Smart glasses for drone-Moverio BT300

When flying solo, and particularly when shooting video
rather than stills, you have to constantly shift your gaze
from the drone to the screen of your phone or tablet, to
check the shot or your flight data. Of course, you can go
fully immersive with FPV goggles and rely solely on this
view, but this option is really only practical for advanced
pilots, and should be only be attempted with the help of an
observer to keep a direct line of sight to the drone. However,
there is now some clever crossover technology that goes
some way to solving this problem.The glasses are connected by a cable to a touchpad which
houses an Android device, complete with the triangle, circle
and square buttons for back, home and recent (or history)
options. Effectively, you’re running an Android tablet with
the display floating in front of your eyes and the controls on
a touchpad fixed to your remote.
With this in mind, Epson has included a mounting
bracket that will allow secure attachment of the touchpad
onto a DJI Phantom or Inspire remote. Also included in the box is a selection of tinted clip-on lenses for the front of the
glasses.
