Slide and hold the power switch for 5-10 seconds to check for the glasses notification LED indicator. The LED will blink white for about 12 seconds and will turn solid green when the glasses are ready to use. 3.

A: You can cancel or exit any assistance function or inbound notification by doing a Tap & Hold gesture on the captouch sensor.
Q: DESPITE HAVING SOME BATTERY LEFT, I AM UNABLE TO RECORD VIDEOS. WHY?
A: Video capture is a power heavy use case and for a small battery with less than 15% charge there is a significant brownout risk (voltage drop that could damage the battery). In order to protect the battery (from brownout) and make sure the users are able to record at least 60 second videos, Supernova enforces certain minimum power thresholds. if the minimum power threshold is not met, then the users are blocked from recording videos. At room temperatures the threshold is 10% at 25°C and 15% at 20°C battery temperatures, however at lower temperatures the battery has higer brownout risk and thresholds are much higher.
