Came across this review on YouTube: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fxtl9VChZhM

Monochrome (green) head mounted display that looks like a regular pair of glasses. Mainly useful as a HUD. Has a microphone but no speakers. Seems to have basic head tracking. Marketing claims a day and a half of battery life with light use.

Main Features:

  • Teleprompter
  • Live Translation
  • Speech-to-Text 30-Second Notes
  • Phone Notifications
  • AI Assistant (an LLM)
  • GPS navigation
  • Time/Date/Weather

Just looked it up and these cost $600. +$100 for sun clips. +$150 for prescription lenses.

At that price point, these likely won't gain mainstream adoption.
