Brilliant Labs just dropped its third wearable: the Halo smartglasses. They pack a full-color micro-OLED monocular display, bone-conduction audio, camera/mic sensors, and an ultra-low-power AI chip—yet still weigh just ~40 g and last up to 14 hours on a charge. Like its predecessors (Monocle and Frames), Halo is fully open-source and programmable via Lua on Zephyr, with customizable lenses and a wallet-friendly price tag.
Halo’s built-in AI assistant, Noa, offers real-time, multimodal convo powered by “Narrative” memory so it recalls past interactions, plus privacy protections that irreversibly embed your audio/visual input. You can even tell Noa to mute the mic or sleep the glasses hands-free. And with experimental “Vibe Mode,” you can voice-trigger the AI to whip up custom apps in seconds—even if you’ve never coded.
