Project Summary
As technology is growing rapidly and integrating itself to all aspects of people’s life, designers and developers tried to provide a more pleasant experience of technology to people. One of the technology trends which aim to make life easier is wearable computing.
Inspired by Google glasses, we made a wearable prototype that can function quite similar to Google Glass. In this project, we will make a wearable extension that can work like Google glasses, and it will be used to send notifications of calls and messages received on mobile phones, and show time and date, all in front of wearer’s eye.
Project Objectives
Wearable computer glasses add needed and contextual information to what the wearer sees. For businesses, they provide a solution for people to access applications while keeping their hands free to work. The hardware cost is more effective and reasonable than Google glasses. As Google glasses are available at the price $1800, but our hardware cost is approximately $500.
Project Implementation Method
Smart- Glasses are the wearable computing device used as an extension, which can be attached to the spectacles or sunglasses of the wearer, and can be paired with Smart Phones, via Bluetooth. This extension contains an Arduino Micro-controller having ATmega328p microprocessor, which is programmed to connect with Smart-Phones through a Smart-phone application. A Bluetooth module, named HC-05 is interfaced with ATmega328p, which is used to connect with smart-phones. A battery / Re-chargeable battery of 5V is used as power supply for Smart-Glass. An SSD1306, 0.96” OLED display is interfaced with ATmega328p, which is used to display the data received from Smart-phones. Smart-Phone application is used to transmit data of the phone, i.e.; Date, Time, Notifications of Phone call and Text messages.
The following are the main steps that are implemented during the whole process:
1. Notifications Received.
2. Encoding.
3. Transmitting and Receiving.
4. Decode and Process.
5. Execution
Tools/Technology:
Following are the hardware required for this project:
1. Arduino Nano, (ATMega328p)
2. Battery (we have used 9V battery)
3. Bluetooth module (HC-05)
4. OLED display (SSD1306)
5. Wires for connection
6. Push Button
7. Toggle switch
8. Basic Frame (we made this frame using Sunmica Sheet, by remolding its shape using Solder iron)
Benefits of the Project
The smart glasses allow hands free interaction. It is light and comfortable to be allowing the user to focus on the task. Its screen is transparent and located above the user’s line of sight making it less distractive. Furthermore, it is based on Arduino and support by a large programming community. Nevertheless, possible interactions are limited, like on most other smart glasses. It is for general public use. User can see a notification on glasses when a call is coming on phone.
Visually impaired or deaf people can't hear the ringtone of mobile .It is very useful for such people.Frequent use of hand is less.
