      Wearing the Device 

      Wearing the device properly is an important step. First, determine your eye dominance to find out which side to place the display. It’s key to fit the device to your head correctly and position the display so you can see all four corners of the screen. You will need to adjust the display each time you wear the device, so it’s good to become familiar with moving the boom arm and how to tilt the display for your best viewing experience.  

      Voice Commands 

      RealWear devices are primarily operated by speech recognition using voice commands. Instead of tapping or pressing on a button, simply speak the words on the screen to make a selection. 

      RealWear One Application

      The RealWear One app allows users to configure settings on the RealWear device, generate custom QR codes, and more. Download the app for free on the Apple App Store and the Google Play store, or by using the QR code below:
