Have you known a next generation smartglasses that truly based on Blockchain? This about it. Lucyd is designing next-gen augmented reality (AR) smartglasses, and a blockchain-based AR app ecosystem to support them. Lucyd Lens will superimpose computer graphics and text on top of your natural vision, to make just about any task or computing function easy, comfortable and seamlessly integrated with real life. Lucyd technology enables user-friendly AR in a fluid, plug-and-play fashion, making the AR revolution accessible for everyone. The addition of an Ethereum-powered AR app ecosystem to our already powerful smartglass tech will create a next-level AR experience. Lucyd is going to make it so anyone can easily develop, share, monetize and experience AR-native content, all within the smartglass itself. Lucyd’s main goal is to decentralize the AR movement with Lucyd Lens and the Lucyd Lab blockchain. The purpose of the LCD crowdfund is to get us to our first hardware prototype.
Lucyd(LCD)-Features
Lucyd Lens will have a number of first-ever features in wearable AR displays
First to miniaturize the optics for compact, lightweight projection in see-through head-mounted display for AR applications.
First full integration of eye tracking with micro-illuminators in smartglasses.
First integration of occlusion support in smartglasses, which enables cooperative virtual objects that meld smoothly with the real word.
First freeform design methodology for off-axis, non-rotationally symmetric geometries that can enable custom designs including small eyeglass formats and compatibility with corrective lenses.
First integration of high spatial resolution microdisplays with low light loss, incorporating transparent, retro-reflective lenses.
First smartglasses with adjustable narrow-to-wide (up to 120°) enhanced field of view with variable spatial resolutions. This supports both real-world and in-Lens focal point interfaces, which are needed for max functionality.
First smartglasses that look and feel like normal glasses, with an AR interface that can be instantly engaged and disengaged for comfortable all-day wear.
No buttons, switches or wires for a truly next-gen experience.
Foundational integration of an AR app blockchain to make it easy for anyone to develop, share and experience Lucyd-native content.
Lucyd(LCD)-Performance
Lucyd’s 13 patents have been scientifically evaluated by Dr. Mike Kayat, a Lucyd scientist and optics expert with 20 years of experience in commercializing optical-mechanical products. You can view this evaluation here on the Lucyd blog. Lucyd’s patents were developed over years of well-funded research at the College of Optics and Photonics at UCF. The lead inventor behind Lucyd patents, Dr. Jannick Rolland, is on hand as a Lucyd advisor, overseeing the optical system development. All in all, Lucyd tech is proven to enable next-gen smartglasses — we are just crowdfunding to get to a prototype, and to get our mission of decentralized AR to the public
The Supply
10 million LCD tokens have been created, and will never be reissued. Half are available during the crowdsale, with the other half split over the team, fueling the blockchain, and boosting business development. No further LCD will be minted, but Lucyd plans to issue LCD to the user and developer community during the normal operation of Lucyd Lens, as well as regularly uptake LCD from the community in exchange for AR products, as well as by collecting network, app store, and in-Lens P2P transaction fees in LCD.
Token usage
The LCD token is the building block of the Lucyd AR world. During the token sale, it lets anyone participate in helping to fund Lucyd’s hardware development, and reserve a limited beta Lucyd Lens, which will be released in well in advance of the production model. Lucyd is optimistic that the value of the LCD token will increase, as interest surrounding Lucyd increases as they get closer to a functional AR display. Finally, during normal course of business for Lucyd, LCD will power a blockchain ecosystem that will be the content feed for the smartglasses. It will enable instant P2P transactions among Lens wearers, reward developers based on community impact of their contributions, and be used for instant content purchases, all in-Lens. Essentially, LCD will represent real-world value in the AR world, untethering the user experience from existing financial systems, and allowing for lightning-fast transactions among Lens users.
Right there at the top of the list of the emerging technologies to keep an eye for in the next decade are the blockchain technology and augmented/virtual reality. People are just no longer satisfied with what they see around them in the real world. Today people are seeking a way to spice things up and be able to achieve a lot more with their time even while they are sipping that coffee during the break or when they are at the beach, without as much as lifting a finger to do any extra work. The Augmented Reality space is one that growing at a rapid pace and since we were all given a glance of what it could be with Google Glass. Since then, a lot of research has been going on in this space to deliver the perfect and seamless smart lenses to deliver the best AR experience without looking out of place, but with little success thus far.
The Lucyd Project
Lucyd is a blockchain based startup that is developed by world-renowned experts in optometry who have put in a lot of effort over the years to develop the first seamless and ergonomically perfect smart glass. The smart glass is aiming to finally make the augmented reality consumers dream, calling for a natural looking and aesthetically pleasing AR glasses a reality. Lucyd is a project that is backed by certified patents on the creation of smart glass designs. The project now seeks to leverage on the pervading decentralization of the blockchain technology to offer the Smart Glasses the perfect ecosystem to become a natural extension of the experience for users wherever they might go or travel around the world within the new augmented and virtual realities.
A Vibrant Ecosystem in the Making
Among the dreams of the Lucyd platform is to create a vibrant ecosystem in which users and developers all benefit from their activities in return for incentives from the network. Developers will be greatly encouraged to develop their apps from the ground up that will be used on the Lucyd platform, from productivity apps, to games, where they get LCD tokens as their apps are downloaded and rated. And as for the user, their activities on the platform such as viewing ads and rating apps are also all rewarded with the token. Both users and the developers can then go ahead to either sell their tokens for fiat money on exchanges or use them for on-app purchases or buy AR hardware like the latest Smart glasses. The goal of Lucid is to be first on the ground in an industry that is projected to be worth almost $40 billion by the year 2023, and with 13 patents to its name and with the best developers and optometry experts in the world on its team, it is in prime position to take a seat at the high table.
