Cyclops Gear CGLife 2 1080p HD Video Glasses (pictures)

It's a small built-in camera, but it's still tough to miss that lens barrel between the eyes.

The polarized lenses offer UV 400 protection.

Cyclops Gear's logo is on the side and is one of the few things that distinguish from the generic versions of these glasses found elsewhere.

A light inside the left arm lets you know when power is on and you're recording.

The light is visible while you're wearing the glasses if they're positioned a bit forward on your nose.

Just press the button. From off to recording takes only a few seconds.

This button also acts as a shutter release for photos and for turning the camera on and off.

The glasses come with a case, USB cable for charging, and a wall adapter. A 4GB microSD card and a cleaning cloth are included as well.

Aside from the lens and sensor in front, the left arm of the glasses is where you'll find the rest of the camera. On the bottom is a microSD card slot that supports cards up to 32GB and a nonstandard eight-pin Micro-USB port, different from the type you'll find on most mobile devices. There is a small flap that covers the port as well as a tiny reset button; after the first time I lifted the flap, it never fit flush with the body again and frequently popped out of place.

The default recording resolution is 1,440x1,080 pixels at 30fps. It can also be set to 720p at 50fps and full HD at 25fps, but the default resolution gets the best results.

The glasses are available from Cyclops Gear for about $150.
