First ever Augmented Reality Therm App helmet
THIS IS A FREE BLOG ON HOW TO BUILD IT !
We are proud to say that this was the first ever holographic AR thermal helmet out in 2016, since then a few other companies have developed ones for various uses, one being fire rescue. We only made one unit and it sold the person whom also purchased the therm app unit, they are not easy to make so we did not go into production, however we have put our build instructions on here for any one who would like to make one. How does it work…..well just watch the video below, as a picture paints a thousand words!
