These camera glasses are amazing - and they are doing something no one else is doing. Not only is the hardware is top class, but unlike the Meta Raybans, these glasses were created with an open-source OS and an App Store from the start. Instead of trying to lock...

We put 1000s of hours into building open-source camera glasses And now we're giving away everything we learned for free. Checkout this in-depth teardown of the Mentra Live smart glasses. As an OS company, our goal is to spread our OS. That goal encourages us to do crazy things, like build the world's best AI glasses for business and then show you how we made them... all in the name of spreading the OS. It also convinced us to make it 100% open source, so adoption is faster and easier. We're at risk of our competitors easily copypasting our code now... all in the name of spreading our OS. Now we've built the glasses for you, and we've taken the risk, and we've released an open SDK. Now your AI apps and agents can enter the real world on smart glasses. So now, what will you build?

People often ask how did the Unitree robots get so good all of a sudden. It wasn't all of a sudden, and it's because they ship their hardware and open source their SDKs. Arguably these robots are nearly useless out of the box, but you have full dev control of them. Because of that, the hardware has become a very popular R&D platform with an ecosystem around it and the Unitree G1 is undoubtedly an order of magnitude better than it could ever be at this point if Unitree was instead just doing quiet internal dev of both the hardware and software. Too many hardware companies for really cool products that seek to be community-driven (robots, AR glasses...etc) desire to make a profitable walled garden and their greed just ends up walling out developers and their product gets outpaced by the G1s of the world.

$META delaying the launch of Ray-Ban Display smart glasses in Europe due to higher-than-expected demand in the US is great news. The numbers are still irrelevant, but Zuck’s vision — where the ~2 billion people who already wear glasses every day eventually switch to smart glasses — is slowly starting to gain traction. A world where smart glasses become the default device for many isn’t that far away. And for now, META is years ahead of its closest competitor. All $META needs to do is successfully integrate these smart glasses with a frontier AI model.

We built the open source alternative to the Meta Raybans: Last year, I dropped out of MIT This year, we raised $8 million to build open source smart glasses Now, we’re launching our first smart glasses for devs: open source, with a software development kit, and an app store. A canvas for makers to easily build the upgrades we dreamed of as kids. Tools at your fingertips to expand our minds and unlock new powers And we're just getting started. Peep the website and join the movement with MentraLabs

IMAGINE MARK ZUCKERBERG IS RIGHT: In a recent interview with Complex, Zuckerberg talks about the future of the Meta glasses He talks about the transition from flip phones to smart phones, when smart phones came out it was clear that in 5 years all flip phones would become them He used this same concept on glasses. Billions of people wear glasses if that is for actual need or even sunglasses, and now technological infused glasses are coming out and who is the leader in it? Mark Zuckerberg and Meta What if Zuckerberg is right and in 5 years from now it will be the norm to have some level of technology in your eyewear? $META would go to a whole new level if that event played out

Bloomberg's Mark Gurman on the recent investigation alleging that Meta subcontractors reviewed video captured by customers’ smart glasses, including highly sensitive material: "I think it raises really big questions about the smart glasses category." "This is reminiscent of when people figured out that Apple with Siri... had these folks called annotation analysts who listen to everything you're putting into the voice assistant." "[The Meta allegations don't concern] audio. This is camera footage. This is people potentially in intimate moments. I think that raises really big questions about the smart glasses category..." "At the same time, I don't think this changes the overall equation for smart glasses. I still think that this has been a successful pioneering product for Meta. In this case, with the smart glasses, the first-mover advantage is real."

These are the Rokid Glasses A pair of smart glasses very similar to the Meta RayBan but powered by the AR1, with the addition of a Monochrome binocular Waveguide display for Live translation, Ai recognition, teleprompter, navigation and more. Plus like the RayBan camera and audio. The live translation was surprisingly good, and fast. They are already available in China. Hopefully we will get them in the US soon! They are just 49 grams! It's crazy to see how the smart glasses are evolving fast. #CES2025 #rokid The last video is from their Air Max 2 6DoF version, for AR at the museum!

🚨 META’S “SPY GLASSES” ARE ALREADY GETTING BANNED FROM BARS AND PUBS — AND THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING Meta’s smart glasses are facing a growing wave of bans across the UK. Bars, restaurants, and even courts in England and Wales are prohibiting them over fears that people can secretly record others without consent. The Guardian reports the backlash is spreading fast. Meta insists every pair has an LED light that blinks when recording and that covering the light disables the camera. They claim the light can’t be turned off or removed. But videos are already circulating showing exactly how to disable the recording light. Privacy advocates say this is only the beginning of the pushback. Would you feel comfortable sitting next to someone wearing these glasses in a bar… or should they be banned everywhere public by default?

