Unistellar Envision binoculars promise to point out trails and landmarks for you on your hike, or if you’re ever worried about getting lost in the woods.
Have you ever made it to the end of a hike with a scenic overlook and argued with your friend about the name of a river many miles away? I have. Google Maps wasn’t any help, but perhaps if I had Unistellar ’s upcoming Envision AR binoculars in hand to label those faraway landmarks, we could have put that bickering to bed. Unistellar is mostly known for making smart telescopes, but now the company is going back to its Kickstarter roots to promote a pair of AR binoculars.
Unistellar claims its database contains information on more than 1,000 distant nebulae, galaxies, and star clusters. It should also house more than 1 million landmarks on Earth, including mountain peaks, caves, springs, and shelters. There’s currently no precise list of locations, though the company did mention the current GPS API does not work in China. You’re sure to spend hundreds of dollars more on the Envision than a regular, quality pair of binoculars.
