Vuzix Wins SBIR Phase II Award from the Office of Naval Research

2014-02-26 07:00 ET - News Release

ROCHESTER, N.Y., Feb. 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Vuzix Corporation (OTCQB: VUZI), a leading supplier of Video Eyewear and Smart Glasses products in the consumer, commercial and entertainment markets announced today that it had been awarded the remaining ~$75,000 Phase I Option and a ~$680,000 Phase II, Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) award from the Office of Naval Research. The SBIR entitled "Head Worn Display ("HWD") Augmented Reality for Military Training Applications" is to develop the thin see through waveguide based optics and display engines fitted in a pair of goggles that are low-cost and high-performance to superimpose computer generated information on an individual's view of the real world.

PHASE II of this SBIR will be to develop the optics and display engines and partner with Six15 Technologies to integrate those optics into a standard pair of goggles that will deliver high-performance imagery to superimpose computer-generated information on an individual's view of the real world. For simplicity, we will call this a Head Worn Display (HWD).

Augmented reality is a technology that places virtual computer-generated objects into a person's field of view. Placing virtual characters, objects, and effects in the real world has the potential to revolutionize training. Currently, one of the biggest challenges to using augmented reality technologies in dismounted applications is the head worn display. There is a need for augmented reality HWDs that have the form factor of sunglasses or ballistic goggles and can operate for hours without needing to be recharged. The commercial sector is rapidly developing augmented reality applications for smart phones, but a consumer grade HWD is needed for serious military training applications.

Follow-on phases of the award, which are expected to be valued at significantly higher dollar value, will develop field deployable solutions with larger field of views that can be put to work in the simulation and training needs of the US Navy. Paul Travers, President of Vuzix Corporation, stated, "The engineering team at Vuzix demonstrated an in-depth command of the technical and development challenges for the requirements of this award. Our technology showed the greatest innovation and the ability to provision displays to meet the see through and wide field of view requirements of the Navy's program."

Mr. Travers continued, "This system is based on an advanced optical waveguide version of Vuzix's see-through optics technology that enables high definition (HD) displays to be incorporated into very thin lenses similar to normal eyeglasses. Vuzix will be working with our partners Six-15 Technologies to integrate the display engines into existing goggles and looks forward to moving this effort to potential phase III procurement program with our partners at Six-15 Technologies."

Positionieren sich da vielleicht so langsam einige Leute für die Q-Zahlen im März?

Heute ging es ja schon bis 3,25 $ hoch, dann wieder runter und nun kleine Schritte hoch.

http://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/VUZI/quote  

 

nur alle vernünftig am warten.. .:-)
Gibt ja nix aufregendes.
Ich werd mit Sicherheit jetzt noch nicht verkaufen!
Erst wenn wir die 4,80$ wieder haben, eher denke ich über verkauf nicht nach.  

höher habe teuer gekauft. Aber Geduld zahlt sich aus !!!!!    

den Watches räumt man größeres Potential ein.

Jetzt muss Vuzix nur irgendwann mal wieder das Gaspedal finden und den richtigen Gang einlegen.

Bin von dem 5000er Bid in Stuttgart überrascht, kommen vielleicht bald Zahlen oder News?

Konnte leider nichts im Netz finden.  

Bid 2,12  Stück 28.301 zu Ask 2,252  Stück 5.000

Da sind doch keine Fakeorders und sie tauchen öfters auf und sind dann wieder weg? Was steckt dahinter?    

 

der Kurs ist bei 3 fest genagelt!  

Kaufzeit 15:52:39  Preis 2,20 €  Stückzahl 29.522  

Nur wo kamen die Stücke her die verkauft worden sind? Vorher waren doch immer nur ca 5000 im Ask zu sehen.

 

:-)  

bin total aufgeregt, halte diese Spannung nicht mehr aus! :-) Hahaha

Wenn sich die gute Presse doch auch mal in Mitteilungen des Managements zeigen würde und der Kurs mitgehen würde. Wäre das schön.

Bin auf die kommenden Tage gespannt. Meist kamen gegen Ende März Zahlen und Infos.  

vielleicht steigen ja da einige dann ein !!!  

aber ich glaube wir müssen hier wirklich auf super Zahlen und/oder Übernahmenews hoffen, weil das Ding will einfach nicht nach Norden :-(

... ich würde auch gern wissen was da in USA los ist. Habe noch keine News gefunden.  

wird einigen erstmal bewusst was VUZIX wert ist.. und der Kurs ein Witz ist.  

.. genau das wollt ich auch grad schreiben. Wahrscheinlich hat die Nachricht mit Oculus doch einige erst richtig aufmerksam gemacht.
