Brilliant Labs is the name of a new startup founded by a former employee Applu, who decided to offer the world AR glasses that look like classic sunglasses or prescription glasses. Bobak Tavangar, former lead engineer Applu promises its Frame glasses that can offer artificial intelligence superpowers. All control works via a voice assistant called Noa and is always online. The startup offers the glasses for pre-order for $349 in three colors variantách, including a modern translucent version.
The Frame glasses themselves weigh 40 grams and offer all-day battery life. They have a microOLED display, which is displayed in front of the user using a prism, similar to the head-up display we know from ordinary vehicles. The Frame software is open-source and all its files are available on Github, including the source code.
Frame is designed so that right after unpacking you can start using the glasses and communicate with them using the Noa assistant. The following videos will best show you what they can do. These are the possibilities of visual analysis of everything that the user looks at. For example, when eating, you look at your plate and immediately see how many calories you are eating. If you click on any inscription, it will appear translated into your native language. You can also search the internet, project images right in front of you, and so on.
Brilliant Labs has integrated several AI models to power Frame's features, including conversational web search using Perplexity AI. A tourist in a foreign country can use Frame to translate signs and find directions, for example. Or a shopper can see a pair of shoes in a store, search the web for the same brand and compare prices. Of course, Frame does not aim to compete with headsets like it Vision Pro od Applu, but it tries to make users' lives more comfortable at a reasonable price, in the most ergonomic way on the market.
Good idea too
Hmm, yes something like that but with options Vision Pro. This is quite a stretch.
