdmi to usb c cable? And then just put the walksnail vrx in your pocket or something? Also how is the latency with the nreal glasses. I thought about using a hdmi to usb c cable before but I wasnt sure about the latency.
Unfortunately the nreal glasses require an independent power source as the power through hdmi is not enough. The adapter allows me to feed a stable 5v 2amp directly into the type c cable. The latency is not noticeable any more than dji goggles. But I'll be doing a latency test hopefully this weekend and will share here
@Wenduoy Yeah, they don't have a built in battery, but weigh something like 50 grams so are very comfortable. Because a battery is needed for the vrx anyway, it's not a huge loss for me personally
@@gheob2002 Average latency on this setup was 44.159ms glass to glass. This is within the same realm of dji or walksnail. I did a test here, and you can see the results near the end of the video: th-cam.com/video/fGPC334vE_0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bHWOpTQ6mvV6yc5G
I think it would be really cool if a drone operator could utilize a insta360 while flying so they could get that video game perspective those cameras can provide. Could help with maneuvering through unique obstacles and locations.
BTW I am just getting into FPV, and was scheming to use my xreals to avoid buying goggles. Am planning to use a powerbank to power the HDMI converter and VRX, just gonna tape it to the back of the vrx, and wrap up the hdmi and power cables from the powerbank/vrx combo to the converter together as well. should be pretty clean.
@ashirbasu1730 the xreal airs won't accept less than 1080 even out of my pc so I think it will be a problem unless the adaptor you use allows for upscaling. Keep in mind the vrx requires at least 7volts to operate so make sure your bank has a port for that. It will go up to 21v so a 9v or 12v port will work fine. Good luck on your build and welcome to the hobby!
All I want from dji is for them to make a dang vrx with hdmi out 😂 I had to buy into the whole walksnail ecosystem just for this project because dji couldn't be arsed to build what the community needs. The way the laws are going, I could totally see them porting their tech to the world of AR. But it will still be cheaper than Apple head gear 😅
They already do that. But not for fpv community. Just for regular drones like mini 3 or 4. U can directly connect ur AR like xreal in RCpro and fly. But i feel that company like HDzero or Walksnail make first step for make some vrx for AR.
Glad to see these new and nice things coming ,this would be the feature!Enough market paying for crap quility fpv exclusive gaggles using acient technology cheap material and sell for tons of money made by person who gain money extreme selfish.sorry for saying that but truth🤣
just the dongle and the volt regulator are extras. The glasses itself cost less than 300$ with screen quality and fov greater than top of the end goggles while only weighting 70g. The fpv goggles market is heavily overpriced, it puzzles me why I need to pay 1000$ for a screen on my face and the lenses are not even that good
@@nateharmsfpv it's a menu option you need to enable. The fun thing is if your goggles only support 720 input and you are messing in the menu and select 1080 ur screwed.
You just opened up a new door to how fun the FPV really is. Great job mate!

what is the latency on this system? It seems to be a constant concern whenever people are looking into using AR glasses for FPV.
@@gheob2002 Average latency on this setup was 44.159ms glass to glass. This is within the same realm of dji or walksnail. I did a test here, and you can see the results near the end of the video: th-cam.com/video/fGPC334vE_0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bHWOpTQ6mvV6yc5G
@@nateharmsfpv will be avout the same as using the Walksnail googles?
Looks cool 👍
this is amazing!
Did you have any issues with the picture being doubled on the glasses?
I don't have any issues like that
@@nateharmsfpv just my luck… 🙄
@Rckid28 whats going on with your double vision issue? Is it like 2 screens on 1, or like a background reflection?
@@nateharmsfpv the top 1/3 of the image is cut off and at the bottom of the screen, and I’m even using the first party adaptor
@@Rckid28 Oh wow, that's really weird. Have you tried a 3rd party adaptor? Also, is your vrx set at 1080p?
I think it would be really cool if a drone operator could utilize a insta360 while flying so they could get that video game perspective those cameras can provide. Could help with maneuvering through unique obstacles and locations.
This is amazing!!!
Hey, does this work with the 100fps vrx mode + 120fps xreal firmware?
BTW I am just getting into FPV, and was scheming to use my xreals to avoid buying goggles. Am planning to use a powerbank to power the HDMI converter and VRX, just gonna tape it to the back of the vrx, and wrap up the hdmi and power cables from the powerbank/vrx combo to the converter together as well. should be pretty clean.
