ROCHESTER, N.Y., Jan. 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Vuzix® Corporation (NASDAQ: VUZI), ("Vuzix" or, the "Company"), a leading supplier of Smart Glasses and Augmented Reality (AR) technology and products, today announced that the Vuzix M4000 Smart Glasses were recently used to perform a successful worksite inspection via a DJI Mavic 2 Pro drone used by Drones4Geology, a Barcelona based provider of geologic-related drone services. The combined technology was used to access hard to reach areas and bring a different perspective of the study area to the end customers including the inspection of cranes, elevated facilities and various machinery. 

"With the Vuzix M4000 Smart Glasses and my DJI Mavic 2 Pro drone, I was able to perform a complex flight in very narrow areas and camera view to ensure the best capture of the facilities I was monitoring. In summary, I was able to perform my work in a much safer way as I was in visual control of the drone every moment," commented Fernando Borràs Castelló, Co-Founder of Drones4Geology. 

"The Vuzix M4000 Smart Glasses are being put to work to solve business problems by our customer base.  Drone4sGeology is another example of a customer that has turned to Vuzix Smart Glasses to better support its business operations and customers in its day-to-day activities," said Paul Travers, President and CEO of Vuzix.
