Introduction
GDN got a chance to take a look at the Vuzix Wrap 310 XL eyewear and boy were we in for a treat. For those that don’t know what the Wrap 310 XL are, they are a video eyewear solution that offers a virtual 55-inch screen that can display both standard 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios and can play standard 2-D and side-by-side format 3-D movies. The 310XL’s are made to be stylish, so you can wear them at home, on an airplane, or while traveling, thus allowing you to watch your favorite movies and videos without attracting extra attention from those around you. They look like a normal pair of sunglasses but have hidden twin high-resolution 428 x 240 LCD widescreen displays, which, according to the manufacturer, is equivalent to a 55-inch 
screen viewed from 10 feet.
The Wrap 310 XL connects to all normal composite video devices out of the box, and can be connected to NTSC or PAL audio/video with video composite capability. Other supported devices include but are not limited to an Apple IPad, itouch, ipods, iphone, media players, portable DVD players , any composite video media players, digital cameras, camcorders, cellular phones with video, and most video game systems. The retail price for the Wrap 310 XL is $249.99.
