Level smart glasses: Tracking steps and doing good
Overview
Level, the next generation sensor-enabled eyewear is produced by VSP Global in partnership with University of Southern California. This is not a fitbit, but a mature, second-gen approach to wearables. Level with its tracking technology used in the glasses can count steps, calories burned, distance, and total activity time via an accompanying smartphone app.
Real-time calculation & display
Easy data sharing on social media
GPS-enabled location tracking
Works even in offline mode
Challenges
- VSP wanted a solution with highly interactive UI.
- Along with it they wanted to enable a real-time calculation and display the user data through graphs. And wanted that the app should work even when there is no internet connection.
- VSP also wanted to enable communication in the background within the glass frames along with location tracking.
Solutions
- As the rockstar of designs, we too created a custom UI with lots of high-end animation and material UI.
- We achieved real-time calculation and fitness data display in graphs through server-side API integration. We used data synchronization to display data in offline mode when there is no internet.
- We enabled location tracking through GPS. And allowed communication in background with bluetooth-enabled (BLE 4.0) frame.
How about smart glasses that adjust your lenses, now that’s smart! I would like to be able to go from reading to distance to sunglasses to vision strength.
