Things to Consider When Buying a VR-bril
This differs from Virtual Reality (VR). In virtual reality, you replace reality with a virtual world, but in Assisted Reality, you enhance the real world with information. And again, this is slightly different from Augmented Reality (also abbreviated as AR). In Augmented Reality, you add something to the real world, such as an image or hologram of someone. Assisted Reality is more focused on sharing information. For instance, an Assisted Reality-bril often comes with a high-quality built-in camera that allows someone else to remotely view the ongoing work. In this blog, we will list the best Assisted Reality glasses.
RealWear Navigator 500
The RealWear Navigator 500 is distinguished by its exceptionally high-resolution camera. With a resolution of no less than 48 megapixels, it is possible to take high-quality photos, film up to 1080p at 60 fps, and zoom in without significant loss of quality. Additionally, the RealWear Navigator 500 has a IP66-certificering, making the glasses suitable for use in (heavy) industrial environments. The Navigator 500 also has a very well-functioning voice-control, allowing it to be used 100% hands-free. This is particularly useful when the user is engaged in fieldwork and doesn’t have their hands free.
Vuzix M400
The Vuzix M400 is a particularly lightweight Assisted Reality-brillen. Weighing only 190 grams, it is one of the lightest glasses on the market. This greatly enhances wearing comfort. The Vuzix M400 is easy to wear for extended periods. The built-in camera allows for filming up to 4K-kwaliteit and taking 12.8 MP photos. The Vuzix M400 runs on Android 8.1. This makes it relatively easy to install your own applications (APK files) on the glasses. Additionally, Vuzix has a complete library where many standard applications can be downloaded.

Microsoft HoloLens 2
The Microsoft HoloLens 2 is essentially an Augmented/Mixed Reality-headset but also possesses the qualities that make a good Assisted Reality-headset. The software from Microsoft allows you to get started with Remote Assisteasily. Besides the possibilities of Assisted Reality, the HoloLens 2 also allows for more extensive work with Augmented and Mixed Reality. For example, the HoloLens 2 features a depth camera that enables the complete 3D-ruimte of a room to be scanned. This allows for realistic loading of a hologram or 3D-afbeeldingen into the space.
Google Glass 2
The Google Glass 2 is a smart, lightweight Assisted Reality-brillen. The frame is made of titanium, ensuring it’s comfortable to wear and can withstand a fair amount of rough handling. With the built-in Google Glass-scherm, users can obtain information in a niet-storende way. This screen, for instance, allows for giving instructions to the user from a distance. The Google Glass 2 can be operated via a button on the side but can also be controlled by voice command. Note that the Google Glass 2 is a development kit. This means there are few to no standard applications available for AR glasses. It is therefore recommended to first contact a software developer (or ) before purchasing a Google Glass 2-bril.one of our specialists
