@@mazterlalalaman Whichever glasses do you mean? A pretty sturdy frame costs like 10$ on aliexpress and the labor cost is way less than that in the US or the EU. The main problem is if there is a market for these devices so they would sell.
Quit chasing retail consumers and go after industrial consumers. Make a pair of safety glasses that you can receive data from a phone and a windows computer. Make them in prescription or reading and self dimming. Corporations with workers in the field will eat them up. A heads up display for data, schematics and blue prints would be incredibly helpful in the field.
You do realize you can sell your idea right? Dont delete this because if someone steals it you can sue. I mean if you want to. I say this because I would want you to be credited for the invention and get the money you deserve. Research online how to pitch an invention .

But you will be wearing the glasses for the majority of the time, especially if they are prescription glasses that you need to see. Also, if you lose the ring, it's game over 🤷♀️
Imara Brooks Game over? What do you do if you lose an Apple Air Pod? You buy a replacement. Sure it’s probably going to be very expensive at first, but eventually it will get cheaper. I also find it very incredible you’d assume that something like that would be so easy to lose. People wear rings all the time, myself included, and majority of people don’t lose them most of the time. Heck people wear wedding rings for decades at a time and never lose them.
Ahhh the future is upon us... In the year 2020... Don't forget to charge your ring, glasses, phone, belt buckle, shoe laces, underwear and car keys before you leave the house!
Rod Sly Demeterio pretty sure the “your” is fine, as it would be from the dialogue of someone not a “nerd”, and for comical purposes, a “jock”. Back then, technology wasn’t as developed, and the sciences were not seen as successful as say a baseball player. Now, everyone is speechless at how far tech has come and how much money is there to be made. So the tables have turned
Design was one of the biggest flaws of the Google Glass in my opinion. People constantly made fun of it and everyone regarded it as a gimmick. This looks like something people would actually wear but it uncertain how functional and practical it is.
@@NathanButh Unlike glass which is marketed towards companies such as Boeing, these glasses are being marketed towards consumers. It's why they need to make sure that the design is muted in comparison to Glass.
@sherry Judith it's totally not like there is a mini projector on them and the control switch ring or the fact the glasses won't projected only one way it will be both ways they would see that you are cheating lmao

