Vuzix Video Glasses are undoubtedly the most advanced video eyewear on the market today.  Vuzix video glasses enable you to view your own private cinema right before your eyes – on the train, in the park, or on your bed.  Vuzix video glasses are famed for their style as well as the high-tech optics that make them the most sought after in the world.  And all of these Vuzix glasses are capable of displaying 3D as well as 2D and form the equivalent of viewing a screen as wide as 67″ from a distance of 10 feet away.

What are Video Glasses?

Video glasses, also known as head-mounted displays (HMDs), personal media viewers, or simply video eyewear, allow the wearer to experience the illusion of watching a huge movie screen from the distance of a few feet away – yet in a device that is light and portable and fits around the eyes.  Understandably, video glasses have been seen as having huge attraction to commuters, long distance travellers, students away from home, or many others who need to be entertained in a way that does not annoy others.  Video glasses not only enable the wearer to watch movies in privacy but also to play video games.  Video glasses are also the perfect medium for viewing 3D films and playing 3D games – not only because glasses are needed anyway to experience 3D, but also because they enable the user to enjoy the full possibilities of total immersion and virtual reality that 3D can bring.

Despite their obvious attractions, until recently video glasses were not of sufficient quality to break into the consumer market.  This has changed dramatically with the introduction of the Vuzix iWear Wrap range.  So how do these video glasses work?
