The Chinese electronics and technology company has now revealed that it has its own wearable technology prototype.

The largest PC manufacturer in the world has now unveiled a prototype version of augmented reality glasses, which shows that the company is on its way to producing a wearable technology device that will place it in competition with Google Glass.

This AR headset functions with a type of necklace like band to enhance the life of the battery.

Lenovo, which is based in China, has unveiled the prototype of this device , which is a version of a wearable computer that bears somewhat of a resemblance to Google Glass, in that it is a headset that sits on the face in a way that is similar to eyeglasses. As is the case with the best known device in the augmented reality glasses category, the prototype appears to have a tiny screen – a small acrylic prism – onto which images are projected. That display is placed in front of the right eye of the wearer.

These augmented reality glasses also contain a unit that houses processors and memory chips on the right arm.

While that feature does help to improve the performance of the device, in the prototype, its right arm looked rather bulky as a result of the addition. The primary difference, in a visual sense, between the Lenovo AR glasses and the Google Glass is the battery pack which hangs around the back of the neck of the wearer, with a blue wire connecting it to the main device.

Other than the actual overall appearance, there wasn’t much in terms of detail that was provided along with the unveiling of the device. That said, Lenovo has said that it will make a new series of announcements about what can be expected from this wearable technology, in October.

The prototype augmented reality glasses are one element of the NBD project at Lenovo, which is focused on the production of a range of different internet connected devices, such as fridges and toasters, and even air purifiers that are controllable through the use of a smartphone.

One of the most attractive aspects of mobile commerce is its convenience. Smartphones and tablets let people make payments for goods and services wherever they happen to be at any given moment, and these people don’t even have to use a credit card or any kind of physical currency. Many mobile commerce platforms have been able to thrive because of their convenient nature. In the advent of wearable technology, that convenience could be taken to a new level.

Wearable devices, such as smart watches and glasses are on the verge of becoming quite popular with tech-savvy consumers. Few of these devices are currently available, but that is likely to change in the next few years. Current wearable devices are somewhat lackluster in their features, but devices being released in the near future will behave very similar to modern smartphones. They will be able to use a wide range of applications, some of which will change the way people see the physical world around them. They will also have access to mobile commerce platforms.

Unlike smartphones, wearable devices will be controlled in a more intuitive way. For smart glasses, voice controls and modest head and eye movements will be used to activate the features of a device. These devices will also be equipped with image recognition technology that could also be used to activate certain features. This could make commerce significantly more intuitive and responsive to consumer interaction. When someone can look at a product and make a purchase with nothing more than a blink of an eye, that is the epitome of convenience in the mobile commerce space.

Wearable devices aren’t perfect, of course. Using a simple gesture to make a purchase could lead to many problems, such as unauthorized transactions. This is not something that app developers are unaware of, and many are taking steps to ensure that their mobile commerce platforms will not be abusive in this way.
