The onboard computer captures data from the surroundings through a camera or other sensor and processes it to render and display an overlay of information over the real world to create an augmented reality experience. Depending on the nature of the processing, the amount of computational power required varies.
The projector projects an overlay of information produced by the computer onto the screen to allow the user to see an increased amount of information beyond what is in the real world.
The camera is a primary source of input that allows both the computer to understand the world around the user and the user to capture the world on demand without the need to pull out a phone.
The screen is generally a transparent piece of glass or polycarbonate to allow for the user to be able to see the overlay without obstructing vision of the real world.
