# High-Tech Video Glasses The Vuzix Wrap 920AV Virtual Reality Shades (CES 2009) By TrendHead | Published 2009-01-08 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-tech-video-glasses-the-vuzix-wrap-glasses References: [ces.cnet](http://ces.cnet.com/8301-19167_1-10127213-100.html?tag=mncoltitle) As far as [video glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-eyewear1) are concerned, the world has of yet only seen ridiculous designs which made you look like something out of ‘RoboCop.’ But alas, [Vuzix](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vuzix-shield-3d) is releasing a pair of super-smart Vuzix Wrap 920AV glasses. I am not very clued up on cutting-edge technology, but these video-enabled glasses don’t look too bad--a bit action-film-like, mind you, but that is a cool look, especially if you are snowboarding or participating in Tour de France. The specs feature [virtual reality abilities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luma-beast-xr-glasses) and are connectible with almost any media player. They include built-in headphones and individual focal adjustments. The price on a pair of these bad boys is unknown, but it will probably all be revealed at CES shortly. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 32% | Activity: 68% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Virtual Reality Glasses:** The development and advancement of virtual reality glasses that provide immersive experiences and individual focal adjustments. - **Connected Media Devices:** The growing demand for video glasses that can be easily connected to various media players and devices. - **Action-film-like Aesthetics:** The trend of video glasses designed with a cool and action-film-like appearance for sports and outdoor activities. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Consumer Electronics:** The consumer electronics industry can capitalize on the demand for virtual reality glasses and connected media devices. - **Entertainment:** The entertainment industry can leverage virtual reality glasses to provide immersive experiences in movies, gaming, and virtual tours. - **Sports and Outdoor Activities:** The sports and outdoor activities industry can explore the integration of video glasses with action-film-like aesthetics for enhanced experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Immersive Video-Streaming Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/viture-one.md) - [Protective Connected Workforce Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vuzix-shield-3d.md) - [Screen-Projecting AR Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/screenprojecting-ar-glasses.md) - [Consumer-Focused Smart Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vuzix-z100-smart.md) - [Extended Reality Gaming Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/virtue-one.md) - [Ultra-Bright AR Display Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tozo-vizo-v1.md) - [Productivity-Focused Smart Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asus-airvision-m1.md) - [Portable XR Screens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rayneo-air-3s-pro.md) - [Head-Mounted HD Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goovis-g3x.md)
