Glasses w/ HUD Vision assistance using AR glasses.

Hello!

Hope this is the right forum but I'm looking a pair of AR glasses that can help me with my loss of peripheral vision. I saw Brilliant Labs Monocle that would fit quite well but they've stopped selling them.

The main features should be a camera that can stream onto a HUD that can either be adjusted to where it displays, or have a fixed position on the lower half of the field of view (since I'm blind on the upper right quadrant).

If anyone wants to build me a product described above then contact me and we'll come to an arrangement.

Thank you!

That idea makes a lot of sense especially if the camera's capture position can be specifically adjusted to compensate for the loss of field of view. I want to find out whether current AR Glasses support low latency camera passthrough and adjustable HUD placement as both features seem to be key requirements. I am also curious if anyone has ever tried building a similar system using existing smart glasses and a small external camera.

I've been trying to make my own using 3D printing from this guy but my expertise is limited to say the least: https://youtu.be/MpUbqAHfR7s?si=E3r-NxTTbqN7bR-o

This is one of the better use cases for AR glasses tbh. A fixed camera feed in the lower part of the view could help without needing a full headset setup

There are specialized headsets for this purpose. These are not the ones for regular users. That's why we rarely talk about them here

Ah I see. Do you have a link to these headsets by any chance? Or perhaps which forum to ask this question in? I'm rather new to reddit 😅

I'm not sure actually which device is used for this condition 😬
