Oh man, where do I even start? So, Brilliant Labs, with their almost sci-fi vibe, is about to drop their new smart glasses this month. That’s like three devices since 2019. Time flies, I guess, or maybe I’ve just lost track. Anyway, back in ’23, they threw out something called Monocle. I remember it because it clipped onto any old pair of glasses, so kind of like putting a cherry on a boring cake.
Then, 2024 rolls around, and they decided Monocle needed a makeover. Enter Frame. It’s like the older, cooler sibling, also with this camera sensor that literally weighs less than my takeout from last night. Not even kidding, it’s under 40g. That’s impressively slim if you ask me.
Now, Picture this: Frame wants to be your AI buddy, tapping into Perplexity and ChatGPT. Makes me think of having a conversation with my cousin who knows everything—or at least thinks he does. Basically, it answers what you’re curious about through AI magic. I remember reading about live translation too; imagine listening to someone and, like, BAM! It’s translated on the spot. Wild, right?
So, their next gadget is coming July 31st. Peeked a bit on Reddit, CEO Bobak Tavangar plans a Q&A session there. I’m always curious about what these folks say because sometimes they drop those random, unexpected truths.
Saw glimpses of this new device—looks like they’ve ditched the Harry Potter vibe for something sleeker. As always, glasses get curvier, tech gets sharper. Funny how the world works.
Everyone, from Meta teaming with EssilorLuxottica to Xiaomi getting in the game, is releasing smart eyewear. Feels like a tech opera unfolding. Google’s got something cooking too: Android XR glasses, super hush-hush, but Warby Parker and Gentle Monster are involved. Makes me think a tech-fashion crossover is where we’re headed.
Even if Brilliant Labs is playing the lone ranger game with a built-in display right now, Google’s whispering about their own enchanted glasses. Rumor has it Meta might jazz up their version with wrist controllers? Okay, now we’re talking next-level stuff.
Anyway, got lost there. July 31st… can’t wait to see what unfolds. Social media will probably explode. Grab some popcorn and watch the spectacle. Ah, spectacles about spectacles… What a world.
