K-Glass with Augmented Reality - Low-powered, high-speed head-mounted display with augment reality chip

韓国科学技術院(KAIST)の研究者が開発中のHMD(ヘッドマウントディスプレイ)のデモビデオ。製品化の予定はまだ明確ではない。認識精度はかなり良さそうだ。店舗などでの利用イメージなど、消費者向けの利用提案としては参考になる。




Walking around the streets searching for a place to eat will be no hassle when a head-mounted display (HMD) becomes affordable and ubiquitous. Researchers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) developed K-Glass, a wearable, hands-free HMD that enables users to find restaurants while checking out their menus. If the user of K-Glass walks up to a restaurant and looks at the name of the restaurant, today's menu and a 3D image of food pop up. The Glass can even show the number of tables available inside the restaurant. K-Glass makes this possible because of its built-in augmented reality (AR) processor.
