Intel’s Vault SmartGlasses Are A Modern Tech Breakthrough

Intel’s Vault glasses, are fashionable every day smart-glasses that projects information onto your retina as you go about your day. Intel has made glasses that somebody can put on and gets value without any of the negative impact of technology on their head.

Smartglasses..Not This Again.

While smart glasses are pretty far from a new invention. In the past, smart-glasses all come with bulky and invasive equipment attached. Cameras, added appendages, and microphones all making it look like nerdy, unsightly, stylish head gear . Intel’s new Vault glasses however, change the game with a streamline design and fashionable functional look. The glasses look exactly like regular eyeglasses and are available in various prescription lenses. Does this mean no more unwanted stares, dorky uncomfortable glasses that are a constant conversation focus. Yes it does.

Not Spy Glasses?

Intel’s Vault glasses are a whole new concept, they are not “Spy glasses”. No Creep camera, no button to push, no gesture area to swipe, no glowing LCD screen, no weird arm floating in front of the lens, no speaker, and no microphone. They look just like eyeglasses. They function like your prescription eyeglasses but you see a stream of information on what looks like a screen. That is no screen though, it’s actually being projected onto your retina. All of the Vaunt’s electronics are confined to a small area right above the ear. They respond to commands given via head nods.

The glasses are weighing in at just 2 ounces, very light , but that doesn’t mean it’s light on possibilities . The Vaunt packs a Mike Tyson like tech power punch with a processor, accelerometer, Bluetooth, and a compass. They have a laser that projects a tiny image directly onto the corner of your retina. This image acts as a screen, showing you notifications from your phone, news updates, directions, or daily reminders.

Final Thoughts

Intel has succeeded its goal to make wearable tech glasses without having a smartphone on your face. All of the Vaunt’s electronics are confined to a small area right above the ear. They respond to commands given via head nods,Everything from the ground up is designed to make the technology disappear. This all sounds great until you realize it’s a laser in your eye ball. How safe can a freakin laser to our retina be? Well the trust people at the FDA say it’s 100 percent safe to stare into this kind of laser for extended periods of time. Apparently this is such a low powered laser it’s at very bottom end of a class one laser. Good enough for me, where is the release form, I’ll sign it I’ll sign it right now. Release date or pricing has not been released yet.