It's about value. His point is that a very nice vacation and these glasses have the same price, despite the vacation having way higher value. This is true regardless of how much money you have or how much you can afford
@Jon lol I meant to say the exact opposite. I believe there will be control in environment (somehow) and everything will be doable. I'm a 24yr old, I plan most of journeys to be in bikes or public transport for eco-friendly 😎
True. No need for these, but people will buy anyways. They always give excuses why it should be implemented, without analyzing the repercussions. Thanks to these dumb, entitled, spoiled, dim wits we got more problems.
Never gonna happen. The cost per unit of processing power goes down as time goes by -- but that doesn't mean the cost of devices goes down. It means that we make much more powerful devices at the same or slightly higher cost. Early glasses like these will be silly toys for dumb rich people, just like the smart watches are. But the intention of the industry is to create robust general purpose devices capable of replacing a smartphone -- & those won't be set at cheap price points.
Dr. Zoidberg these glasses have about as much processing power as an Obamaphone. All they do is tell the weather and order Ubers not translate languages or run Augmented reality.
Augmented maps would be awesome. Also, Thelonewarrior, the helmet you’re referring to is probably Skully. The startup failed, scandals happened, attempts to revive, and the whole thing is still in a kind of limbo. People that preordered in 2014 are still waiting for one (no refund mentioned).
@@dr.zoidberg8666 If we advance our reshearch in the new computational techniques and similar we could double or triple the strenght of our electronics. so instead of laying the components of a microchip in the way that we are doing (or architecture of those even) if we do it another way we could very easily triple the power of graphics cards. so for example a graphics card which is 8 Gigabytes now if it had a different architecture it could achieve 16 or even 24 gigabytes same goes for processing chips. with different architecture 3 MHz processor could be a 6 GHz processor or even 9GHz processor and luckily hardware manufacturers are investing in these new architectures.
It could be used with smart navigation tools to give you directions as HUD arrows. Most people typically use the top half of their glasses for distance viewing so if the directions were in the lower portion you could avoid having to look down at your phone for directions. Would need some study to look at the impact on user safty though.
A pair of smart glasses with no screen, that activates only when you want to, allows you to send, read and receive text messages/FB messages, interact with Alexa, ask a question in google, get local maps, get directions to where you’re going, play your music, take/make phone calls, show you the current weather, show you the weather forecast, and of course show you the current time, etc. That’s quite a bit of info - almost as much as any high end smart watch, all of which start at $399+ and go up to $1999+, all while in a much more ergonomic and private design that reduces your screen time while letting you connect more with the people and places you love in real life isn’t enough? Considering regular glasses can easily cost more than $300 each, $999 for these truly revolutionary smart glasses isn’t asking for that much considering they’re also just in low rate initial production, meaning the price will likely drop by ~25% by the end of next year, is really, really good all things considered.
I thought the big selling point of these things was an integrated camera. Which allows you to basically record like if you were in an First person game
If they open up the software so that anyone can make apps for it then I would love to buy one, otherwise paying 1000 dollars for this when you can just glance at your Smartphone or Smartwatch is stupid and it will fail.
10 years is way too far out -- 10 years is basically the distance between the invention of the smart phone & the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 -- & information technology only accelerates. I fully expect to see a much more functional pair of glasses from Apple or Samsung by 2020 -- & something that can entirely replace a smartphone by 2022 or 2023.
I wonder how big the market is for 1k glasses that display smartwatch like interface. My guess is that the market for this at this price is understandably small.
@@phoenix_viridis Yeah, you're definitely right. At this point in the hype cycle, they're little more than a toy for the wealthy (or at least reasonably well off).
@@kali3828 Nah, Google Glass probably shouldn't have ever been released to the public. It was basically nothing more than a tech demo to show the world that it was now possible to make small, high density transparent screens. That being said, the product that you're looking at ain't it either. This is an example of a company trying to cash in on the hype cycle before the real products come out, probably brought to you by either Apple of Samsung to begin with. It doesn't represent the cutting edge of what is possible technologically -- only a demonstration that the form factor is now possible. All of that aside, people forget all the time that technological progress is exponential, not linear. Take the human genome project. After 7 years of work, the project had completed right around 1% of the human genome. That lead all kinds of experts who don't understand how technology works to proclaim that we wouldn't see the human genome decoded until 2100 or later. Of course, the following 99% was completed in the next 7 years. That's how exponential progress looks. You see something that is only barely better than the Google Glass. I see that we've almost made it to a viable general purpose holographic interface.
So now everyone's around but no one is looking at each other because they are busy looking at their cellphones.. In future people are looking at each other but not looking at each other?
no people will still talk to each other but we will skip the small talk and get real because we will be able to read your name, age, job and hobbies hovering next to your body.
@@MelonManofWar cool. Then nobody will even have to go through the hassle of feeding me their cover stories in a convincing manner. My glasses will do it for them. Maybe then I will even be able to get fake news through my glasses.
Too much strain on style, they're fugly. And the strain on our wallets as well... $1000 to look odd, to gain information that we can get from a 5-second glance of our phones/smartwatches. And to top it off, yet another vessel for corrupt corporations to use to spy on us... No thanks.
Sure. Got 1k to do it? Im glad i graduated high school when smartphones were almost good in 2012. Lol. Most teachers never thought to take up our phones for tests but i hear now they take everything up. Glasses, smartwatches, phones ofc etc...
Thats about how much a set of regular prescription glasses cost. My last pair was $370. A decant smart watch costs around $250-300. After you factor in the display technology the price is going to be quite high.
So basically you paid $1000 for a glass that saves you 5 seconds of pulling out your phone and glancing at it. I appreciate the technology but it feels like a novelty device.
It's this expensive because the tech is new and they're the only real competitors in the market. Wait for competition and the price will come down drastically
I was going to try and type some thoughtful argument on why it would be a bad idea, but then I just thought about computer screens. ...Just be careful driving. Don't cheat on your exams...
The problem I see with this is... a) it brings no more functionality than other gadgets b) it is bigger and heavier c) It distracts us even more from ourselves.
@@silkyjohnson what if it doesn't matter. What if you never wanna do anything with writing and you have a unit on themes. Or in math the same thing goes
Then Samsung will make one with twice the features for 1/2-2/3rd the price that works with ANY make of phone. With OPTIONs - not some people making a product they like the looks/function of and hope you don't actually look at what your getting for the money 😂
Cody and then the Samsung ones will lag and be obsolete in 6 months because all Samsung cares about is quantity over quality 😂 Apple’s Watch is a perfect example of this. It’s sleek, well-built, and even the older models feel premium. Samsungs watches look like giant toys. No class, no sign of it being based off of jewelry, and a nonexistent following. Nobody cares about Samsung. It’s plain and simply lame tech for nerds. I will never have a need to overclock or hypersuperdrive my Apple products. Why? Because 3-4 years after the purchase: they still work.
At first, phones were made only for calling. Now today, they can do many things more. Right now glasses are made only for seeing, but I predict that in the future that they would do many other things than seeing. In fact, kids would want to have glasses just like they want phones. Remember this comment...
Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen Yes, and those expensive watches are made with expensive materials, hand crafted mechanisms, and heavy quality control. This is just some generic junk of glass and plastic with a microchip in it. probably cost less then 100$ to produce.
I was sold until I saw the ring controller. Their design is top notch no doubt, but something about the way they see users interfacing with the device just makes the whole experience seem disconnected. Let the phone do the heavy lifting for interface/UX and make the glasses an extension of the phone when it's in your pocket.
My only problem with it is that only one lens has the image which could cause eye strain or fatigue. I’m sure they’ll argue that you won’t notice it because it’ll be setup for your dominant eye but that’s ok if you’re willing to put up with that.
Don't worry , they'll just have a team of " experts " and self funded research to deny it !! That'll buy them at least a decade with the rate of docile levels of the public increasing .

