the mainstream consumer, defense and low vision markets -- is

Six Degree-of-Freedom Tracker, which allows for accuracy of roll
pitch and yaw and also X, Y and Z positioning in 3D space.

"The Wrap 920AR offers the world's only sunglass styled Augmented
Reality experience" Travers says. "his state-of-the-art video
eyewear, offers consumers an AR solution only available in handheld
devices to date, merging the real world with the digital in a pair of
glasses makes for world changing experiences from industry to gaming."

x 480 resolution, a 60 fps frame rate and USB connectivity. It's
