Sony has reportedly revealed its latest experiment that will attach a head-up display on people's glasses.

The company is developing an OLED microdisplay that will provide relevant information in a "high-resolution" 640 x 400 color format, reported The Verge.

The eyewear will have two additional modules, which are designed to rest on top of the wearer's temples, connect up to the microdisplay and provide it with an ARM processor, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, an accelerometer, a touch sensor, and a 400mAh battery.

Sony intends to target sports and business applications first with its eyewear however; the company said that it is keen to promote its wearable device in new areas.
