First Smart Eyewear To Use Waveguide Optical Technology - Nokia + Vuzix = M2000AR
2013年12月に、ロサンゼルスで開催された ウェアラブル技術展 にて、HMD製品の老舗「ビュージックス（R）社」は、「ノキア(R)」が開発した、導波路光学系の技術が搭載されたデバイスを発表した。 導波路光学系は、スマートグラスの中に光を移動させる革命的な新しい方法であり、ウェアラブルスマートデバイスで通常使用されてきた従来のプリズムベースの光学系の小型化、軽量化を図っているとのことだ。導波路光学系は、利用者にとってもはるかに広い視野角を提供するようだ。M2000ARという製品で体験できる。
