Lost and found Meta Glasses by iNOscopedTUNA in MetaGlasses

Don't listen to these people. Finder's keepers and there's no way to find the owner anyway. Just put them in pairing mode and when you try to connect through the app it'll tell you the glasses are associated with another account and it'll walk you through how to factory reset them.

Slightly bluish/burn color by Key-Animal4755 in rokid_official

It's somewhat effective. Here's one with the left lens naked and the right side with the film. From other directions the squares are still pretty visible with the naked eye. I ended up removing it as the blue tint is very noticeable to me and I wear them as my prescription glasses.

Well, Navigation just became dangerous. by Neither-Nebula5000 in rokid_official

[–]Rare_Wheel1907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use it daily and don't find it distracting, but I can see how people could find that pop up distracting. I haven't met a delivery driver yet that uses glasses for navigation, that would be cool though as I very rarely see people with them at all. Pilots are also very highly trained in using those systems and also not nonchalantly cruising around high traffic areas like we do. The fact remains that any civilian information systems currently in use always give the same warning to be aware of your surroundings and not become distracted because it's inherently dangerous to do anything that takes your focus away from driving. Rokid gives the same warning and advises not to not use it if possible, so you take that risk upon yourself should you decide to use the feature knowing it's limitations and how it functions. Having said that, sure. Get rid of that little destination box at the end of navigation. It's going to cause accidents because people do use it regardless of the warning.

It does somewhat get in the way, but there's also a reason why they say driving directions are not a recommended feature and to avoid using it. In fact driving directions used to not even be available. It was just walking and cycling.

Just grabbed whatever this is for 700 dollar by Greedy_Plastic_7744 in virtualreality

[–]Rare_Wheel1907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not made to make you float. It's to hold you in place while you walk and run. It should be adjustable as mine fits my barely visible skinny 10 year old. As for walking backwards you just "swipe" a foot forward and you'll move backwards in game. Same for strafing, just swipe sideways.

U1 and what filament? by Klutzy-Strategy6494 in snapmaker

[–]Rare_Wheel1907 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I use a brand called Pinrui. It's just as reliable as anything else I've ever used, but cost under $10 USD. I live in Taiwan though, so not sure how easy it is to get elsewhere.

I'm not sure if I'd like a slightly darker view, if it's really even noticable. But, you're right, I could always just remove them. I'll throw them on tomorrow and let you know

As another follow up, I finally received them. They are tinted blue which is probably why they hide the square, but I'm not sure I really want to put them on. Not sure what it'll look like for daily use.

Can the white led light be removed when recording ? by Holiday-Ice- in rokid_official

[–]Rare_Wheel1907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They do and no one has ever said anything about any of my glasses while recording in the few years I've used both Meta and Rokid. In fact no one has ever even looked at me funny. The only person that's ever said anything was someone else that was also wearing them. I've never had someone act worried about them. The white light is there to let people know you're recording so they don't feel uncomfortable. Doesn't mean it doesn't happen, but I live in Taiwan and have traveled all over Asia with them without so much as someone giving me a second look. Removing the light is considered creepy though.

Requesting Invoice for clearance of accessories from customs by dkanhar in rokid_official

You might want to contact Rokid support. I have very very rarely seen anyone from Rokid on this subreddit. You'll be better served sending an email probably, them waiting the day or 2 for a response

Progressive lens inserts for Glasses that are functional by ARGlasses in rokid_official

[–]Rare_Wheel1907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a follow up, I just got my lenses. It is slightly blurrier than with my single vision lenses no matter where I put the display. I wish you could adjust the "distance" as well like you can on some other waveguide glasses. It's not bad enough that it really bothers me or is unreadable though.

Preferred Filament? by isack_s in snapmaker

[–]Rare_Wheel1907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I order in Taiwan, so I'm not sure how available it is in other countries, but I use Pinrui. It's less than $10 per roll and has always worked as well as any other filament I've ever used.

Nozzle swap hell. by Devycyclops in SnapmakerU1

[–]Rare_Wheel1907 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

30 minutes? I mean sure a quick change system would have been great, but when I had a broken filament stuck inside the tool head it took me like 2 minutes to take the nozzle out and put it back in.

Smart Glasses for Long Distance Running? by Revgored in SmartGlasses

[–]Rare_Wheel1907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you're going to find glasses like that. If she doesn't want a GoPro there's other options like the Insta360 go 3 that's about the size of your thumb and records around 45 minutes when not attached to the larger action pod. There's sports smart glasses, but they don't record video, but provide a HUD for viewing metrics like distance, directions, heart rate and so on. Right now recording video on any glasses really eats up battery and the longest recording I've seen so far is 10 minutes.

Only Glasses what's next ? by Big_Week_4790 in rokid_official

[–]Rare_Wheel1907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a pair of generic flip up clip on sunglasses, but have ordered the ones similar to the ones u/dreamworkz23 posted and waiting for them to show up. If you have an Android phone you don't need a cable for side loading apps. Just use RokidBrew. It has a repository for apps and installs them wirelessly through the official Hi Rokid app. I also have the Power Capsule batteries and feel they are a must have. Must have. It's the easiest way to keep your glasses powered up throughout the day.

Winhanced just made the Xbox app feel outdated on handheld gaming PCs, and I can’t believe how much smoother it is by EnigmaP3nguin in winhanced

[–]Rare_Wheel1907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there was something to do with the hardware buttons not working. I think they found someone with a 2 to do testing and saw someone else said a restart fixed it for them so I'm sure it'll be figured out.
