How does Vuzix Control and Connect work?
It connects the smart glasses wearer to Microsoft Teams and Google Meet as a participant.
That sounds simple, how does that aid smart glasses deployments?
- If you connect using Microsoft Teams or Google Meets Media Stream (aka File Sharing link)
- You disable the very nature of the Vuzix smart glasses practicality, hands free voice commands to zoom in, out, use the torch light APP.
- You also prevent scaling the Smart Glasses and every Remote Expert use case be it remote trainer, remote teacher, remote inspection, remote triage.
- You also damage the core functionality of the smart glasses "see what I see"
- Just because you used the wrong way to connect to the smart glasses.
Scaling Vuzix Smart Glasses

- You unlock the productivity gains of hands free operation

That journey has several levels we can help with
Three of the five ways to scale Smart Glasses adoption are unlocked immediately and we can help with the other two:
- Using AI to deliver company or project based information to smart glasses wearers
- Using the power of 3D collaboration with Microsoft Mesh and smart glasses
Smart Glasses and AI

- Using Vuzix Smart Glasses voice commands retrieve all or a section of those documents for the smart glasses wearer
- Using a simple voice command
- The process takes mere days to set up with simple professional services
- And then you access the data by paying a small monthly subscription
