Re: Looking for color identifier Apps
The InVision glasses have six hours of battery life on regular usage. Whereas for example the horizon kit that Ira used didn’t even come close to having that much plus, the prior glasses that Ira used two types of course the Austria glasses and the first iteration of the Google glass, was only 2 1/2 hours, and the time it takes to charge is longer for all those devices however for the Envision glasses it doesn’t take long to charge because it uses USB see cable. The other stuff mentioned before only used USB micro cable or a magnetic cable like the prior Bose frames prior to the tempo for example.

RE: Looking for color identifier Apps
I’m sure the glasses will work for asking someone for help with color identification, but why waste the battery life of a very expensive piece of equipment to ask for help on something you can ask for help for free with the iPhone which has far better battery life? I saw the glasses at a friend’s house and I can see where some things might be better with them than with the iPhone for reading etc., however, for their price, I’ll stick with an iPhone. I could afford them, but I’ll put my money toward the next iPhone first.
