THEIA: Cost-Effective and Portable Heads-Up Display

THEIA is a portable and affordable take on the modern Heads-Up Display. Attachable to any pair of eyewear, THEIA provides any user with a concise display of information right in front of their line of sight. Cyclists need not distract themselves by looking down at an external speedometer when their speed is displayed on the road ahead of them. People concerned with their calorie intake can see the nutritional facts of their food as they look at it. Facts about various items can be displayed as those items appear in the line of sight of the user. THEIA is meant to be compact and portable, able to attach to any eyewear as to not require the fabrication of a special pair of glasses. THEIA also uses affordable and convenient technology as to not discount individuals who wish to have a HUD but cannot afford the current AR glasses on the market. Everyone deserves to have access to their own personal HUD, a goal THEIA hopes to achieve by providing a cost-effective and portable means of displaying information that can be attached to any pair of eyewear.
