Epson Partners with DJI to Create AR Smart Glasses Solutions for Piloting UAS

Epson, providers of the Moverio^® augmented reality (AR) smart eyewear platform, today announced a partnership with DJI, the world’s leading maker of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), to create new solutions for the Epson Moverio smart glasses and DJI’s suite of products and software development kit (SDK) that enhance the safety, productivity and capabilities of UAVs for hobbyists and professionals alike.

As one of the first initiatives of the partnership, DJI will optimise the DJI GO app for the Epson Moverio BT-300 AR smart glasses, shipping late Q4.  With the app and the Moverio glasses, drone pilots will be able to see crystal clear, transparent first person views (FPV) from the drone camera while simultaneously maintaining their line of sight with their aircraft. The DJI GO app works with the DJI Phantom, Inspire and Matrice series flying platforms as well as the Osmo handheld gimbal and camera.
