I used to run a startup in this space. There's a whole bunch of devices out on the market, from Vuzix Blade and M300 to the ODG R7/8/9 to the Realwear HMT-1. They all have their strengths and weaknesses. What's your use case for them?

No particular use case in mind yet, aside from exploratory development.
Gotcha. Yeah, the dev kits on some of those are a bit pricey (2k and up).

Coming from an industrial use-case, I personally really liked the Realwear HMT-1 — it performs like a champ, is surprisingly comfortable, is available as intrinsically safe, and has an easy-to-work-with team behind the scenes.

Would strongly consider skipping Glass EE, depending on what you want to do.
