Safe connected work.
World’s best hands-free wearable rugged Android tablet for industrial workers.
The HMT-1 has a completely hands-free voice-controlled user interface allowing workers to operate the tools and equipment needed for the job, even while climbing a scaffold or tower. Allowing the worker to maintain full situational awareness and maximum productivity, HMT-1 is faster, safer and smarter than either a tablet or smart glasses.

Productivity is not about working harder. It’s about working smarter every day. Every aspect of the HMT-1 augmented reality headset was built to enhance worker performance.
Safety is the top concern of every industry. The HMT-1 is designed with safety in mind to help keep your eyes up and your hands on the job, with 100% situational awareness.
Training is not a one-and-done. The new generation of industrial workforce learns by video. The HMT-1 is built to move knowledge across a workforce in minutes.
The HMT-1 reality-first headset uses four microphones and advanced algorithms to perform noise cancellation prior to voice recognition.
Workers can navigate applications and enter text and numbers just by speaking in a normal voice with accurate performance even in 95 dBA of typical industrial noise.
There’s no need for a wake-up word. HMT-1 rugged Android tablet gives you immediate response. You’ll hear our trademark chirp tone and see immediate on-screen confirmation of successful voice recognition.
No Internet connection needed to navigate augmented reality applications – voice recognition is built-in and built for speed.
Voice + Noise
Voice + Reduced Noise
The HMT-1 is the result of over a decade of design and innovation.
…have you ever noticed that distinctive ‘antenna’ on the top of Boba Fett’s helmet? That device is not an antenna, it is a miniaturized wearable computer called a ‘Range Finder’ and the similarities to RealWear’s HMT-1 are no accident. Because, shortly after Pete Rozani designed the Episode VI Boba Fett costume, Pete and Stephen Pombo (RealWear’s VP of Industrial Design) started working together. After the movie, they spent years collaborating together, developing industrial grade wearable computers and co-authoring many patents for the system, dating all the way back to 1996. An example of art leading technology, we now affectionately refer to as the HMT-0.
For more than a decade, Chris has worked in the head-mounted industrial computer industry. Since first conceiving the Golden-I while at Kopin, Chris has always been confident that building a fully rugged and true ‘hands-free’ monocular device was the path to success across industry. Chris felt that other wearable computer products were purely aspirational, like “concept cars”, and had little chance to get to scale in the harsh industrial environments. Chris is a hyper-intelligent PhD (minor in sarcastic humor), a bold risk-taker and stubbornly persistent. A true inventor and the spark that brought us together.
Only one person like him on Earth because after Stephen was designed, they broke the mold. Stephen is the most humble person that you will ever meet. However, don’t let his quiet austere manner fool you, behind those bright eyes is an unparalleled wisdom and talent that we all count ourselves lucky to be around. Stephen’s life stories are legendary, and if you ever meet him, ask him about the 2nd DeLorean car he worked on (think ‘Great Scott!’).
