The concepts of AR and VR have been in the public eye for a long time. Big companies Google and Microsoft have their own AR glasses equipment. They all have one thing in common, that is, they are extremely expensive. In fact, they can experience AR glasses without spending so much money. Next, we will invite today's leading role Epson Intelligent Glasses BT-30C to the stage.
Everyone may be familiar with Epson. Epson is a global technology leader with outstanding achievements in printing, visual communication, wearable devices, robots and other fields. In the list of 2018 World Top 500 Brands released by the World Brand Lab in December 2018, Epson ranked 318th. It is a company with strong technical strength and reserves.
Back to today's leading role, the smart glasses BT-30C adopts the binocular perspective Si OLED optical engine technology.
It has two Si OLED displays, one for each eye, which are reflected by the side glass and projected into the lens in the center of the glasses. It can form a 3D effect. According to official data, the panel is 0.43 inch. Due to the characteristics of OLED panel, the BT-30C contrast can reach 100000:1, can display 16.77 million colors, the resolution is 1280 x 720, and the maximum brightness can reach 1000nit. The display effect is significantly improved compared with the previous generation of products.
The BT-30C smart glasses carry out data transmission and exchange through the Type-C data cable. Connecting the data cable to the Type-C data cable on the mobile phone can transmit the pictures on the mobile phone to the smart glasses in real time. There is also a controller on the data cable. There is a 3.5mm headphone interface in the controller. The headset can be directly connected to the smart glasses without passing through the mobile phone.
The controller also has a separate button to adjust the brightness and volume of the smart glasses. It can also be picked up and adjusted when needed.
There is a separate Moverio Link software, which can adjust the volume and brightness in the APP.
In addition, it can also be optimized for smart phones. Users often encounter the wrong touch of the phone when using it. By shaking the phone from left to right, the phone screen can be locked to avoid more wrong touch. If the smartphone is not operated for more than 10 seconds, the software will automatically turn on the power-saving mode to reduce the brightness of the smartphone screen, so as to save power. The brightness of the mobile phone and the brightness of the smart glasses do not affect each other, so it is recommended to set the brightness of the mobile phone to the minimum when watching the movie. It can also achieve the effect of protecting privacy.
The BT-30C uses perspective display technology. The displayed content seems to be suspended on glasses. The content displayed on the screen will not affect your viewing of the outside world. It is full of technology. You can have leisure and entertainment on the high-speed railway on the plane during the journey, and can also use it for office work at any time when you are on a business trip.
The BT-30C weighs 95g (not including the cable). Compared with a VR device of several hundred grams, it is relatively light and heavier than ordinary glasses. Long term wearing comfort is also much better than VR devices.
From the perspective of product characteristics, the BT-30C is a device that focuses on entertainment needs. The author will focus on the entertainment experience of the BT-30C.
For the author, the longest time to use BT-30C is to watch videos. The area of the BT-30C two screens is not large, but because the glasses are almost close to the screen, it is equivalent to watching an 80 inch screen at a distance of 5 meters. The effect is very good, and the display will not move with the movement of the human body, which can unlock many viewing positions. During the recent special period when I stayed at home, I was tired of watching TV on the sofa, so I can choose to take the BT-30C to lie down and continue watching. It is relaxing and does not affect the viewing experience. I can enjoy the experience like a cinema without leaving home.
In terms of display effect, if the BT-30C is used after the lights are turned off, the effect is the best. It really looks like a projector suspended in the air, with bright colors and high brightness. Secondly, similar effects can be achieved in indoor black scenes. If you are outside, the reality effect will decline slightly. You need to increase the brightness. Fortunately, the maximum brightness of the BT-30C can reach 1000 nit, which will not affect the outdoor experience.
Both the left and right lenses of the BT-30C can display content, which just meets the needs of 3D video. The official Moverio Link application also has a one button switch between 2D and 3D display effects. When you just have the source of 3D video, turn on the 3D display, and you will feel very immersive.
Thanks to its compact size and special display technology, the BT-30C is not vulnerable to external interference, which means that its use environment is particularly wide. Buses and subways are crowded with people, and your hands are not allowed to leave the support. At this time, the advantages of the BT-30C can be brought into play. Take it with you and play a movie. You will find that time passes quickly.
The content displayed by glasses can only be seen from the front, but can't be seen from other locations. This can also effectively protect personal privacy, and you can see whenever you want.
In order to take care of all users, Epson provides a small frame for the BT-30C, which is equipped with a myopia lens. The wearing comfort will be improved.
According to the author's test, the BT-30C can also be used on a laptop, as long as your laptop has a lightning 3 interface. The use experience is similar to that of mobile phones, but the advantages of playing games on computers can be greater than that of mobile phones. Connect the handle, and you can lie on the sofa in any comfortable position to play games. The weight of 95g is also very light for VR, without the cumbersome feeling of wearing VR for a long time.
The BT-30C, as a key entertainment AR glasses, can well meet my entertainment needs. The price of 4188 yuan on JD is much cheaper than other AR smart glasses. Is it boring to stay at home for a long time? Try this cost-effective Epson AR glasses. The head mounted cinema allows you to watch plays, movies and games in any position! It's so easy to stay at home and travel around the world!
