Abstract

The present invention provides interactive glasses including a frame, a lens, and a positioning unit, a processing unit and a display unit all fixed to the frame. The positioning unit is used for obtaining location information of current location of the interactive glasses; the processing unit is used for obtaining a relative location relation between the current location and a target location and the information of a route from the current location to the target location according to the location information of the current location and the target location; and the display unit is used for displaying image information of the route from the current location to the target location. Accordingly, the present invention further provides a navigation system. The interactive glasses can provide route from the current location to the target location for users to enable users to reach the target location quickly.
