A 28-inch screen for a mobile phone ?
Scalar Corp, a Japanese manufacturer of optoelectronic equipment, has integrated its CyberDisplay 180K color-filter microdisplay into Scalar's Teleglass, the world's smallest video eyewear for video-on-the-go applications.
Connected to a mobile phone, portable DVD player or digital camera, Teleglass projects high- video on eyeglasses, creating a virtual 28-inch TV screen as viewed from seven feet away. This system has a switcher for the people to use dominant eye to watch video. The eyewear projects images in either the left or right eye, enabling the wearer to privately watch movies or TV, read text or view pictures without obstructing the other eye.
Weighing just five grams and easily attached to ordinary eyeglasses, the device is relatively inconspicuous compared to earlier generation video eyewear products.
