Sure thing. Here it goes:
So, Brilliant Labs is up to something. Again. Okay, so they’re launching another pair of those fancy smart glasses by the end of the month. And honestly, they’ve been pretty busy since popping up in 2019. This would be the third device—or fourth? Oh, never mind. Numbers are hard.
Remember in 2023 when they came out with Monocle? It was like this little thingy you could clip onto your glasses. Yeah, kinda like adding sprinkles to your regular old glasses—or, not really. But then, bam, they upped their game with Frame. Sounds sleek, right? It took the whole heads-up display idea to another level by shoving it inside something that actually looked like glasses. Lightweight too. Less than 40g, I’ve heard. I wonder if they weighed them with or without the dust. Just kidding. Sort of.
Okay, so Frame wasn’t just about style. It was meant to be your own AI sidekick. From what I’ve gathered, it’s kinda like having Siri or Alexa, but right in front of your eyes. Useful or creepy? You decide. Anyway—wait, where was I? Oh yeah, accessing stuff like ChatGPT on the go, getting real-time translations, the works. It’s like the Swiss Army knife of glasses.
And now, the suspense is killing me—what’s next on July 31st? There’s this thin layer of mystery, like an old film noir. I heard Bobak Tavangar, the CEO guy, is doing a big Q&A on Reddit. Augmented reality subreddit, to be specific. If Reddit were a movie, it’d probably win an Oscar for ‘Most Plot Twists.’
From what I can see, literally, they’ve revamped the look. No more Harry Potter vibes. I kinda liked that, though. Anyhow, let’s see what the new look is. Meanwhile, keep an eye on Reddit. Not literally. Or maybe.
Oh, did I mention the smart glasses scene is boiling over? Meta has teamed up with EssilorLuxottica for something new, and Xiaomi’s jumping in too. It’s like the Wild West out here. And Google’s not sitting on the sidelines either—they’re buddying up with Warby Parker. I half expect to see a smart monocle or something next—seems fitting, right?
So, Brilliant Labs isn’t exactly alone anymore. Google might be flashing a new Android XR model soon. Maybe a wrist controller too? Who comes up with this stuff—it’s like James Bond’s tech team got a new gig building eyewear.
Anyway, let’s just see what happens. Pop some popcorn, settle in. End of the month will tell all, or most. Who knows?
There you have it.
