SimplyVideo supports a wide range of devices, including many industry-focused XR wearables. Let's take a closer look at some of them.

SimplyVideo is a video conferencing platform that simplifies collaboration across all devices – desktop, smartphone, tablet or XR wearable. With a click, tap or voice command, users can connect with colleagues across the world – even in challenging, low-bandwidth locations.


Does it work with your device? Probably. We've already built apps for some of the world's most popular wearables – and our developers are adding support for new hardware all the time.


Here's our current list of supported devices. All of these work with SimplyVideo, right out of the box.


RealWear HMT- 1


Since its release in 2018, the RealWear HMT-1 has been one of the go-to AR solutions for frontline workforces. The device has a lightweight, rugged design and comes purpose-built for commercial use in industries like automotive, manufacturing and healthcare. 


These smart glasses are voice-operated, house four digital microphones and feature active noise cancellation of up to 95 dBA, a 16-megapixel camera and a 1080p, 854×480 display. 


Also included is a 3250 mAh rechargeable Li-Ion battery that offers nine to 10 hours of charge, meaning you won't need to recharge mid-shift. The battery is replaceable.


What's under the hood? A Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor, along with 32 gigabytes of internal storage and three gigabytes of RAM. The device runs on Android.


RealWear HMT-1Z1


The RealWear HMT-1Z1 is a wearable computer for field workers across industries. It differs slightly from the HMT-1 in a couple of areas. First, it's 50 grams heavier and a little thicker – but it's been designed as such to meet the IS (intrinsic safety) standards for potentially explosive or hazardous environments. 


The Z1 stands for "Zone 1", referring to hazardous areas that have potentially explosive atmospheres. These include petrochemical plants and certain food processing locations.


The HMT 1Z1 has 16 gigabytes of internal storage and two gigabytes of RAM. It runs on Android and hosts the same 854×480 display and four microphones found in the HMT-1


RealWear Navigator 500


The RealWear Navigator 500 is a step up in functionality compared to the HMT range, offering additional accessories and a 48-megapixel camera. The camera boasts a telephoto mode, which enables 4x zoom at 1080p. 


The 500 facilitates collaboration and enhances workflow and IoT visualisation – all in a lightweight, ruggedised wearable.


A dual-camera thermal module can be attached to the Navigator 500, which adds thermal capabilities to the 48-megapixel sensor, enabling workers to monitor the heat signature of their environment. 


Rokid Air Pro


At only 89 grams, the Rokid Air Pro punches well above its weight, offering innovative AR solutions in training, education and more. 


Powered by the user's mobile phone, the Rokid Air Pro features a high-resolution 43˚ field-of-view display for an immersive visual experience, as well as an eight-megapixel camera for 1080p video streaming.


The Rokid Air Pro has demonstrated use cases for museum collections, allowing AR visuals to be overlaid on exhibition artefacts. 


Rokid Glass


For applications within manufacturing, healthcare and logistics, the Rokid Glass has proven to deliver impressive AR performance. The device offers hands-free voice control capabilities and can be used in conjunction with mobile devices via USB-C.


The device features a high-resolution monocular display with optical waveguide technology for enhanced see-through visualisation. With two microphones, stereo sound and active noise cancellation, the Rokid Glass enables clear communication in noisy work environments.   


Iristick H1


The Iristick H1 is a lightweight, head-mounted wearable featuring two 16-megapixel cameras. These are located at the centre of the headset, to allow for streaming with a realistic human point of view.


On one side of the cameras, there is a tiltable 6x lens for zooming in on details and scanning barcodes. The other side features a 640x400 adjustable OLED display. 


The Iristick H1 is hands-free and features built-in microphones for voice control, as well as active noise cancellation for loud environments. The device can connect to the user's smartphone via a pocket unit that leverages the processing power of the connected phone, offering better performance. It is compatible with Android and iOS smartphones.


The device is water resistant, drop-tested and offers full-shift battery life. Certifications for the Iristick H1 include CE, UKCA, FCC, EN60950, EN55032-CISPR32 Class B ITE, IP54 and IEC 60825-1.


Magic Leap 1 and 2


SimplyVideo supports both generations of the powerful Magic Leap AR headset. The newer Magic Leap 2 offers some hefty specs. Users will benefit from an AMD 7nm Quad-core Zen 2 X86 core processor, 16 gigabytes of RAM and 256 gigabytes of storage. 


With a 70˚ field of vision and optical waveguide technology, the Magic Leap 2 offers superior AR imaging in addition to a 12.6-megapixel camera that displays at 30 frames per second at 4K resolution. For accurate AR visualisation, the Magic Leap houses three wider field-of-view world cameras, a depth camera, an RGB camera, an ambient light sensor and four eye-tracking cameras.


The ambient light sensor allows workers to dim their surroundings to make AR content more visible. Users can customise and scale their UI for specific business integration, making the Magic Leap extremely versatile across a variety of industry use cases. 


DJI Mini 3


Take flight with the DJI Mini 3! With SimplyVideo support, drone users can stream rich 4K videos from the air for up to 38 minutes. The DJI Mini 3 features a 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor and dual-native ISO, meaning you can capture high-definition footage, day or night.


With its rotating gimbal, users can mechanically switch to true vertical shots mid-flight. Get closer to the action with 4x zoom and execute technical manoeuvres like a dronie, circle, helix, rocket or boomerang with its "QuickShots" function.


Vuzix Blade


With its fashionable, compact design, quad-core ARM CPU, eight-megapixel camera and see-through waveguide optics, the Vuzix Blade is every bit as cool as it looks. 


Workers can view digital instructions overlaid on their tasks or enable "see-what-I-see" video streaming while keeping their hands busy at work. The glasses feature multilingual voice control and a two-axis touchpad for discrete, unobtrusive navigation.


The Vuzix Blade uses the Android operating system and can be managed from your smartphone via the Vuzix mobile app. The glasses have 40 gigabytes of internal memory and run on rechargeable batteries. 


And many more….
