At the CES, Chinese chip maker was showing off its Google Glass-like solution that is understandably powered by a Rockchip processor. We briefly played with the Rockchip’s offering that has a regular Android user interface and can be maneuvered via a touchpad like module on the side.
Rockchip says the near-eye display can output at a resolution of 1280×720 pixels and is powered by RK3168 1.6GHz dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor. The solution also features 1GB RAM, 4GB internal memory, Android 4.2.2 onboard, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, 5 megapixel camera on the front and 570mAh battery.
Rockchip didn’t have a concrete date or the pricing for their device but hinted about a 2H 2014 launch (mostly through a partner) with a price of around $600 to $800.
