MW10 HiKARI

Product Info

For those who have trouble seeing in dark places, day or night.

In dark or nighttime environments,
Brighter vision, and a wider field of vision for those with tunnel vision.

The "MW10 HiKARI" is equipped with a uniquely developed, low-light, highly sensitive, small camera that amplifies even the slightest light and captures images in natural colors. The image is then processed by a computer and projected onto a display in front of the user's eyes, reproducing images in bright color even in dark places.

*This is different from monochrome night vision cameras that use infrared reflection. *The MW10 HiKARI is effective for people who have "central vision" and "night blindness (can see in bright places but have difficulty in the dark)."

Projected as image light

A small camera is built into the center of the frame, and a small projector is built into the left and right overhangs. The small amount of light captured by the camera is amplified and projected onto the half mirror layer as a clear image.

Two types of camera lenses

``It would be great if the lenses could be changed like single-lens cameras,'' and we turned that request into reality. You can use two types of lenses depending on your purpose: a "standard camera lens (up to 27 degrees horizontally)" that accurately captures what's at hand, and a "wide-angle camera lens (up to 142 degrees horizontally)" that allows you to see the landscape from a wide angle. .

○ Standard camera lens…When walking in a dark place, looking at your hand or the night sky ○ Wide-angle camera lens…When you want to see the entire scenery, etc.

Color display/black and white inverted display can be selected even in dark places

The color tone can be changed to standard (color), high contrast (white, yellow emphasis), and black and white (single color/inverted). Images can be reproduced in color (approximately 16.77 million colors) even in the dark as in the daytime.

Left and right display see-through structure

See-through structure allows you to feel the outside air. The displays inside the half-mirror layer are placed on the left and right so that the functioning eye can be used primarily.

*If you would like to apply for a subscription service, please consult in advance with your nearest MW10 authorized dealer.

DESIGN

It has a curve that fits the face more naturally, and a seamless shape that makes the protrusion of the camera less noticeable.
