Vuzix M300 Smart Glasses Gains Mac & PC Screen Mirroring via iDisplay

Screen mirroring app iDisplay has arrived for Vuzix M300 Smart Glasses.

With the app installed on the M300 and the companion software running on a Mac or Windows computer, users can mirror or extend the computer's desktop to the headset's display, which is connected to the computer via Wi-Fi or USB cable. The app does not yet appear on Vuzix's app store.
