So I proudly purchased a set of Moverio BT300's and here I am with the latest versions of software and the most problematic system for my $800 investment. I thought Epson and DJI were working in partnership with each other? How do two teams of engineers and software/hardware developers come up with a really cool concept, get it working and then screw it all up? The latest issues with image lag and pixelization are nothing more than overly coded software not working with it's intended system. If we are forced to be limited with the "Epson App" market, then this software needs to go through a more stringent testing phase before it is released. If we can't get our act together, then we (Epson) need to open our architecture up to allow for the use of common applications such as those found on the Android Google Apps Play Store. I purchased this hardware in good faith in that it would work at a level respective to the amount of money I paid for it. I did not get that. My mistake was to sell a perfectly good and operationally sound set of Avegant Glyphs that were working fine for me. The allure of the clear lenses providing LOS operation and the lightweight design lured me into a false sense of confidence that these would improve and enhance my drone flying and photography experience. Currently, I feel more confident flying with my old trusty tablet. Come on guys, get it together. Where is this new set of unbelievable apps that are supposed to open up our lives to new and exciting things? I've read on various posts how we can download the Amazon App Market, side load apps, install apk files and all kinds of "back door" fixes for these obvious problems that everyone with a BT300 is experiencing for their $800 investment. This is not acceptable Epson. And DJI, you need to get your act together as well.
I was an early adopter of the BT300, actually posted a video here a long time ago. With that said, I believe that DJI did work closely with Epson in the early days. But since then DJI has released their own goggles, thus maybe "pushing" Epson aside. |
