========
Q30: Why does your glasses (Top Part) get hot when being used?
A: To achieve the light and sleek design of our AR glasses, we have achieved the goal by centralizing components structure and the Chips were mainly installed on the top part of our AR glasses. Therefore, this could be seen as a normal phenomenon as it would probably generate heat at the location where the Chips are concentrated. For this problem, we strongly suggest our users to STOP using the device once it gets overheating and you may re-start the device until the temperature gets lower. More importantly, to provide our users a better physical experience, this issue would be optimized for the next generation of our product.
========
Q31: Why does your phone/computing unit get hot after long-time connecting with our AR Glasses?
A: Once you plug/connect your glasses into your phone/computing, your phone/computing unit would become Battery Supplier and the provider for Applications running in backstage. In other words, long time using would lead the device consistently running at 'high speed' which could create additional heats within the device. Thus, this is a normal phenomenon which we would kindly recommend customers using the phone or computing unit in a cooling environment. If the overheating issue can not be solved, please LEAVE the device until the temperature gets lower.
========
Q32: Is it normal for the Mobile Phone and Glasses working under slow transition and other crunky issues when using the phone with a low level battery?
A: The phenomenon of slow transtion/lagging issues normally happened, which is because low battery mode would adapt mandatory latency lowering to maximise battery life. In this case, we strongly suggest keeping battery power at a sufficient level while using your glasses.
========
Q33: Why does the light on the controller flash green even though it failed to connect with the computing unit?
A: Please kindly follow the instructions below
- Before turning on the power, please make sure your glasses, computing unit and controller are disconnected.
- Next, switch on your power (Controller & Computing unit), waiting for a couple minutes for the controller light to flash green and for the computing unit's light to stop flashing.
- Plug glasses into your computing unit which launches the glasses, and the interface will show on your phone. The controller's light will turn green or flash green & red, then the white rays in the glasses will be moveable along with the controller.
- When the controller light is flashing green, unplug the glasses, place the controller back on the computing unit, and plug in the glasses. After 5 seconds, the indicator light on the controller will flash blue. That means the controller and computing unit are connected (make sure that the three pad points of the controller are connected well with the ones on computing unit). If the white rays in the glasses are movable then you can start to experience the device. If not, unplug the glasses and repeat the instructions from step 1.
