iGlasses Ultrasonic Mobility Aid
User Manual
Important Safety Information
The iGlasses are a secondary mobility device and must not be
used on their own without another primary device such as a long
cane, mobility cane, or guide dog. They are intended to warn you
only of obstacles that may impact your head or upper body. They
do not provide protection against, or warning of, any other
obstacles or dangerous situations. The warning is in the form of a
vibration from the frame of the iGlasses.
Turning the iGlasses On/Off
Press and hold for one second the round on/off button which is
located on the right-hand arm of the iGlasses.
You will hear beeps which indicate the level of battery charge:
• Four beeps:

Fully charged

• Three beeps:

75% charged

• Two beeps:

50% charged

• One beep:

25% charged

• Ten beeps:

Battery level too low for operation.
Charging required.

To turn the iGlasses off, press and hold down the on/off button for
approximately one second. You will hear a single beep confirming
they are now switched off.

iGlasses operation
The arms are adjustable and can be set to the most comfortable
length by gently, but firmly, pulling the end of the arm away from
the lens area.
When the iGlasses are on, the sending sensor will emit a
continuous stream of ultrasonic signals. At the same time, the
receiving sensor will detect the reflection of the ultrasonic signal
and calculate the distance to the obstacle. The two sensors are
located above the lenses on the front of the frame.
Obstacles that are more than 3 meters (10 feet) away will be
ignored. Any object within 3 meters will trigger a vibration in the
iGlasses. The frequency of the vibration pulse will gradually
increase as the object gets closer until at a distance of 0.7
meters, (2 feet) the vibration becomes continuous. The ultrasonic
signals are emitted from the iGlasses in an overlapping cone
shaped pattern to maximize object detection.

Fine tuning the iGlasses
The iGlasses are delivered to you with the vibration level tuned to
the lowest intensity. The intensity level can be adjusted to your
preferred setting by rotating the thumbwheel on the underside of
the right side of the frame. Turn the wheel towards the lens to
increase the intensity. Away from the lens decreases the
intensity.

Charging the iGlasses
To recharge the battery, plug the provided charger into the small
round hole between the intensity thumbwheel and the lens, on the
underside of the right hand side of the frame. The built-in battery
is a 3.7V 600mAh rechargeable Li-ion.
The iGlasses will beep for two seconds to indicate that the charge
cycle has successfully started and will beep again for two
seconds when the battery reaches full charge. The charger will
automatically deactivate when the battery is fully charged.
A full charge will take 2.5 hours (maximum). Only use with the
power adapter supplied.
