Brilliant Labs to Launch Next-gen Smart Glasses on July 31st

Brilliant Labs is gearing up to unveil its third smart-glasses model on July 31. After debuting the Monocle clip-on HUD in 2023 and last year’s ultra-light “Frame” specs (under 40 g) packed with AI smarts from Perplexity, ChatGPT and Whisper for on-the-fly answers, translations and web searches, co-founder Bobak Tavangar will spill the beans in an AR subreddit Q&A—plus we’ve already seen a sneak peek of a sleeker, more modern frame shape.

All this comes as the smart-glasses arena heats up: Meta and EssilorLuxottica just announced Oakley Meta HSTN, Xiaomi has its own AI Glasses, and Google’s Android XR eyewear (with Warby Parker and Gentle Monster) is looming. Rumors say Meta’s next pair will even add a built-in display and wrist-worn controller, so expect some fierce competition once Brilliant Labs pulls back the curtain.
