[ANN] Lucyd - Welcome to Lucyd, the new Augmented Reality World

[Tator]

Indeed this is a great project... When I first saw it, I had no doubt it will breakeven and exceed expectations.
I am an investor, and very hopeful to the investment I made! 

[gogok]

this project is interesting, the team behind it just exciting, so I'm pretty sure I will join this project
we just need to invest as much as we can in this project!

I do not think so. It is not worth investing in one project. It is not safe.
But I can not deny that I am delighted with this project. Do you already have a prototype. If it looks like ordinary glasses, and they perform all these functions, then this is fantastic.
I'm waiting for the prototype video review.

Hi! Haven't read wp so maybe I could ask here. Who if at all are your similar competitors? And how does Lucyd differs from them?

Hello,
Lucyd doesn't have a direct competitor. But some of the big tech companies that tried to produce smartglasses are: GoogleGlass/Hololens. We get this question often times and the answer is that Lucyd is very different from existing AR solutions because our tech is truly next-generation. Our 13 AR patents enable thin micro displays for a richly textured, dynamically layered AR experience, unlike existing smartglasses that use a protruding external display. This tech also enables Lucyd Lens to be the first smartglass that is compatible with prescription lenses, and looks like a normal pair of glasses. As a result we envision Lucyd Lens to be available in a wide range of frame styles for men, women and children. Lucyd also has an advanced patent for real-world object detection, allowing its AR interface to more smoothly intermingle digital content with the real world.

Can you please tell me what's the benefits of this coin? And what is the minimum purchase?

LCD token has several functions. Its initial use is to fund the development of the Lucyd Lens prototype. LCD will also facilitate rapid peer-to-peer transactions in the Lucyd AR world, and is used to organically motivate user and developer engagement with Lucyd Lens. It accomplishes this through the Lucyd Lab blockchain, on which new AR content & apps are registered. Blocks then release LCD to developers based on user ratings of their content, and to users based on their feedback to the developer community, and participation in ads and promotions. LCD can be used to purchase AR products from Lucyd and other developers, as well as bought and sold on token exchanges. Purchasing 5000 LCD ($1150 with 10% bonus) by the end of the ICO is enough to reserve a beta Lucyd Lens. You must retain at least 5000 LCD to exchange for the Lens in Q1 2019 when available. LCD will become tradeable for BTC on the Blockbid exchange in March. Hope this helps

Thank you for your support! We have just hit our soft cap funding goal, with about $2.5 million raised! Once our ICO ends (28 February, 2018), we will start developing a pre-production prototype of Lucyd Lens, as well as to create the Lucyd Lab blockchain. So stay tuned on updates!

I don’t trying to be negative here, just a question : Dont you think other companies, like sony, samsung and Nvidia will make this better, just because they have more money, more skilled specialists etc.?

Hey, good question! There have been lots of companies that tried to produce smartglasses but they have failed (like GoogleGlass and Hololens). Most smartglasses that have ever been marketed out there looks very bulky and uncomfortable. Lucyd is very different from existing AR solutions because our tech is truly next-generation. Lucyd’s 13 AR patents enable thin micro displays for a richly textured, dynamically layered AR experience, unlike existing smartglasses that use a protruding external display. This tech also enables Lucyd Lens to be the first smartglass that is compatible with prescription lenses, and looks like a normal pair of glasses. As a result we envision Lucyd Lens to be available in a wide range of frame styles for men, women and children. Lucyd also has an advanced patent for real-world object detection, allowing its AR interface to more smoothly intermingle digital content with the real world.

Have you already decided what kind of lenses will be used for glasses?

We will start working on the first prototype development, the Beta Lens. Thus far the optical system and front-end UX only are in development, we are evaluating hardware solutions now. But the Lens will start as a smartphone periphery, harnessing it for processing power and data signal. Smartphone is the motherboard, Lens is simply the monitor and “cursor,” or input device, so the actual on-board computing power of the Lens will be limited to keep it light, stylish and comfortable.

[Lucyd]

Are there some kind of researches about are VR/AR glasses safe for eyes?

Hello, please read the analysis of Lucyd's AR technology by Dr. Yiorgos Kostoulas https://www.lucyd.co/2017/12/22/DRKOSTOULAS/
and Scientific Analysis of Lucyd Patents by Lucyd Optics Lead, Dr. Kayat <https://www.lucyd.co/2017/10/31/SCIENTIFIC-ANALYSIS-OF-LUCYD-PATENTS-BY-LUCYD-OPTICS-LEAD-DR-KAYAT/>.
In addition, you will be able to use the Lens like normal glasses, with no AR at any time while using Lens, you can simply say “Dream Deferred” (or a custom phrase) to disengage the AR and return to natural sight. We are also considering adding two additional features where you can also snap near the Lens or blink for three seconds to engage/disengage the AR interface.

Very interesting project idea! How is ICO? How much money has been collected already? I would like to join you!

Hello, thank you for your support. Our ICO has started in October 2017 and will end on 28 February, 2018. We have just hit our soft cap funding goal, with about $2.5 million raised, our goal is to reach the hardcap, $10 million. We will start the pre prototype production after the ICO ends. Stay tuned!

[Lucyd]

Hi! That is totally worth it to take part in a project like this! But who are your target audience?

Hey, thanks for ur interest. Anyone interested in cryptocurrency & blockchain technology, as well in Augmented Reality is our market.

[Lucyd]

Will there be several styles for glasses? Male/Female models?

Totally! We will soon start the production of the first prototype Beta Lens. It will be available in different styles and colors once they are out for the mass market.

[Lucyd]

Hello!  Is there a bounty running for this project?

yes it is!

[Lucyd]

Hi there
How much coins needed for the glasses? And are they still available?

Yes, you can reserve the pair till 28th of February if you participate in our ICO. Purchasing 5000 LCD tokens ($1150 with 10% bonus) by the end of the ICO is enough to reserve a beta Lucyd Lens. You must retain at least 5000 LCD to exchange for the Lens in Q1 2019 when available. LCD will become tradeable for BTC on the Blockbid exchange in March.

all can very well be. but there are still so many talented people who have nothing to do with these giant companies. And while they are working in projects of more scale, it can still work out. At least until they were enticed by others ...

[prety-love]

I'd like to see this project integrated with others - like gaming projects or educational. I'm waiting for the prototype video review (after ICO ends).

I think that style and color is not the last thing. And yet, the primary goal is production and functional ability.
I can not imagine how difficult it is to produce such a product.
Apparently you have super engineers.

[Gajurus]

Basically why should I invest in this project? I want community opinion

[Gozragore]

Lucyd is surely bringing plenty of attention itself!

I'm not sure if there is anything like it, or is maybe it's the first. Whatever it is, this one is certain!

I wouldn't mind to be part of the Bounty program if it is available.

So an actually looking forward to this and how it will develop.

[Dondallon]

its probably the best project out there, considering quality of the team and idea itself
but how many rounds of this ico?

[Captain_Killer]

hi, i was very interested in the project, I would like to join, but I want to first find as much information about the project as possible
