"The first model I tried featured Lumus' optimized Z-30 waveguides, which not only offer a much wider 30-degree FOV, they are also 30 percent lighter and 40 percent thinner than previous generations. On top of that, Lumus says they are also more power efficient with the waveguides capable of hitting more than 8,000 nits per watt. This is a big deal because smartglasses are currently quite limited by the size of batteries they can use,"
"especially if you want to make them small and light enough to wear all day. When I tried them on, I was dazzled by both the brightness and sharpness I saw from the Z-30s despite them being limited to 720 x 720 resolution. Not only did the increase in FOV feel much larger than 10 degrees, colors were very rich, including white, which is often one of the most difficult shades to properly reproduce."
Lumus introduced optimized Z-30 waveguides with a 30-degree field of view that are 30 percent lighter and 40 percent thinner than prior generations, while achieving over 8,000 nits per watt. The Z-30 delivers bright, sharp imagery at 720 x 720 resolution with notably rich color reproduction, including improved whites. A separate 70-degree waveguide option provides dramatically expanded central-lens coverage for a far more immersive viewing area. These optical advances address battery, weight, and form-factor constraints and enable the next generation of high-end smartglasses to offer larger, brighter, and more color-accurate displays.
