We have already discussed some interesting VR or AR glasses. But what is not yet available is a proper mixed reality system. However, the American company Stereolabs is now set to realise this.<\/p>\n
Now, before we take a closer look, here is a brief explanation of what mixed reality glasses are. It's not that complicated. VR glasses place the user in the centre of a completely computer-generated world in which they can move around. With augmented reality glasses, on the other hand, you see the real world and computer-generated objects are displayed in it. The user can then interact with these. What mixed reality glasses do is a mixture. They record the real world with a camera and display it on a screen, creating a photorealistic 3D model of the real world. We can move around freely as we would in reality and other objects similar to the AR glasses are also integrated. This allows a much larger field of vision and the possibility to change reality if desired.<\/p>\n
Stereolabs uses its expertise in the field of 3D cameras. With the ZED, Stereolabs has developed a 3D camera that allows the environment to be scanned up to 20 metres in 2K (2 x Full HD). The camera works with two sensors. This data can then be integrated and processed in all standard 3D programmes. This opens up fascinating possibilities. This technology is now also being used for the mixed reality glasses \"Linq\". The first devices for developers will be delivered at the beginning of 2017. A consumer version is to follow later, which will also be able to work without a cable.<\/p>\n
