This week, German XR hardware vendor Even Realities is introducing its first smart glasses product: the G1 Digital Glasses. The product combines wearable AR, AI, and LLM technology into a stylish device similar to the Meta Ray Ban portfolio.
Even Realities is aiming to move away from bulky and inaccessible XR wearables, noting that it is focusing on wearability and usability. Due to its usability focus, the firm is promoting its G1 device for extended and daily usage.
Will Wang, Founder of Even Realities, explained that the G1 Digital Glasses helps to “redefine the way people interact with technology.”
The product is still targetting indiviuals familiar with XR, however the firm notes how the glasses cater to productity and workplace usage-from remote working to professioanl offices. Additionally, Even Realities is fully untethered, enabling unrestricted indoor and outdoor use for the G1 product.
Wang also added:
Our vision is to enable users to see what matters in the merge of digital and physical realities, all while staying connected to the world around them.
The firm has not confirmed a release date or regional availability, but as of 2024, this news will soon follow.
Competitive Specs and OS
Like others in the smartglasses market, Even Realities powers its device with a custom OS and UI. The features of the G1 “Even OS” include leading integrations such as real-time translation spoken language translation, step-by-step instructional AR visualisations, AI teleprompter, hands-free note-taking, instant messaging, and work reminder pop-ups. Moreover, in addition to the Even OS features, the G1 smartglasses allow users to leverage genAI and LLM tools, such as ChatGPT.
The G1 device also contains waveguide optics, binocular ocularity, 640×200 resolution, a 25-degree field of view, a 20Hz refresh rate, a micro-LED display, UK protection, two built-in microphones, and wireless charging.
In the future, Even Realities aims to optimise G1 wearability, improve AR visualisations, produce breakthroughs in electronic components, support full-colour light sources, and increase AI support.
