LILYGO T-Glass is an exciting new platform for hobbyists and developers looking to delve into the world of smart glasses. Driven by a chip ESP32-S3, these smart glasses boast an impressive feature set that rivals commercial options like Google Glass 2, but with one key advantage: open source support.
The T-Glasses have a 1.1 inch full color screen, achieved through an ingenious combination of a prism and a JD9613 LTPS AMOLED panel. While the original panel resolution is 294 x 126 pixels, the usable display area is 126 x 126 pixels due to the prism technology. Don't let the resolution fool you: this is a developer platform, and the priority is functionality over pixel perfection.
The real power behind the T-Glass comes from its Bosch BHI260AP sensor. This artificial intelligence sensor always-on and self-learning includes a 6-axis IMU (inertial measurement unit) and a 32-bit MCU (microcontrol unit) for processing data. This translates into capabilities like fitness tracking, precise motion capture, pedestrian positioning, and even machine learning analytics.
One of the biggest advantages of T-Glass is its extensive software support. LILYGO offers a treasure trove of examples in its GitHub repository, covering everything from motion tracking to battery monitoring. These features, along with features like a real-time clock, touch button control, and voice activity detection, make it easier than ever for developers to start creating innovative applications for T-Glass.
