- Nulitics and Wideum will join
Vuzix at MWC24 to demonstrate object recognition and AI-enabled
software solutions
ROCHESTER, N.Y., Feb. 23,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Vuzix®
Corporation (NASDAQ: VUZI), ("Vuzix" or, the "Company"), a
leading supplier of smart glasses and Augmented Reality (AR)
technology and products, today announced that the Company will be
showcasing its recently announced Vuzix Z100™ smart glasses at
Mobile World Congress Barcelona 2024 (MWC24) taking place
February 26-29 in Barcelona, Spain. Vuzix will be joined at
stand CS98 in Congress Square Hall at this event by Nulitics, an
independent software vendor (ISV), and Wideum, a remote service
technology company, who will be demonstrating solutions running on
Vuzix Shield™ smart glasses.
MWC Barcelona is one of the world's most influential exhibitions
for the connectivity industry. MWC24 will offer European customers
and prospective customers the opportunity to view and wear a
sampling of Vuzix' current family of smart glasses, which represent
some of the most powerful, lightweight and competitive smart
glasses to date.
Capturing positive media attention and accolades at CES 2024,
Vuzix Z100 smart glasses showcase several key capabilities
available through the Vuzix Ultralite OEM platform. Designed to
look and feel like a standard pair of eyeglass frames, the Vuzix
Z100 weighs in at 38 grams and doubles as an all-day wearable smart
assistant and notifications center, all hands-free. Vuzix will be
demoing several consumer experiences on the Z100, including social
media, fitness, directions, productivity, AI and communications
assist.
A Vuzix sports & fitness form factor model will also be on
display at MWC. This OEM configuration boasts the industry's only
content privacy guard, Vuzix Incognito, which inhibits forward
light leakage common among other waveguides in the industry, thus
preventing content being viewed on the glasses from being visible
to others. All Vuzix smart glasses can also be designed with
vision-correction technology built into the waveguide lens, driving
lightness and optical efficiency for the wearer.
In addition, Nulitics, with a focus on IoT 3D digital twins
visualization and simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM)
based machine learning, will be demonstrating its object
recognition and asset tagging software solution running on the
Vuzix Shield. The object recognition models are local to the device
and the solution integrates with remote assist/workflow platforms,
identifying parts of a machine and providing guided workflows or
visualizing real-time IoT and sensor data. More information about
Nulitics can be found at https://nulitics.com/. Wideum will
be demonstrating its software solution running on the Vuzix Shield
that recognizes faces and applies blurring to protect identities in
compliance with the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
privacy regulation. More information about Wideum can be found at
https://wideum.com/.
"Vuzix Z100 is just one configuration out of many in our array
of OEM options. It's light, fashionable and made to assist people
who want to be hands-free and stay constantly connected both in the
workplace and beyond. On the other hand, our sports form factor
features a more fitness-oriented look, and Incognito lenses among
other differences," says Paul
Travers, President and CEO of Vuzix. "Both glasses put all
the information you need to know right in your eye without losing
the flow of what you're doing."
Join Vuzix at Hall Congress Square Stand CS98 at Mobile World
Congress Barcelona 2024 (MWC24) from February 26-29.
