Ask HN: Wich of the current AR Glasses would you consider to start developing

1 pointsby miriadisabout 10 years ago
Hi everyone. I want to start learning to developmet on Augmented Reality Glasses so I&#x27;m considering to buy the device first to start playing with it. I&#x27;m interested in full-angle-of-vision glasses, not cards-in-frame things like Google Glass, because one of my businesscases of interest is remote instruction.<p>Last week Sony Glasses were announced. They seem pretty basic to me in the visual section, but more stylish than Epson Moverio and other alternatives.<p>Features like colour or screen resolution are not critical to me, better times will come... I think developer API and manufacturer support and continuity are much more important as developer.<p>Which of the current AR Glasses do you consider is more suitable to start learning?<p>Thanks and regards.

None at the moment.<p>I have Google Glass and I am looking to sell it. The Sony ones look so terrible they&#x27;re not even worth mentioning. There isn&#x27;t anything worth developing an app for, if you&#x27;re aiming at consumer market.<p>If you want to instead target medical or something similar, then Google Glass could be a good choice, I guess, I know there were companies working in that niche.
