To my knowledge there is no such method and personally. I don't see my self or anyone else jumping to the newest version if Samsung is going to leave us hanging in the dark as they did to us with the pervious 2 models. No one is itching to have this happen again for the third tine. IMO.
[Moverio BT-200 General] hololeo:
I understand. If you get a chance you should check out the BT-300. Its a remarkable device in both its display and form factor. I will be releasing various webinars on it soon. If you have a particular topic of interest let me know
[Moverio BT-200 General] cybericebyte:
No I have washed my hands of moverio and as you can probably tell this thread is pretty much Dead so I don't think I'm the only one.
[Moverio BT-200 General] jaykay2PT:
I, personally think that Epson could, as an olive branch to us early adopters of the BT-200, offer us an upgrade route to the BT-300, otherwise, like the previous poster, I am done with them!
[Moverio BT-200 General] hololeo:
Hi jaykay2PT. I will pass along your feedback and concerns regarding an upgrade route. I think its a good idea but that my own personal opinion and i dont decide these matters.

You posted earlier about the HDMI box. I got one of these to review. Do you have any specific uses for it? I will be doing a video on it very soon. This would be a good time to get specific questions addressed
[Moverio BT-200 General] jaykay2PT:
Hi, I just wondered about the price? there was one championed earlier by Epson , but it cost around $15000, which was ludicrous, twice the price of the glasses!

My interest is using the glasses with a radio controlled vehicle, be it a Quadcopter, plane or boat.

As I said, without some really good incentive from Epson to upgrade to the BT-300, then, as far as I am concerned, it will be dead in the water.

You only have to read through this thread to feel how disappointed everyone is, started with such promise for the R/C hobbyists, and quite a lot of us took the plunge, based on a video, which both Epson & DJI said, much later, "Oh it was unofficial",
[Moverio BT-200 General] hololeo:
Yes this sure is a long thread! A lot of discussion going on in here lol

I dont know the official price for the HDMI box. I have to find the right cable for it as it was not included in the unit sent to me. Its remarkably light though
[Moverio BT-200 General] eskalera:
I've been researching on this for a long time now with no results yet.

Hi ailerons,

have you got any updates on this issue? I've even tried to build crosswalk in order to debug it in the Moverio and see what the problem is, but that path only led me to more and more problems.

Regards.

Moverio BT-200 HDMI accessory information

from the prelaunch dot com website

The DM485 video input accessory by Colorado Video is designed to push a mini-HDMI video signal directly into the Epson Moverio BT-200 smart glasses, addressing the demand for a low latency and transparent pair of video glasses

check out moverioaccessory dot prelaunch dot com

http://moverioaccessory.prelaunch.com/

Price is $499.00

Details say you will need some cables ("available soon") and a power source. This looks like a box the same size as the android controller box plus you will need mini-usb power.

I'm looking to use it only for First-Person-View drone flying and haven't decided if I will buy it. Kinda bulky and the price is almost the same as the BT-300 series out this fall. Can I wait that long for $500?????? Only time will tell! I will post a review if I decide to get it.

Hello Alcuin,

I am a newbie to the Epson Moverio BT200. I had just ordered mine from Rukuten.co.jp cause it is not available at my location.

I am an expat residing in Bangkok, Thailand. After reading your forum, I decided to take a brave step and try out the BT-200AV.

Can you please provide me a more through guide on how to add the Google playstore onto the BT-200?

I read your posting but I do not know where or how to install the mentioned apk and softwares.

Please help me. Greatly appreciated for your time and guidance.

Hi,

I have downloaded Baidu, but am not sure what I need to do from there. I have three pages in Portrait mode (beginning to get to grips with moving the cursor her whilst in landscape), but they are a combination of symbols & Chinese words. Not sure what if any of these are relevant?

Once I download SuperSU and try to use I get a cannot open file message.

Any advice gratefully received,

Morning,

Just a question... can you check the Android version you have installed on your glass?
[Moverio BT-200 General] guillaume1998:
Hi,

It has already been 24 hours and we still haven't received any news from the moverio developer site. We would like to be able to start working on the glasses quickly. It's a bit surprising for such an important company that the review process is that slow. No wonder the moverio store is empty and doesn't even feature a file explorer...

I sincerely hope things will improve rapidly.

Rotation Locker App

Hi James -

One tip regarding portrait mode... there's a great app on the Amazon app store called "Rotation Locker" it'll rotate and lock a lot of content into landscape. This is a must have app for the BT-200.

Google Maps alternative

Hi,

From our understanding we cannot officially use Google Maps or any application of the Google Mobile Services.

Thus, does Epson has an alternative solution for map services? A similar API that would provide similar functionalities?

Indeed without any, it seriously affects the potential of the glasses...

Is there any plans in the near future to have the BT-200 certified?

