SAN DIEGO, Calif. -- Aero Glass, a leading developer of augmented reality (AR) smart glasses solutions for aviation and automotive applications, was named the Auggie Award 2017 winner for “Best App” at the 8th annual Augmented World Expo (AWE) 2017. Taking place earlier this month in Silicon Valley, the AWE Auggie Awards recognized Aero Glass for its AR smart glasses solution that provides general aviation pilots and car drivers a true 3D, 360-degree view of navigation and safety features.
Pilots using Aero Glass will see features that are otherwise invisible such as airspaces, airways, procedures, navigation points, airports, taxiways, terrain, other aircraft and weather. Car drivers would simply follow a virtual car on the real road for navigation guidance to find their desired destination instead of looking at their GPS display inside the car. With Aero Glass, pilots and drivers can keep their eyes outside with key information overlaid transparently within their field of view.
“We are very proud to have won the ‘Best App’ Auggie Award at AWE this year,” said Ákos Maróy, founder of Aero Glass. “The AR field is heating up with many top companies and start-ups entering the space. With our many years of R&D, major corporate partners, and advanced AR solutions for both the aviation and automotive markets, we believe we are well-positioned for future growth and success.”