The ring is where I said no.
i thought the ring was cool idea.
But you will be wearing the glasses for the majority of the time, especially if they are prescription glasses that you need to see. Also, if you lose the ring, it's game over 🤷♀️
Imara Brooks Game over? What do you do if you lose an Apple Air Pod? You buy a replacement. Sure it’s probably going to be very expensive at first, but eventually it will get cheaper. I also find it very incredible you’d assume that something like that would be so easy to lose. People wear rings all the time, myself included, and majority of people don’t lose them most of the time. Heck people wear wedding rings for decades at a time and never lose them.
You mean you ready to wipe or swap by the front of yours glass with a dirty finger?

The design in the only upgrade here. This is grossly under-ambitious compared to Glass.
Design was one of the biggest flaws of the Google Glass in my opinion. People constantly made fun of it and everyone regarded it as a gimmick. This looks like something people would actually wear but it uncertain how functional and practical it is.
@@Maxtez that's true!
The design is the exact reason why Google Glasses failed...
Glass didn't fail though. It never came out as an explicitly consumer device. It's currently being used by companies like Boeing.
@@NathanButh Unlike glass which is marketed towards companies such as Boeing, these glasses are being marketed towards
consumers. It's why they need to make sure that the design is muted in comparison to Glass.

I'd rather go on a vacation with $1000
Is $1000 a lot to you? Lmfao

...Maybe so you won't need your phone?
These glasses will eventually replace your phone.
As other said, that is the next step to replace your smart phone
True. No need for these, but people will buy anyways. They always give excuses why it should be implemented, without analyzing the repercussions. Thanks to these dumb, entitled, spoiled, dim wits we got more problems.
When people see you just standing there while you’re using the glasses they’re probably gonna think you’re choking or something 😂😂😂
These would be awesome for Google maps on the motorbike, now just for the price to drop to 250, say 5 years?
Never gonna happen. The cost per unit of processing power goes down as time goes by -- but that doesn't mean the cost of devices goes down. It means that we make much more powerful devices at the same or slightly higher cost.
Early glasses like these will be silly toys for dumb rich people, just like the smart watches are. But the intention of the industry is to create robust general purpose devices capable of replacing a smartphone -- & those won't be set at cheap price points.
Dr. Zoidberg these glasses have about as much processing power as an Obamaphone. All they do is tell the weather and order Ubers not translate languages or run Augmented reality.
Augmented maps would be awesome. Also, Thelonewarrior, the helmet you’re referring to is probably Skully. The startup failed, scandals happened, attempts to revive, and the whole thing is still in a kind of limbo. People that preordered in 2014 are still waiting for one (no refund mentioned).
@@dr.zoidberg8666 If we advance our reshearch in the new computational techniques and similar we could double or triple the strenght of our electronics. so instead of laying the components of a microchip in the way that we are doing (or architecture of those even) if we do it another way we could very easily triple the power of graphics cards. so for example a graphics card which is 8 Gigabytes now if it had a different architecture it could achieve 16 or even 24 gigabytes
same goes for processing chips. with different architecture 3 MHz processor could be a 6 GHz processor or even 9GHz processor and luckily hardware manufacturers are investing in these new architectures.
And I thought texting while driving was bad...
Stop looking while driving
It could be used with smart navigation tools to give you directions as HUD arrows. Most people typically use the top half of their glasses for distance viewing so if the directions were in the lower portion you could avoid having to look down at your phone for directions. Would need some study to look at the impact on user safty though.
Only that information for $1k? Lol wut. Are they serious?
LucianHalo early adopters pay premium prices. I paid $5000 for a 42” plasma TV 15 yrs ago...that’s life!
T BZ now you could probably get that for about $200 lol
Валерия Карреон yeah that's his whole point, but for 5k he had it 15 years earlier
A pair of smart glasses with no screen, that activates only when you want to, allows you to send, read and receive text messages/FB messages, interact with Alexa, ask a question in google, get local maps, get directions to where you’re going, play your music, take/make phone calls, show you the current weather, show you the weather forecast, and of course show you the current time, etc. That’s quite a bit of info - almost as much as any high end smart watch, all of which start at $399+ and go up to $1999+, all while in a much more ergonomic and private design that reduces your screen time while letting you connect more with the people and places you love in real life isn’t enough? Considering regular glasses can easily cost more than $300 each, $999 for these truly revolutionary smart glasses isn’t asking for that much considering they’re also just in low rate initial production, meaning the price will likely drop by ~25% by the end of next year, is really, really good all things considered.
masterbuck404 I know, that's why I'm saying haha. To kinda show the price comparison.