Thanks in advance
[Moverio BT-200 General] sev7en:
Happy to hear that ^_^

I am really disappointed for the lack of support from Epson... I will look into that but did you try yandexmaps?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.yandex.yandexmaps

Which typo of navigation service do you need?
[Moverio BT-200 General] guillaume1998:
Thanks we will look further into yandexmaps ;)

We would like a map service with an Android SDK (map data could be online or offline). The possibility to use customs maps would be a plus. Also we would need a direction API to easily compute itineraries based on parameters such as: mean of transportation, time/distance.

It seems that OpenStreetMap might be an interesting alternative since there are some frameworks to work with it:

-mapsforge

-osmdroid + osmbonuspack (for routes and navigation)

upgrading build

Using the developer site that Eric posted, did anyone manage to upgrade their build? I have D1.0.1 and tried to use the directions in the technical information; How to Modify the System Software for Developer. The directions are fairly easy, just use the QR code and download the systemupdate.apk and then install it and run it. Nothing seemed to happen. and where it shows the latest versions it says UNKOWN.

Updatable system software

R1.0.0 / R1.0.2 / R1.0.4

D1.0.0 / D1.0.2 / D1.0.3

notice D1.0.1 is not on the list. I am wondering if its not updatable.

Also, does anyone know how to change to the consumer version if needed?

Unity3D and Moverio: First touch ignored

Hello, everybody.

I have been working with the new Moverio BT-200 and Unity 3D for the last few days. I am now finding an strange issue related to the built-in Moverio touch handler. I have discovered that my UI in Unity (made with NGUI) is not detecting my first touch.

I have built a small app that displays the Input.touchCount value every frame. As I guessed, the first touch is not detected (touchCount is still 0). When the second finger si simultaneously touching the screen, touchCount value is 1.

I have also contacted Epson, but I have to say that it has been a week since then and I got no answer so far. They don't seem to care a lot about Moverio developers.

Any guess on how to solve it? Any other ideas would be welcome.

Regards,

Aernarion.

---------- Post added at 08:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 AM ----------

Hello.

I have also updated the Moverio BT-200 O/S version. Once you have executed the systemupdate.apk, you should be able to upgrade your O/S version by checking new updates in the "About" section of the "Settings" tab. It should then detect the new update and install it as usual.

Hope this helps.

Aernarion.
[Moverio BT-200 General] SDTSG:
Thank you for the reply. Seems no matter how much I try (and installation is easy). I still get "Latest Version: unknown" in the updater. It displays my current version but does not seem to phone home for the other versions. Did you originally have the D1.0.1 version?
[Moverio BT-200 General] guillaume1998:
Are you behind a proxy? I encountered the same issue due to the company network policy. Though the glasses were originally on R1.0.0.
[Moverio BT-200 General] SDTSG:
No... I tried multiple places like at home where I know my network and still doesn't work. but your R1.0.0 consumer version is on the list as updatable. I am pretty sure mine is not updateable through the directions listed:

3. Updatable System Software

This procedure can be implemented with the system software versions below. The system software

version can be checked through [Settings]→[Device info], and [Build number].

■ Updatable system software

R1.0.0 / R1.0.2 / R1.0.4

I'm really disappointed that the two external battery packs I've tried with the Moverio don't work. I'm able to charge while using with car charger and laptop. Has anyone found a battery pack that works?

I really love the device. It's so much better than the Google Glass I used for 8 months. I just wish I could find a way to keep it running the entire day.

I have a Epson BT-200 and have installed my own app onto it. However my app uses the Google Speech to Text API which comes with google now etc. Does anyone know how I can install this into the glasses so that the google speech to text works. At the moment when my app calls on it, the app closes saying 'Unfortunately...stopped working'

I really look forward to some help in fixing this. p.s. I am on version R1.1.2
[Moverio BT-200 General] hololeo:
I havent investigated this but my hunch is this has to do with Google Speech to Text API depends on Google Play services. This is not supported on the BT-200. So apps that depend on that underlying service will not work as expected

---------- Post added at 10:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

this is likely app related. Have you tried finding another camera app that supports this feature? If not its also possible to code an app to do this

Hi guys

How does Moverio BT-200/300 handles general video content (youtube, local media player, netflix e.t.c.) on the move?

Now, I may sound crazy, but for years I've been looking for a solution which will allow me to watch video content while jogging in the park, working out at gym, doing house cleaning, e.t.c. - activities which involve long repetitive movement and don't require a lot of attention. Most multimedia wearables closes the view completely, but I need to retain at least some degree of view to see where I'm running or when I need to grab a new weight at the gym.

So how does media playback looks in Moverio? Can you move the "screen" to the side of your view, or can you have an opaque view so you could partially see through? How much of the filed of vision is not covered by the screen?
[Moverio BT-200 General] D0CTOR:
When watching video, it's similar to me watching my 65" TV at about 10'. You can turn the brightness up or down to see "thru" the image.