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg on why glasses are the ideal form factor for AI: "Every new important technology needs a new class of devices to make it first class." "You take out your phone, you're gone from the moment. Glasses can bring that back." "It's really the only form factor that can bring together the physical world around you with realistic holograms and blend those together. One of the crazier things about living in the modern world is that we have this incredibly rich online world, and you access it through a 5-inch screen most of the time. It's only a matter of time before these two things are basically fully merged, and glasses enable all of that. That's kind of been the plan all along."

Zuckerberg reveals that the near-term unlock for AI is agentic AI. This is moving away from the one-question, one-answer prompt model. $META is pivoting its consumer hardware to facilitate an always-on AI assistant. Zuckerberg envisions users tuning their glasses from 30 minutes of live AI engagement to eventually all day. The AI will proactively watch, listen, and offer assistance without being explicitly prompted. The glasses are the mechanism for this level of AI context. Smartphones in pockets cannot provide the continuous visual and auditory data stream needed for ambient AI. I see the vision 😏

🚨 KMART IS SELLING $89 CAMERA GLASSES THAT SECRETLY RECORD YOU — AND THEY’RE ALREADY SOLD OUT Spying just got a whole lot cheaper. Kmart is now selling Anko camera glasses for only $89. That’s less than a fifth of the price of Meta’s official smart glasses. These look like regular glasses… but they can record video and audio of everything happening around you. All that footage and audio doesn’t stay on the device. It gets sent straight to the servers of a Chinese company that built the AI system behind them. Kmart stores in Australia have already completely sold out. Women online immediately raised the alarm, pointing out how easy it would be for creeps to secretly film people in public without anyone knowing. Kmart’s official response? They basically said: “We expect customers to use them responsibly.” That’s it. At this price point, these glasses won’t stay niche. They’re about to flood the market and eventually show up in everyday prescription frames, reading glasses, and sunglasses. You won’t be able to tell who’s recording… and who isn’t. $89. Secret cameras on people’s faces. Data going overseas. Mass rollout coming. Are we really okay with living in a world where anyone can secretly film you for less than $100?

THIS IS INSANE! Moslems in Birmingham, an invaded city, stating on camera that they want to implement Sharia law and for Islam to become the majority religion very soon. They claim that, to achieve this, they are organizing politically to change the laws and to have more and more Moslem representatives. They also say on camera that they’re in favor of stoning a woman for adultery. This is the United Kingdom in 2026. these are Keir Starmer’s voters.

🚨ICE and Border Patrol agents are once again threatening U.S. citizens for exercising their constitutional rights… this time in Richfield, Minnesota. In the video, agents swarm a car belonging to a U.S. citizen who is doing nothing more than observing them… which is a protected First Amendment right. Instead of respecting the Constitution, they start barking threats: “This is your one and only warning to quit obstructing us.” The driver calmly responds, “I’m not obstructing you.” Then one agent delivers the line that sums up the whole problem: “This is your one warning, you will be arrested for impeding.” They’re not being impeded. They’re being watched…. and they don’t like that the public is finally paying attention. This is what happens when agencies with a long record of abuse realize people know their rights: they lash out, they threaten, and they try to intimidate citizens into silence. But, observing law enforcement is not a crime. Threatening Americans for doing it absolutely is.

You can see from the nuance that Zuck thinks we are in an AI CapEx bubble. But since this is a race & $META is one of the most financially stable ones in this race, they are willing to push the race further for competitors to fail, even if it means $META overspend a few $100B.

I just called my Mom from my smart glasses. Introducing video calls on Mentra Live smart glasses. Join Google Meet, Teams, or Zoom call directly from your glasses. Imagine field workers like HVAC techs, electricians, or mechanics calling into an expert remotely. The expert can see what they see and have a live voice call with them, getting help exactly when they need it. You might have seen a demo like this before... so what's different here? It's all about wearability. Classical enterprise smart glasses are heavy, uncomfortable, and never make it past pilot pergatory. Mentra Live are super lightweight and shaped like regular glasses. Workers can wear them all day, and the battery lasts for a full shift. Also, since MentraOS is open-source, you can build your own apps, deploy on-prem, and stay fully compliant. Video calling is rolling out in general availability to Mentra Live users later this month.
