What are the features of Apple Glasses?
No distractions!
TBH, since they are not out yet and i have not personally seen them, I am as curious as you are. But reliable sources say that they would show the screen of the mobile on them. for instance, incoming calls, texts, maps etc. So the thing is it does not distracts you as they would not pose hinderance to your vision and keep you updated. For instance, you an use Maps without looking at the Mobile screen!
Catering focus and Vision
While people with eyesight issues might be thinking, will they be able to wear them? would they need lenses to first adjust their sight and then use the glasses? Well, that is not the case. As per the reports, this technology won’t be needing the prescription lenses. They are the “Smart glasses” that would adjust for sight! Well if that is true, this is going to be the coolest part!
The projection-based system will allow to beam images on the eye, this not requiring the transparent display. It will ensure focus and a double prescription glasses be used for people with sight issues. Also, while focusing on the object, people do suffer from headaches, nausea, and eye strain. Yet, when the object itself becomes focused without an effort, there would be no such issues! As the object would be an inch from retina!
Changing Backgrounds!
You will be seeing what you want to see. You will be able to change the background. The Chroma keying will help you to replace a solid background to anything else.
Google Street View at your Glasses!
Just like your Google street view allows you to view the parts of the world you want to see, the Apple Glasses would allow you to look at whatever you like to see. You can zoom in, focus and see what you like. However, the best part is that it will be projected on to the retina than on the screen of your mobile!
Darkness, No an issue!
The depth sensors allow to see better in dark! Thus darkness is not an issue any more!
Your Privacy matters!
Well Apple is considering your privacy. As you see the world and your phone through the glasses, it will give you an option to make sure your privacy is intact. the screen of your phone will be blurred and would be clearly visible to only to the one wearing glasses! Cool though!
