Smart Glasses (Display) Head mounted Viture Pro neckband with heavily modded Xreal Air 1s
Didn't like the feel of something hanging on my neck and the pro neckband isnt heavy at all, so just removed the metal bar for the collar and 3D printed a quick hard mount using a rubber band for tension.
The Air 1s are stripped down to the bare essentials with a 3d printed nose bracket and flip up light blocker. I actually love the air ones with this set up. It is super light.
The downside of of a set up like this is that is tailored for only one person. For example, the light blocker provides maximum peripheral vision because it is sized so that just covers the screens with like a 1 mm of extra coverage, but it is specifically made for my ipd and the distance the glasses sits on my nose.
the upside is that you get a fully functional glasses running android 13 or windows with miracast and you can wear all day (well until the battery runs out , about 4 hrs) without worrying about wires. With a button press, you can turn off the glasses and it's just like wearing a very lightly tinted sunglasses

AR Glasses & HMDs Looking for advice between AR/XR/VR (Meta, RayNeo, XReal, Viture)
Hello everybody! First post in this reddit here but been looking through the entire topic for a long time.
I'm planning to change my entire gaming setup. Only problem is that with the huge landscape of AR/XR/VR devices. I've looked into the Meta Quest 3, the RayNeo Air 3S, the XReal One Pros (upcoming) and the VITURE Pro XR but I can't seem to really make a decision on what I really think fits best to me.
My first priority, first and farmost, is low-latency gaming. I want to use the device for 8+ hours a day to play games, preferrably at 90-120Hz refreshrate. I am able to give up widescreen 21:9 or 32:9 for 16:9 if everything else fits it, but that would be a super plus point.
Additionally, I also play VR games from time to time. I have a Quest 2 at home that I use whenever my fianceè and I want to play some VR games together, and that takes some time too.
I've seen that with a Quest 3 you can use a holo strap or a open facial interface so that you can still be aware of the surroundings, but the only thing making me feel worried is the comfort levels after 8+ hours of using them. Even with all the weight, the skin marks and all. But the plus in it, is that I can also connect them wirelessly.
With the XReal One Pro I saw that you can decently use them for VR, arbeit a bit janky, but I saw that they have widescreen support and support 120Hz and have the biggest FoV of all of them. Think it's 57 degrees. But they are the most expensive of the bunch. But I saw that you can anchor the screen down to a point and it stays there which is really nice.
With the VITURE Pro XRs they are more affordable, but I've heard bad things about it too. When it comes to the RayNeos, just like the VITURE Pro XRs, they lack 3DoF and I heard that both can introduce quite the motion sickness or eye strain given that you cant really anchor the screen for comfort.
I also like sleeping with the devices on. While watching a movie with my fianceè or just relaxing and playing games from the bed. So I think that comfort wise the AR/XR glasses could be better for that use case. It's just that I cant really freely move around the house if I have to grab something.
I can't really seem to progress with my decision, so I would really appreciate some help and I would be very thankful if I would hear you guys' point of view.
My biggest priorities is long-time gaming in 8+ hours and preventing long-term eye strain, not being bothersome, all while keeping latency low as possible. The rest is very much adaptable.
Im really looking forward to hear what you guys think! Have a nice day and if you have any questions that would narrow things down or give a better suggestion, I'd be free. My budget for those is max 700$.

AR Glasses & HMDs iTourTranslator AR glasses
Has anybody tried using this AR glasses by a company called iTourTranslator? ive seen theyre tiktoks and im very intrigued by it, especially one where it was shown to have a feauture to translate written words. I have a lot of foreign books in another language that im trying to read, so having this glasses will definitely help. Also, Is there any other AR glasses or VR device that has the same ability to translate live written words ?

Building Blocks Cellid announces the release of "Cellid Precision Fit Lenses" for next gen AR Glasses with Diopter Correction
Cellid Inc., a leading developer of AR display technology and spatial recognition engines, today announced the launch of "Cellid Precision Fit Lenses," a new lens that meets the need for diopter correction functionality as the AR glasses market grows. These innovative lenses seamlessly integrate diopter correction with advanced light field control1, enhancing visual clarity and overall usability. By significantly improving image quality and comfort, Cellid Precision Fit Lenses mark a major step forward in making AR glasses more accessible and practical for everyday use.
It is estimated that more than half of the world's population wear glasses2, and the ability to correct vision when using AR glasses is a key factor in their widespread adoption. Leveraging its proprietary optical simulation and production technologies, Cellid developed AR glasses lenses (waveguide method) that are as thin and light as ordinary glasses lenses while providing clear images. In response to customer requests and potential needs, Cellid has now engineered "Cellid Precision Fit Lenses" with a vision correction function that responds to customer requests and potential needs.
Key features of Cellid Precision Fit Lenses
- Diopter correction function: Diopter adjustment allows you to see objects in the real world clearly for a more comfortable and immersive AR experience.
- Light field control function: Optimizes image clarity by dynamically adjusting the optical distance of AR images across usage scenarios
- Ease of mounting on AR glasses: Particularly when paired with Cellid's full-lamination AR glasses lenses, these lenses can be easily fitted to AR glasses at conventional optical shops.
The Light Field Control function allows the user to fine-tune the viewing distance of the AR image by selecting the appropriate lens to be worn. For example, in a worksite environment, if users need to perform close-range work while referring to AR image manuals or work videos, they can wear Cellid Precision Fit Lenses optimized for their specific working distance, ensuring that AR visuals align seamlessly with their real-world tasks. This customization enhances clarity, precision, and overall comfort, providing a comfortable AR-assisted work experience.
Technical issues in development and future development
The main components of AR glasses—the lens (waveguide) and the diopter correction lens—have a structural contradiction, as the former is flat while the latter is curved. Additionally, several challenges must be addressed to make diopter correction lenses suitable for AR glasses practical, such as the increased edge thickness when conventional spherical lenses are designed to meet required strength standards.
Cellid has developed its proprietary SCL technology (Small base Curved Lens technology) to address these issues, leading to the commercialization of Cellid Precision Fit Lenses. The company continues to refine its design and manufacturing processes and plans to begin providing samples of an improved, thinner model in late April this year.
Comments from Satoshi Shiraga, CEO, Cellid
The new "Cellid Precision Fit Lenses" will significantly enhance the practicality of AR glasses, making immersive AR experiences more accessible for everyday use. We believe that by enabling a wide range of people to use AR glasses on a daily basis, their use will accelerate in diverse fields, regardless of industry, including manufacturing, education, retail, and entertainment. We will continue to contribute to the expansion of the AR market by leveraging our strengths in AR glasses design and manufacturing technologies centered on WaveGuide, as well as software technologies such as spatial recognition, while working with partners with whom we can grow together."
