Keeping up a reputable track of innovation as one of the world’s leading technological enterprises, Xiaomi has made headway in the field of wearable devices by introducing its newest offering: the Xiaomi Smart Glasses.
While wearable gadgets have been on the rise in the past years, the conventional unwieldy iterations of smart glasses that have come before are greatly outclassed by Xiaomi’s lightweight design that packs advanced MicroLED optical waveguide technology into what seems to be an ordinary pair of specs.
By rising to the challenge of creating a wearable device that perfectly marries form and function, Xiaomi’s tech experts were able to integrate all the necessary components into a device that shows the future right before your eyes. While it is capable of performing a range of functions, it maintains a classy look.
At merely 2.4mm x 2.02mm, the nearly rice grain-sized display chip of the Xiaomi Smart Glasses is able to fit perfectly into a simple frame, and through MicroLED imaging technology Xiaomi’s innovative developers made the most efficient component choice as MicroLEDs are not only compact, but also possess stunning display quality and lifespans as it utilizes individually lit pixels similar to that of OLEDs.
Through an ultra-efficient monochrome display solution, just enough light is allowed into the intricate optical construction of the device even under intense sunlight, and because of the optical waveguiding technology present, the light is refracted at 180° then safely transmitted via the microscopic grating structure into the human eye at a brightness of up to 2 million nits, all within a single lens.
Beyond displaying crucial information at eye-level, the Xiaomi Smart Glasses are more than just a supplementary screen for your smartphone, as it makes use of 497 components to push curated notifications into sight, while also being capable of other useful functions.
Because it would be quite unsightly to have every single device notification displayed at once, only the most urgent ones are shown by the Xiaomi Smart Glasses such as messages from key contacts, smart home alarms, and work affiliated apps.
Furthermore, users are able to take advantage of navigation and call functions without taking their eyes off of the road, capture images with the built-in 5MP camera, and even translate text in real time either through the camera or audio via the device’s microphone.
Adding in a strong, quad-core ARM processor, smooth touch pad, reliable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connection modules, an Android operating platform, and lasting battery, the Xiaomi Smart Glasses have all essentials covered while maintaining a lightweight, elegant look.
While yet to be released into the mass market, the Xiaomi Smart Glasses are a concept device that have pushed the engineering mindset to fruitful innovation, and show immense potential for future, everyday use.
