	All it takes to immerse in a video is to move the lenses horizontally in front of eyes. Users can adjust for varying distances between eyes and use interchangeable nose pads to ensure great fit.

The Avegant Glyph is advertised as the world’s first personal theater designed to offer high portability and immersive video experience with excellent audio quality. It can be used either as a regular pair of over-the-ear headphones, or it can be flipped over eyes. The Glyph is currently available for $699.

==Design==
Avegant went to great lengths to ensure that the Glyph’s extraordinary multimedia capability is reflected in its design. The basic shape is elegant and strongly resembles traditional headphones. The familiar form factor makes it easy to carry around during travel, and it doesn’t draw nearly as much attention as other head mounted displays.
All it takes to immerse in a video is to move the lenses horizontally in front of eyes. Users can adjust for varying distances between eyes and use interchangeable nose pads to ensure great fit. The Glyph also accommodates for people with poor eyesight. This feature is necessary because it’s not recommended to keep a pair on while using the Glyph.

==Display==
Instead of relying on traditional screens, the Glyph recreates natural sight with Avegant’s patented Retinal Imaging Technology, which uses advanced optics and microscopic mirrors to project images directly to the eyes.
Not only is this technology capable of producing high quality picture with vivid colors, but it’s also very safe and doesn’t cause eyestrain. That’s because the light source is a low-powered Light Emitting Diode (LED) that is combined with a micromirror array and optics to create a very comfortable image that feels natural even after longer periods of time.
The experience is like watching an 80-inch screen viewed 8 feet away, with enough space above and below to see waht’s goign on around in the real world.<ref>http://www.theverge.com/2015/12/15/10180320/avegant-glyph-personal-theater-headset-shipping-media-vr</ref>

==Audio==
The Glyph is equipped with a pair of 40mm high-performance polymer drivers. The over-the-ear design of the driver housing offers a good amount of passive noise isolation for comfortable listening during travel.
Audio can be played either via the built-in HDMI port or the 3.5mm connector.

==Charging==
In video mode, the battery can last up to 4 hours. It takes about 3 hours to charge it to its maximum capacity. During this time, users can use the device in a regular fashion.

==Usage and Compatibility==
The Glyph is designed to work with content from multiple different sources, including smartphones, tables, laptops, consoles, media players, drones, and more. Users can download [https://avegant.com/set-up-support#resources a compatibility guide] for a comprehensive list of tested devices.
Currently, onboard head tracking allows the Glyph to work with the JauntVR player, and compatibility with additional players is expected to be added in a near future.