Pretty expensive for the same info as smartwatches. I'd wait until they get way cheaper in like 10 years
10 years is way too far out -- 10 years is basically the distance between the invention of the smart phone & the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 -- & information technology only accelerates.
I fully expect to see a much more functional pair of glasses from Apple or Samsung by 2020 -- & something that can entirely replace a smartphone by 2022 or 2023.
I wonder how big the market is for 1k glasses that display smartwatch like interface. My guess is that the market for this at this price is understandably small.
@@phoenix_viridis Yeah, you're definitely right.
At this point in the hype cycle, they're little more than a toy for the wealthy (or at least reasonably well off).
@@dr.zoidberg8666 Youre being ignorantly optimistic. Google glass was released in 2012, and this new 2018 invention is pretty much just a redesign.
@@kali3828 Nah, Google Glass probably shouldn't have ever been released to the public. It was basically nothing more than a tech demo to show the world that it was now possible to make small, high density transparent screens.
That being said, the product that you're looking at ain't it either. This is an example of a company trying to cash in on the hype cycle before the real products come out, probably brought to you by either Apple of Samsung to begin with. It doesn't represent the cutting edge of what is possible technologically -- only a demonstration that the form factor is now possible.
All of that aside, people forget all the time that technological progress is exponential, not linear. Take the human genome project. After 7 years of work, the project had completed right around 1% of the human genome. That lead all kinds of experts who don't understand how technology works to proclaim that we wouldn't see the human genome decoded until 2100 or later. Of course, the following 99% was completed in the next 7 years. That's how exponential progress looks.
You see something that is only barely better than the Google Glass. I see that we've almost made it to a viable general purpose holographic interface.

Thats about how much a set of regular prescription glasses cost. My last pair was $370. A decant smart watch costs around $250-300. After you factor in the display technology the price is going to be quite high.
This isn't as bad as Juicero
So basically you paid $1000 for a glass that saves you 5 seconds of pulling out your phone and glancing at it. I appreciate the technology but it feels like a novelty device.

Cody and then the Samsung ones will lag and be obsolete in 6 months because all Samsung cares about is quantity over quality 😂 Apple’s Watch is a perfect example of this. It’s sleek, well-built, and even the older models feel premium. Samsungs watches look like giant toys. No class, no sign of it being based off of jewelry, and a nonexistent following. Nobody cares about Samsung. It’s plain and simply lame tech for nerds. I will never have a need to overclock or hypersuperdrive my Apple products. Why? Because 3-4 years after the purchase: they still work.

I was sold until I saw the ring controller. Their design is top notch no doubt, but something about the way they see users interfacing with the device just makes the whole experience seem disconnected. Let the phone do the heavy lifting for interface/UX and make the glasses an extension of the phone when it's in your pocket.
Thing for 2 days. All this information you can have on $20 smart watches
Honestly, I think (eventually) smart glasses will most definitely become the smart phone of the future.
Now we just need a breakthrough in battery capacity or wireless charging over greater distance.
My only problem with it is that only one lens has the image which could cause eye strain or fatigue. I’m sure they’ll argue that you won’t notice it because it’ll be setup for your dominant eye but that’s ok if you’re willing to put up with that.
