An Introduction to the VERSE API
VERSE stands for Vision Enhancement Resource Software Environment. It is Augmate’s framework (software) for augmented reality glasses that is designed to be device independent and platform agnostic. There are three parts to VERSE: The 1) API, 2) UI, and 3) Tools.
The Verse API is a set of functions to make it easy to create apps and tools. VERSE also allows developers to create different user interfaces based on their requirements. Finally, VERSE allows developers to create and define different tools for facial recognition, voice recognition, object recognition, and gesture recognition.
There a few basic pre-requirements for VERSE
Development Tools:

VERSE is currently on an SVN server and will be available on GitHub and SourceForge for the v1.0 release. We welcome programmers to join our extended network and develop applications for this exciting new technology.