No it doesn't. The video will not come through to the glasses unless it is 1080p which restricts the fps to 60
@@nateharmsfpv sounds like that's probably coz of how the converter you're using works. Will try a different one and update this comment in a bit.
@ashirbasu1730 the xreal airs won't accept less than 1080 even out of my pc so I think it will be a problem unless the adaptor you use allows for upscaling.
Keep in mind the vrx requires at least 7volts to operate so make sure your bank has a port for that. It will go up to 21v so a 9v or 12v port will work fine.
Good luck on your build and welcome to the hobby!
@@nateharmsfpv nope, you're right. The signal mode is still 1080p, it's just scaling it up from 720p on the gpu. Bummer.
Are those viture or xreal glasses?
Xreal airs
@@nateharmsfpv to bad it don’t work on dji
@@Rckid28agreed.
@@nateharmsfpv did you try the xreal hdmi adaptor?
thats sick
Watch as DJI steals this and makes it cost $2k+. Awesome idea.🤙👍
All I want from dji is for them to make a dang vrx with hdmi out 😂 I had to buy into the whole walksnail ecosystem just for this project because dji couldn't be arsed to build what the community needs. The way the laws are going, I could totally see them porting their tech to the world of AR. But it will still be cheaper than Apple head gear 😅
They already do that. But not for fpv community. Just for regular drones like mini 3 or 4. U can directly connect ur AR like xreal in RCpro and fly.
But i feel that company like HDzero or Walksnail make first step for make some vrx for AR.
I wanted to do this the first day I got my AR glasses. Unfortunately I have DJI.
Same here. I spent way too much money buying into walksnail just for this haha
@@nateharmsfpv I’m thinking about it 🤔
@@Rckid28 I mainly fly Dji as well, but just got in to Walksnail recently for the micro capability. Maybe for this as well. This is too cool.
@@mikebergman1817 I ordered one 👌
Glad to see these new and nice things coming ,this would be the feature!Enough market paying for crap quility fpv exclusive gaggles using acient technology cheap material and sell for tons of money made by person who gain money extreme selfish.sorry for saying that but truth🤣
This is insane 😂
😂 my shower thought projects tend to lean to the more insane haha
50° FOV is not bad, most dedicated FPV goggles out there are 46 no?
A lot of light has to get through those but still pretty cool
Oh tons, I mean they are literally see thru 😅 It takes a few flights to kind of adapt to the distractions
Yessss
Ada2 aj londo 😮
please test latency
I have. Please see this video, latency test at 7min th-cam.com/video/fGPC334vE_0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=U77wIVx3fYHnnm77
This way you can be your own spotter. There is no way someone else can prove you weren't flying line of sight.
Bye bye creepers walking up on you.
The remote will probably still give you away.
What blasphemy you speak of….. remote? 😮😂
That’s crazy, I have a complete FPV set up with the same kind of FPV glasses given to me from a RC pilot from the late 70s early 80s.
When you are your own visual observer.
#NeverBrokeVLOS
You don't need a spotter now
Nope! Just me and my cool dude glasses 😎 Although I think I need twice as much brain power to actually focus on both.
When the say fly los this is what they mean 😂
now you just need a covert transmitter
🤣 I was thinking about that! But I have no idea what would make a transmitter look stealthy. Gimbals are way too fat for a cellphone look
so much extra electronics for a not really great video experience... but damn do you look cool. 😎
just the dongle and the volt regulator are extras. The glasses itself cost less than 300$ with screen quality and fov greater than top of the end goggles while only weighting 70g. The fpv goggles market is heavily overpriced, it puzzles me why I need to pay 1000$ for a screen on my face and the lenses are not even that good
hdzero isn't true HD. LOL
😁😁 for this project I mean it literally too. Glasses won't even turn on for less than 1080p hahaha
@@nateharmsfpvHDzero does have a 1080p output mode for picky HDMI inputs.
@ huh, TIL. I didn't think it did
@@nateharmsfpv it's a menu option you need to enable. The fun thing is if your goggles only support 720 input and you are messing in the menu and select 1080 ur screwed.
@ haha, I imagine you would have to do what I did for these and plug em into a monitor to switch it back
