    Camera glasses that can attach to something like an android handset via USB cable, and act like a UVC-compliant webcam?

    Ok - status update - here's the full implementation outline page: https://blindza.com/camera_glasses/ And, here's a form of podcast recording explaining the software and then a small demo of how I can then work with it in combination with the camera glasses:

    Augmented reality for the blind? - There's an app for that = The vOICe for android

    (audio content - besides the motorcycle with electric-eyes - yes, this is my recording 😉) Explanation and short demonstration relating to using the software in conjunction with a pair of camera sunglasses, and also working with a little bit more A.I. functionality to confirm environment details...

    In-line portable power pack that offers power output on both sides while allowing transmission of data between devices?

    You're right - think the Y-splitter was exactly the type of thing was referring to.

    In-line portable power pack that offers power output on both sides while allowing transmission of data between devices?

    Otherwise, was thinking that simplest would, for now, just be to get hold of a wireless charging power pack, and figure out best way to align it with handset when possible...

    Camera glasses that can attach to something like an android handset via USB cable, and act like a UVC-compliant webcam?

    Ok - final confirmation for now - camera glasses were delivered here just now, and they work perfectly well with the vOICe in conjunction with USB camera pro, and, yes, even tried out walking around my environment a bit asking gemini live screen sharing a couple of questions every now and then...

    Camera glasses that can attach to something like an android handset via USB cable, and act like a UVC-compliant webcam?

    Ok, decided to just "bite the bullet" this morning, and have placed orders for both the mini security webcam from aliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005010109043301.html as well as a pair of the camera sunglasses that seem to match the working ones that Peter Meijer used in his demo...

    Camera glasses that can attach to something like an android handset via USB cable, and act like a UVC-compliant webcam?

    Those are probably the same ones - Peter provided us with links to 2 possible versions via amazon.com as well, but the total import price comes to roundabout ZAR1100+ for now, which is why am trying to figure out cheaper alternatives/local sources, etc. - still quite a bit cheaper than going for...

    Camera glasses that can attach to something like an android handset via USB cable, and act like a UVC-compliant webcam?

    Ok - just to provide a little bit more of an explanation, here's a short little demo video produced by Peter Meijer from https://seeingwithsound.com/ demonstrating the exact type of setup am trying to sort out - just a demo, based on a simple environment, but should explain the overall concept, etc.

    Camera glasses that can attach to something like an android handset via USB cable, and act like a UVC-compliant webcam?

    Unfortunately, in this context, only those that can be made use of as IP cameras will be viable as such - either using OTG adapter and then working through USB camera software, or if they could possibly be connected via something like a mobile wifi hotspot and become available as a streaming...

    Camera glasses that can attach to something like an android handset via USB cable, and act like a UVC-compliant webcam?

    That also looks like it could be made to work pretty much perfectly - one question though, since couldn't find reference to it in spec listing - focal distance,? As in, for example, some of the endoscopic inspection cameras have focal length of like 5-10cm, but in this context, roundabout up to...
