The NSION NSC3 platform pulls in real-time media streams, including data and HD video, from any number of sources to be shared between team members and displayed on Vuzix smart glasses for heads-up and hands-free situational awareness. Vuzix and NSION are currently conducting joint demonstrations of this solution.
“NSION is excited about the relationship with Vuzix as their smart glasses technology combined with the NSION video broadcasting and management platform can address many applications, serving multiple vertical markets and in certain applications possibly help save lives,” says Brett Johnson, North America channels director of NSION.
“Our smart glasses continue to be integrated into high performance next-generation systems such as this robust solution from NSION,” says Paul Travers, president and CEO of Vuzix. “We are excited to work with them to help support a broad adoption of their NSC3 platform by an expansive list of customers and agencies.”
