As the Coronavirus-led pandemic has locked us inside our homes, we have seen people get extra creative in recent times. Similarly, the recent mandatory lockdowns proved to be quite fruitful for the electrical engineer and product designer, Sam March who likes to build electrical gadgets from scratch in his leisure time. After making a smartwatch last year, the guy made a GPS-enabled smart glass from scratch this time around.
The homemade smart-glass comes with its own iOS app which March developed by himself. And whenever he needs to reach a location while enjoying the view, he just opens up the app, feeds the destination in it, and wears his smart glass. So, with the destination fed in the app, he does not even have to take out his phone from the pocket.
You can check out the working of the smart wearable in the video below.
March worked on this project for a pretty long time. He developed every component of the smart-wearable, from building the frames to designing the circuit boards. And as it is open-source, even you can build your own smart glass using his materials on Github and the awesome step-by-step picture-documentation on Imgur.
