Live video, in view.
From your phone or your own camera.
Cinema is a small video player for your Maverick AI or AI Pro glasses: a test clip, your phone’s camera, or an RTSP stream from your own IP camera, drone or PC.
What it is.
Cinema shows video on the see-through display of Everysight Maverick AI and AI Pro glasses. Choose a bundled 10-second test clip, your phone’s back or front camera, an RTSP stream from a camera or server you run, or a live test pattern. Your phone does the video work, encoding the camera and re-encoding streams, and sends a small, silent picture to the glasses.
The camera view was designed with a magnifier or a rear view in mind. Cinema needs no account or API key and contacts no outside service. Only streams use the network, straight from your phone to the address you type in the GlintOS phone companion app.
What you get.
Your phone camera, live
The back or front camera at 304 × 224, with Flip and, when the camera reports a zoom range, Zoom.
Your own RTSP stream
An rtsp:// or rtsps:// stream over TCP or UDP from an IP camera, drone or PC, re-encoded on the phone to 400 × 224.
Reconnects by itself
A stream that fails or stalls shows CONNECTING and is retried, up to 10 times in a row.
A live stats line
Picture size, frames per second, kbit/s and the link bitrate, under the picture.
Brightness you choose
From 20 to 100%, set on the phone. Lower lets more of the world show through.
On your glasses.
Cinema
A paged list: Sample clip, Phone camera, Stream (its host name, or SET ON PHONE), Live pattern and any saved clips.
Clip player
Position and length, a progress rail, a PLAYING or PAUSED chip, and Pause, Start and Skip. Clips loop.
Camera, Stream and Pattern
The live picture with a pulsing LIVE chip, the stats line and Pause, plus Flip and Zoom for the phone camera.
Video is in use and problems
Cancel or Take over when another app shows video. Stream lost, Camera needs permission and Glasses disconnected offer Try again.
How you control it.
| Swipe forward | Next source row or player button. Pages turn with focus. |
|---|---|
| Swipe back | Previous row or button. |
| Tap | Plays the focused source, or presses the focused button such as Pause, Skip, Flip or Try again. |
| Long tap | Closes the video, or goes Home from the list. If Long tap is set to Assistant, it starts the assistant instead. |
| Voice | Optional, through the GlintOS assistant when available: ask for the camera, the stream or stop. Anything else plays the test clip. |
Gestures come from the temple touchpad on Maverick AI and AI Pro glasses. An optional R08+ smart ring can send the same gestures from your finger.
Home and phone.
Status and stats, Pause or Play and Stop, Watch buttons for each built-in source, and back and front camera chips.
The only place to enter an RTSP address: a field with TCP and UDP chips and Play stream, which saves and starts it.
A brightness slider and any saved clips. Starting anything here opens Cinema on the glasses first.

These rows are about Cinema. GlintOS itself also needs internet on the phone the first time it connects to your glasses and about once a month after that, when the glasses’ security certificate is renewed.
Set it up.
- Install GlintOS on an Android 11 or later phone and connect your glasses.
- Open Cinema on the glasses and tap Sample clip for a first test.
- For the phone camera, tap Phone camera and allow the camera on your phone, then tap Try again if needed.
- For a stream, type its rtsp:// address on Cinema’s page in the phone companion app, choose TCP or UDP and tap Play stream.
Your data.
- Cinema saves only its settings on your phone, including the stream address and any password in it, in private, unencrypted storage excluded from cloud backup.
- The glasses show only the stream’s host name. The camera picture goes only to your glasses and is never recorded.
- Pause keeps the camera or stream open. Leaving Cinema stops everything, and Clear data on its phone page deletes what it saved.
Good to know.
- GlintOS is an independent project in development, with the free public APK planned for December 2026. Phone camera and streams are not yet verified, and real-glasses validation is pending.
- The picture is small and silent, at most 15 frames per second and about 440 kbit/s.
- You cannot add your own clips yet, and clip files must already be baseline H.264 that fits the glasses’ video memory.
- Only one app can show video at a time, and only while it is on screen. After 10 failed tries, a stream shows Stream lost.
Questions.
Can I watch video on Maverick AI glasses?
Yes, with GlintOS and its Cinema mini-app on an Android phone. It plays a test clip, your phone’s camera or an RTSP stream from a source you run, small and silent.
Can Cinema play movies or online video?
No. Cinema contacts no video service. It plays its test clip, your phone camera, your own RTSP stream and clip files already in its storage.
Does Cinema need an account, API key or internet?
No account and no API key. A network connection is needed only for streams.
Can I use my phone as a magnifier or rear view?
Cinema was designed with that in mind. Pick Phone camera, point or mount the phone, and the glasses show its camera live. It is not yet verified on real glasses.
How do I watch my IP camera or drone feed?
Type its rtsp:// address on Cinema’s page in the GlintOS phone companion app, choose TCP or UDP and tap Play stream. Cinema opens on the glasses and reconnects if the stream drops.
