Epson has made headway in the wearable technology field with the unveiling of Moverio BT-200, its unique binocular. These are see-through Android powered smart glasses and were first unveiled to European developers at Droidcon Berlin.
Having developed its first generation of smart glasses in 2011, Epson has made great strides forward with the latest model.
Epson also took the opportunity to showcase applications created by developers that have already started developing for Moverio, including Imaginary Computer, Metaio and Wikitude. Attendees got to see what the device has to offer and even give suggestion son future applications.
Valerie Riffaud-Cangelosi, senior manager at Epson Europe, commented: “In the same way that smart devices presented new opportunities when they were launched a decade ago, the Moverio BT-200 is setting new boundaries, allowing Android developers to take applications to the next level.
“We believe Moverio has the potential to offer much more than any tablet or smart device, and presents an opportunity to change the way the world consumes information and content. But to achieve this, we need the expertise and creative minds of the Android community to help us develop applications that make the most of our product’s revolutionary technology,†she added
The Moverio BT-200 will be available across Europe from June.
