Input devices




Head-mounted displays are not designed to be workstations, and traditional input devices such as keyboards do not support the concept of smart glasses. Input devices that lend themselves to mobility and/or hands-free use are good candidates, for example:

  • Touchpad or buttons
  • Compatible devices (e.g. smartphones or control unit)
  • Speech recognition
  • Gesture recognition
  • Eye tracking
  • Brain–computer interface
