Epson might be known for its printers, but as of today it has joined the club of companies selling a pair of smart glasses. The company is now accepting orders for its Moverio BT-200 glasses, which retail for $700.

The glasses, which are better suited to business applications than individuals, project a screen in front of the wearer’s eyes that Epson said is equivalent to an 80-inch TV. Virtual images can be displayed among the real objects in the wearer’s field of view.
