NASA cooperates with smart glasses companies to use virtual reality in space On March 12, according to foreign media reports, NASA announced on Wednesday that it would cooperate with Osterhout Design Group (hereinafter referred to as ODG), a smart glasses research and development company, to explore how to use virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technology in future space missions. ODG has spent the past six years creating a new generation of smart eyewear devices for businesses and the consumer market.
The company has invested $60 million to transplant a large amount of cutting-edge technology used in military programs into a consumer-grade eyewear product that weighs just 5 ounces. ODG hopes that the future of smart glasses will be fully equivalent to the functionality and experience of tablets. ODG smart glasses look like high-quality sunglasses from the outside. The device has built-in positioning sensors that record where the wearer is, where they are looking, and how they move, so they can provide an accurate experience in AR and VR.
NASA's collaboration with ODG is expected to focus on Assisted Reality software technologies.
This includes: eye checks, remote on-site guidance, real-time instrument or equipment marking, and more. The use of virtual reality technology will allow astronauts to become more efficient and accurate during long space missions. Founded in 1999 as a technology product incubator, ODG has now devoted all its resources to developing wearable safety and first aid devices for businesses, businesses and consumers.
ODG currently employs about 80 people.
