ODG's R-7 are the world's most advanced Smart Glasses featuring stunning ultra-transparent 3D stereoscopic displays and packed with innovative technologies in a small, light and sleek design. R-7 requires no external computing or other support and delivers an unparalleled user experience of display clarity, on-board processing power and system accuracy. The Glasses offer gaming, Augmented Reality, and simulate a floating 65-inch HDTV. "ODG's Smart Glasses deliver crystal clear audio visual quality perfect for showing Paramount content," said Joan Filippini, Paramount's SVP, Non-Theatrical Distribution. "While wearing ODG's glasses, airline passengers can now watch both 2D and 3D movies and receive an unforgettable experience. This will be a compelling element in the future of in-flight entertainment." ODG will be located at booth #335.
