Vuzix Wrap 1200AR glasses

We saw Vuzix shift to a more Google Glass-esque set of smart glasses at CES in January, but it looks like it’s not about to abandon the more traditional wrap-around headsets it’s been churning out year after year. The company’s latest is the Wrap 1200AR, which is a lot like its Wrap 1200VR headset, but with a focus on augmented reality instead of virtual reality. That means you’ll get two (VGA) cameras mounted on the front to capture stereoscopic video of your surroundings, along with a pair of displays (852 x 480 each) to view that video — augmented or otherwise — in 3D. As with the Wrap 1200VR, the glasses also come equipped with head-tracking technology, but they don’t come cheap. These will set you back a hefty $1,499, and are available to order now.
