Our customers have multiple options for securing their devices on the corporate or facility network. These range from native Android features such as user profiles and PIN numbers to enterprise Mobile Device Management systems, many of whom have optimized their solutions for the smart glasses, to The Knowledge Place Cloud which provides some basic management features focused on the SMART GLASS DEVICES. Of course, your security needs are highly specific to your organization. We would be happy to discuss your organization’s enterprise security approach and advise you on how the smart glass devices can securely fit into your environment with confidence. Please contact support@newforgetech.com to arrange for a detailed conversation with our product team. Any hotspot connectivity would use the security protocols you set up with the provider.

Position the display pod for use with your dominant eye. TIP: To determine your dominant eye, target a distant object through a small opening formed using your two hands. The eye you most naturally use is dominant. A quick web search will yield many instructions on how to determine your dominant eye, or you can check out our user manual here. Position the Display Pod just below/above your line of sight, about an inch from your eye. Using the display should be like looking at the dashboard of a car or your rearview mirror.
Make sure that you are using your dominant eye and that devices are adjusted properly. For more information, please see the Getting Started Guide included in the box or here.
The devices are designed for hands-free work. Depending on the device, there are voice commands and other methods you can use to navigate the software and the operating system. You can find specific information for the RealWear HMT-1 here, for the Vuzix M400 here and for the Glass EE2 here.
Both the HMT-1 and M400 supports both 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi. There are four ways to connect and configure Devices. NOTE: Make sure you are permitted by your company to be connected to a network and that you are complying with your company’s security protocols.
