Hello
I have only used virtual reality glasses before, so my experience with AR glasses is limited. However, after reading an article about the new Superhexa Vision, I think the translating feature is fantastic, especially for travel. Though that model appears a little heavy, are there any other AR glasses that have built-in Google Translate functionality? It would be sufficient to use text-to-display; further voice translation would be great but not required.
The translating capability of the Superhexa Vision seems interesting for travel. Similar text-to-display translation functions are available in other AR eyewear, such as Google Glass, despite its potential weight. For similar features, look into products like Vuzix Blade or Microsoft HoloLens 2. While there are differences in voice translation, text translation is commonly offered across a range of AR glass devices.
Solos announced its Solos AirGo3 Smart Glasses that can translate languages in real-time. The smart glasses use the SolosTranslate platform to help break language barriers and foster better conversations across diverse linguistic backgrounds.
Thanks for sharing. I’ve also tried the Vuzix Blade AR glasses, and they work great for text translation. It is worth checking out for someone looking for something lighter than the Superhexa Vision.
Vuzix UltraLite. It has a lightweight waveguide system.
Google glasses are great and I hear the company has an improved version which is even better
using the use of augmented reality (AR) technology, real-time translations of written or spoken language are possible using AR glasses. The glasses pick up spoken language through built-in microphones, and the captured speech is sent to a translation engine, which translates the language in real-time. The translated text is projected onto the lenses of the AR glasses, allowing the user to see the translation superimposed on their field of vision also for the written text, the glasses use cameras and OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to detect and translate the text, which is then displayed similarly.
Google is working on their own prototype device. They have a video showing it, and it might include their Google Lens software. Whether they will succeed in launching this hardware product is uncertain. So, it might become a real thing eventually.
The prototype shown in the video doesn’t seem to be working yet. It looks more like an artist’s idea of what it could be, which is common in these augmented reality trailers. They haven’t shown exactly what they have developed so far.
I also recommend the Google translation glasses
