So this is called Inmo Air 3, and it is apparently the world's first all-in-one AR glasses
0:07
integrating 1080p full-color waveguide display. What it's going to do is keep whatever you're watching private
0:14
So like somebody trying to peek in from the side is not going to see what you're watching
0:18
on an airplane or something. This is what Will tells me. And then I have to ask Will, well, Will, what the hell are you watching on an airplane
0:25
To which he doesn't tell me. He just nods slowly. He just goes like this
0:28
Ooh, alright, so kind of a nice box in a box situation
0:34
This is a solid box, one box to the next. Never Just Glasses, Inmo Air 3
0:41
Ooh, look at this. Nicely done. These are the glasses? Oh no
0:48
These are the lenses. Sunglass, are they mirrored? Like these must clip on with a little nose piece here
0:56
Okay. USB-C to USB-A, charge cable, tiny little magnetic attachment point to USB
1:08
This must be a remote. I think it's gonna be like a touch pad. Cool
1:12
It also looks like this is where you're gonna have your power switch and your type C connection
1:17
Ring three. Is this another option for controlling it? I think it is
1:22
Wow, that's different. So this is a little remote option that you can kind of wear
1:27
which is nice. Drop it if you fall asleep on the airplane watching your content
1:31
It just sort of stays latched on there. That's cool. Here are the glasses. Well, you keep this
1:36
Like, this is where you store them. Hey, you keep that. Look at that. What? Store it flat if you need to
1:41
The power of origami, brother. You know what I'm saying? Do you
1:46
Whoa. These are units. Damn, dude. What kind of displays are these
1:54
Look at the lines in them. Those are... Well, I know. their full color waveguide displays Look at that that wild Obviously these are fairly large Yeah they not at the same scale as like a Vision Pro or something but they substantial So there some buttons on here
2:08
I mean, here's a Type-C, connect the remote, power switch. We've got a couple buttons over here
2:12
which are most likely volume. And then of course we can get our little shade on there
2:18
which I think you would probably want. Well, listen, that's futuristic, all right
2:23
I'll tell you what. People are gonna know, like they're gonna know you're watching something
2:26
But like at the same time they might be intrigued. They're like What are you doing with those right there
2:31
You tell them about your waveguide One thing I will say is it's not like cumbersome in the sense of the the comfort level on your face
2:39
They're not that heavy. They're definitely not on the same scale as like a VR headset. So
2:43
They're not gonna be as hot. I'm curious what these displays are gonna look like though. All right
2:48
Let's try some Xbox here. Wow Let's go off-road here. Look at this dust pile
2:56
Oh boy. Well, yeah, I mean, like, if you're on an airplane doing this, holy
3:07
So this is what the interface looks like for me. I have a list of apps over here
3:11
Chrome, file browser, the Play Store is here. So here's an example of a web page
3:17
NASA's Web Space Telescope Observer's Interstellar Comet. Now in this case, I am just running natively because we're running Android, right
3:27
Now I notice as well there's a camera in here. Let's just see. Oh, there we go. So now I'm looking at Will
3:32
You can see the camera is in portrait orientation. Maybe I'll record a clip
3:36
Oh, we're recording now. There we go. Hello. This is kind of interesting because I can see Will because of the fact that the overlay is semi-transparent
3:45
But then I also see him in the recording of the clip that I'm doing right here. There he is
3:49
That's him. That's Will. Got Otis down there. Otis is just cooling off on the concrete floor
3:54
Good job Otis. It's tough to show you because in this case, the screen recording is exclusively recording
3:59
the video portion of what I seeing but ultimately I seeing my environment with the overlay of the video like any kind of augmented reality setup So you can take still images you can record video and of course audio as well
4:13
And you can basically do whatever you do on Android natively in here without the need
4:17
for any kind of extra hardware. Now, if you click on the screen casting button here, you can see that you can cast either from iOS or from Android
4:25
So let's go ahead and try and screen share from this laptop now, this is a MacBook, cool
4:29
And of course, my input now has switched to this trackpad and I have a beautiful overlay and the ability to scan
4:36
And from a productivity perspective too, not just to watch content, obviously. In this case, now I can open all my regular creative apps
4:43
windows and so forth. Full screen, looks pretty good. Turn up the volume a little bit here
4:50
Oh, how satisfying is this, Will? Little lawn care satisfaction, what do you say
4:56
Are you taking care of your lawn these days or what? Is it tiled in
5:03
Wow. Wow. But you can see there, there is the advantage when it comes to an augmented scenario
5:11
I can still see this screen. So I could just dive in and change my settings
5:16
And then the other display is sort of up around here. So I can maneuver my point of view and simultaneously look at something in the real world and a digital overlay at the same time
5:26
And then obviously the other component here, which is unique, is the fact that this is the world's first
5:30
These glasses are integrating 1080p full-color waveguide displays, and this is the first time it's been done
5:37
So you can use these when you're kind of off-grid, too, in places where you normally wouldn't have any kind of entertainment or display
5:43
So traveling, I mentioned on an airplane. But even if you're, like, camping or fishing or something, I could be wearing these on the beach because they kind of look like sunglasses
5:54
Now I wear contact lenses, but if you wear glasses, prescription glasses, you can actually also have these
6:00
done in a prescription version, so you can stick prescription lenses directly in them
6:04
So each of these 1080p Sony Micro OLED displays are capable of 600 nits of brightness and this is gonna have an advantage when viewing outdoors Obviously the intention here is that you can use these outdoors
6:16
and they're bright enough to do so. You get a 36-degree ultra-wide field of view and up to 150-inch virtual screen experience
6:24
Kind of reminds me of some sort of transparency mode on headphones
6:29
how you're trying to merge what's happening in the real world with whatever content it is you're enjoying
6:34
You might not want to be completely shut off. Like the VR headset is kind of operating
6:38
like noise canceling, like just shut out the world completely. And then when you have the AR set up
6:44
it's like, no, I can still see you, talk to you. I will know what's going on around me if I want to
6:48
but then I have my content overlaid. The camera that's on the front that I was playing around with
6:53
is actually a 16 megapixel ultra wide. You can shoot some outdoor content
6:58
It has a Snapdragon XR processor, 8 gigs of RAM, 128 gigs of storage
7:03
The weight comes in at 119 grams with a 666 milliamp hour battery
7:08
I still think, however, like obviously that's an experience you can have with the video games
7:13
but I think the core target is more on the productivity side
7:17
and the ability to have a really large display wirelessly on your face
7:22
So that could be an extension of your laptop OS or if you work mostly in the cloud on the web
7:29
depending on whatever it is that you use for productivity. Like with the built-in Android
7:33
and the ability to launch a fairly smooth Chrome browser, you could probably get things done like that too
7:39
without the need to be staring at a phone or feeling as though you're lacking
7:43
comprehensive input options. So if you pair this thing with a keyboard and mouse
7:49
you now have like a full-on computer style input. And then obviously the lack
7:53
of having any kind of cable connection. So having everything happen wirelessly
7:57
so you're not feeling tethered. That's another unique aspect to this device
8:02
compared to some of the other ones that I've tried