My only concern would be the comfort of the nose pads for an extended amount of time. After awhile they seem to get heavier if you know what I mean.
[Moverio BT-200 General] TechAndrew256:
I'm looking for a bursts of 30-40 minutes while I'm working out or jogging. Just enough for one TV series episode. Does it feel uncomfortable after 40 minutes of wearing?
[Moverio BT-200 General] D0CTOR:
Not really any different from wearing heavy sunglasses.

Today I logged onto my Glasses and there was finally an update: R1.0.5 was seen on my glasses as the latest release instead of the 'unknown' I usually see.

[Moverio BT-200 General] soaringfelix:
Hey,

I got my BT200 today. I have several problems during trying to start developing. First is that I cannot mount a micro-SD-card! Do I have to use some specific formatting? When a sd-card is inserted, the settings page "storage" doesn't work anymore and settings app crashes.

Next question is about Moverio Mirror. Did anybody manage to use it with a Windows-8-peer connected to the BT200? Both devices notice each other during WiFi-Direct connection-startup, but after entering a random wps-pin they don't want to connect.

Is there someone out there who came up with the same issues? Is there a solution or approach I could try?

Besides this, is there some other forum to ask Moverio-regarding questions??

PS: FYI I managed to update the goggle to build version 1.0.5 (after three attempts)

thanks in advance

cheers,

Felix
[Moverio BT-200 General] SDTSG:
I have the same problem with the moverio mirror and widi. but I mounted a micro SD fine (just put it in and it saw it). Its a 32 gig and I have several music videos on it. my current version is D1.0.1 and am hoping that the mirror problem will be fixed in the latest build which will be R1.0.5 for me. I called Epson and they said the server must be down at the moment. So, I am waiting patiently.

maybe try formatting the SD card with a computer if its over 8 gigs. use fat32. I think I read somewhere about someone needing to do that.
[Moverio BT-200 General] soaringfelix:
Hey SDTSG ,

I found out that the reason for the miracast issue could be the missing miracast support of my graphics driver. You can check using "dxdiag", saving the analyse report and searching for miracast in the file

The SDCard problem was caused by my broken SD Card... so Hardware is fine

.

And be careful with upgrading from D to R-Version. I did the mistake to upgrade to R1.0.5 and now I have no chance to downgrade to latest Developer version. But if there is anybody out there who knows if there is solution for this problem please let me know.

You currently work with D1.0.1? But there is D1.0.3 released isn't it? You should try to update to this version.
[Moverio BT-200 General] SDTSG:
I tried to through the developer site.. but D1.0.1 is not upgradable that way. So my only hope is to get the R1.0.5. but I am still having problems with it. I haven't checked today yet. But when I called Epson, they said their servers are probably down and to give them some time.

Need Assistance

I am on build D1.0.1 and thus far unable to update to R1.0.5.

I have managed to root the device and install Google Play, Netflix, Flixster, YouTube and such. I mostly bought these to work with the DJI Phantom 2 Vision Plus.

My issues I need assistance with are;

1) Unable to update build, every so often when I try it says current version unknown then says server error, I have been trying to update throughout the last 24 hours. Does anyone have a downloadable copy of the update?

2) SD card is not recognized... I have tried formatted and not formatted as well as several other cards that I know work. I install a card and go to settings to verify it i mounted. The storage screen has "mount sd card" I click it and nothing happens.

3) Unable to log into my DJI ground station account getting a "time out" message

4) I cannot get Mirror cast to work... Both the Epson Unit and Note3 see each other, they connect for a few seconds then disconnect.

Any help you can provide is much appreciated. Until then I am just watching movies on the goggles.

Thank you,

Jason
[Moverio BT-200 General] SDTSG:
I have still not been able to upgrade the build either. I was going to contact them either tomorrow or next week on this. I was trying to give them a little time. The last time I contacted them they agreed something was wrong and they said maybe the server was down and they put a ticket in.

SD card works fine in mine

mirror cast not working in mine either... sounds the same.. I am hoping it will be fixed in the update.
[Moverio BT-200 General] Vengeance1968:
Followup

I did email Epson's customer support Tuesday night and I finally received a call from their California US corporate office from a woman named Margaret.

She told me my email made it all the way up to the Project Manager yet no response was ever given to me.

Margaret offered to buy back the glasses and was very apologetic for the issues with the new glasses.

I told Margaret that I was willing to give Epson until next Friday to get things straightened out. If they have not or at least have no plan moving forward then I would accept her offer, she agreed.

My biggest gripe is that this product was released:

Not Google certified

Without a complete operating system

Way too many software bugs

Not ready at all for end users

I will update as I get information or find work arounds...

I am not a coder nor a developer, but I do know how to track down issues, their causes and remedies.

Thank you,

Jason
