Now that the Apple Vision Pro are revolutionizing everything that has to do with virtual reality and augmented reality, the company Brilliant Labs has presented Frame, glasses with artificial intelligence that is closer to what you could imagine about smart glasses. Basically because you are not wearing a block of aluminum on your forehead, but rather normal glasses. But what are these lenses capable of?
Some glasses with superpower
Brilliant Labs is a very young company founded by a former Apple employee that seeks to revolutionize the technology market with minimalist and highly functional designs. And one of the products of it is Frame, very stylish glasses that hide quite surprising technology with which to obtain all kinds of information directly on your retina.
The secret is, obviously, in the use of artificial intelligence with the seal of OpenAI, which will be able to identify objects, places or translate texts thanks to a small camera installed in the frame of the glasses. You can also ask questions and get answers, or get an instant translation of a conversation.
The design of the glasses is quite surprising, since they have managed to place a small camera right on the bridge of the glasses, in addition to including a OLED micro display with which to project apparently only text on the right glass. This way we can enjoy a floating image as Google Glass already did, so that we can have data such as indications and information in real time.
However, it does not seem to include speakers (at least they are not indicated in the virtual exploded view of its website), so it seems that everything will be limited to the floating image of the glass.
An open source project
But if there is something especially interesting about this product, it is that its code is completely open, so any enthusiast will be able to work with it to give life to new functions, ideas and projects with which to enhance the capabilities of Frame, which is especially interesting. looking to the future.
Is it a real product?
Experience tells us that with this type of presentations with an air of concept we must keep our distance, but nothing could be further from reality, since the brand is accepting reservations with a price of 329 dollars for the ungraded models, and 448 dollars for the version with graduated lenses.
As indicated on the website, the first batch of glasses will be shipped on April 15, so we are facing an imminent launch of a product that, if it works correctly, could mark a new era as Peeble already did with smart watches. .
We will be attentive to see the first impressions of the models that will be sent soon, since there is no doubt that it will be a product that we will have to follow very closely.
