AR/Computer Glasses

A fully custom augmented reality system built from the ground up. The AR/Computer Glasses combine a lightweight wearable display with chord-based glove input, allowing hands-free interaction through finger combinations mapped to a full character set.

The optical system uses collimating lenses to focus a micro OLED display at optical infinity, creating a heads-up overlay that doesn't strain the eyes. The glasses connect via Bluetooth Low Energy to an iPhone, which handles the heavy compute — running AI models, processing camera input, and managing the glove's chord interpreter.

Key innovations include a colorblindness correction mode that applies real-time color filters through the display pipeline, and an AI assistant layer that can process what the wearer sees and respond through the HUD.

The glove input system uses an ESP32 microcontroller with capacitive touch sensors on each finger. Chord combinations (multiple fingers pressed simultaneously) map to characters, numbers, and commands — similar to a stenotype but designed for wearable use.
