I have been putting together my own google glass as a side project at home for a while now. At the time, I didn't look much into AR displays, but I did order a VuFine: https://www.vufine.com/ https://www.vufine.com/ - a head mounted 720p screen. This is coupled to a raspberry pi + pijuice UPS
This, coupled with a raspi night vision camera attached to my head, fakes "AR" since I can see in the vufine what the camera sees (though AR was not really the goal for this version, but eventually). I am using SDL to render items on top of the video feed (for instance, using opencv to find and put boxes around faces).
Additionally, I want to get a range sensor and place that looking behind me, and render something in the display to give me an idea of what items are behind me, and how close. I am thinking about rendering a circle from metal gear solid 4 [0] to give me an impression of where things are behind me, and how close they are (greater amplitude to indicate how close something is)
I definitely want to get an AR setup, as I feel like that would be best. I will check out what options are link in this thread.

- cmsimike 8y agoI have also considered building OpenSimpleLidar [0] and putting that on top of my head (I also use snips.ai on my ar build to control things by voice, so i have [1] this headset, which allows me to attach things to the top of it) so that I can generate real time images of my environment, and have it display a map, like in a video game, with my location. I haven't got to that part yet - too many other projects :( [0] https://github.com/iliasam/OpenSimpleLidar/ https://github.com/iliasam/OpenSimpleLidar/ [1] https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CQ8CB8W/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CQ8CB8W/ref=oh_aui_sear...
