our Tac-Eye video eyewear product sales increased 393% to $742,934 for the quarter and Consumer Video Eyewear product sales grew 11% to $1,221,392, accounting for over 59% of sales, the first time that Consumer was more than 50% of our sales”, said Paul Travers, President and Chief Executive Officer.

As the 3D boom continues, Vuzix sales are likely to grow as consumers realise that video glasses provide the ultimate immersion 3D experience (and at a fraction of the cost of expensive 3D screens).  Sales will be further boosted by the imminant arrival of the Wrap 920AR – the world’s first augmented reality glasses.

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.

The effect of watching a 3D game or movie on these glasses provides for a truly immersive experience that even watching Avatar at the cinema can’t quite match.

I have been waiting for this release for quite some time as when I tried the set before these I was far from convinced. These do the job wonderfully, the size of screen is excellent and the sound is tremendous! These are also fully set up for 3D and I am eager to see if they do as good a job as they do 2D. Teamed up with an iPhone and either the iPlayer or any DVD or music video they offer a superb portable large screen option.

The only criticism if any is in the design, initially I thought the fact that they do not fit your face like a pair of normal glasses was a drawback but on further usage I can quite easily walk around my house have dinner, make tea ect whilst watching whatever I wish to watch.

I rate this product very nearly as highly as my iPhone and that is I can assure you is quite some endorsement. B E A Utifull!

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?
