Arisawa Single Lens Video Glasses

Japanese Arisawa Mfg. Co. offers a single lens wearable video and TV glasses solution.

The Arisawa Teleglass attaches to apparently any eyeglasses. The lens mount only weighs 8g. The display consists of 0.24 inch LCD panel and a lens which generates a virtual image of 21 inch in size viewed from a meter away.

Arisawa sells the Teleglass for about 50,000 yen (~$429) and goes on sale in Japan still this year. Arisawa plans to release a version with integrated TV tuner in 2007.

Last year we reported about a similar HMD developed by Japanese Scalar Corp and you can read about it below:

The Scalar Teleglasses can be mounted on ordinary eye-glasses. The 0.24" 180,000 pixel LCD chip creates a 14" TV screen viewed in 1m distance.
The weight of just 7g is just amazing. The price for the LCD HMD is set at 50,000 yen (~$459.62).
