Join us Wednesday, September 18 as we talk about wearable technology. Believe it or not, the Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses aren’t a new concept! There have been head-mounted camera devices for years, and many of them are specifically designed for our community. Consider products like the Envision Glasses, the OrCam MyEye, or the ARx AI – all go on your head at eye level, and all send information to Ais to help with tasks like navigation, reading, and identification. What’s so special about these machines? What’s the difference between them? How well do they work? Are they worth getting? These are the questions that we’re answering on the Digital Treasure Chest this week!
