Yesterday I gave some Valentine’s Day gift giving suggestions for you guys to give to your lady.  These babies look amazing for anyone!  The Vuzix iWear AV310 Widescreen Video Glasses provide a viewing experience equal to watching a widescreen 52-inch TV from 9 feet away.  They can connect to either your video iPod, a portable DVD player, video cameras, digital cameras, or even a video game system.

Although Vuzix has had their “iWear” around for a bit now, this is the first set that offers the 16:9 ratio.  The AV310 uses two high resolution LCDs and dual stereo headphones.  The viewer, which was developed from U.S. military technology, generates 24-bit true color (that means 16 million colors), and a 28’ field of view.  The LCDs offer 428 x 240 resolution, and can be focused individually from +2 down to -5 diopters, and tilted up to 15 degrees for a custom fit.  The nose piece is hypoallergenic and adjustable, and the headphones (with replaceable earbuds) produce great, crisp sound quality.  There is also an optional head strap.  Also included is one lithium AA battery which will provide up to 8 hours of continuous operation, iPod cable, A/V cable, and carrying case.

Hey, maybe you could buy a set of these and watch some of those movies you recorded with that video camera you bought her! wink wink.
