Pretty amazing project! I was amazed at 5:43 on how much tech you managed to fit in the relatively small glasses frames! Also- it was neat to see at 9:12 the lightweight glasses transcribing the conversation in real-time, storing it through the mobile app. I am definitely interested in seeing where this project goes, and clicked the notifications bell! 🔔 to hear updates on your new videos!
Superb video Cayden and you said it perfectly when you stated "some wearables aren't wearable". It's impressive you've been able to fit 1000mAh batteries into your open source smart glasses and I hope this new hardware can help further WIS. Top work.
Thanks Vuyu! Lots of energy in a wearable form factor is an important early step, so that's why it's in this early prototype. We'll need it even more as more electronics and capabilities are added.
This is amazing work! and exactly what I've been looking for. The switch from FDM to SLA must have been huge for you. SLA printing while more sensitive produces a product with way more detail.
Awesome, thanks! Yes it was a big upgrade. Unfortunately they're still too flexible and we really need to move to SLS. We'll be getting access to SLS soon!
Thank God ya'll are using all that brainpower for a good purpose! Amazing journey, and the glasses are looking good! Love the videos, jealous of your RV lifestyle. Signing up for everything now!
Ok i checked the description, derp. I just wanted to say you and everyone contributing to this rock! I am eager to make one myself tho i am limited by my pcb knowledge, thank you for documenting you research and work, stay awesome!
Looking pretty awesome , but at the moment for my bachelors capstone project I am looking for a display that can be mounted on a helmet. Would really appreciate any help I can get.
@@caydengineer well I've worked on a few things with people who gave up on the project. One was a Alzheimer's patient detector where when a carers loses the individual find them. Another was an electric motorcycle. And at the moment I'm working on a detector system to detect cats. It's tough working alone but I gotta stick to it and make it to the other side with my latest project. I like you glasses because I wanted something for whilst I'm skateboarding it could alert me about cars etc. But Im gonna look at building myself a haptic feedback vest to alert me etc
Going to be developing an interesting concept of IR night vision/HUD/Thermal imaging goggles. Love to see content out here that is going to help me achieve my goal.

Great work Cayden, finally a way to progress what smart glasses can do and with a community of like minded people with their own use cases. Keep me posted on when they are available. How much will they be and what's the current OS, Linux or android?
Hi Simeon. If you join the email list in the description, you can receive updates about this project. Right now, the system is only a micro controller (so no user facing OS). Future iterations will be Linux-based, likely.
This is so cool, exactly what I was looking for. Immediately subscribed. But I do have a couple of questions. Once you implement a display, will it be the same type as modern ar glasses such as vuzix? How do you plan to manufacture them?
Thanks Mick! Most use cases don't require high resolution (don't need >= 720p) or high FOV (15-30 degrees is all that's needed). We are currently beginning experimentation with some small size OLED optical modules. Yes, in the longer term we will partner with optics companies to integrate better, smaller, lower power optics module. At this later stage the optics would likely consist of a microLED or microLCOS display and reflective or diffractive wave guide with coupled prescription lens. Manufacturing thus just requires integrating (into our smart glasses) optical modules that are received from a partner already tested and optically coupled microdisplay and optics. Hope that helps.
Hi, I would like to reproduce the project and I would like to know if the circuits you built yourself or that you had printed by some company. Thank you
i know im late to the idea party, but can the next one be smaller, a clip on design with magnetic battery pack. something that will just snap on to my existing glasses
I don't see any "Smart Glasses"... All I see is a wireless microphone, incorporated into a wearable design. Real "Smart Glasses" have information presented onto a wearable display!
Thanks for your thoughts. Some people would agree with you, and it depends on the definition, but we use the term “smart glasses” broadly to mean any pair of glasses with a computer in them. You can read more about this here: smartglasses.community/best-smart-glasses-2022/
constraints would be so much easier to handle if the form factor was just a hat with the guts int the brim and either a fold down visor, or magneticly attached cable to the glasses.
Very true, just people don't want to wear hats all the time. However, maybe if it was a great experience, people wouldn't mind wearing a hat throughout the day!
They aren't for sale. You'll have to build your own or buy a product that is already available to consumers, like something from this list: m.th-cam.com/video/HuOBRJmxhHk/w-d-xo.html
Really great video, I did come up with the idea of creating some sort of smart glasses for a university project, I am a litle bit stuck when it comes to developing a prototype any tips ?
Thanks! Hard to help without details, but focus on what you want to achieve from the start. What's the idea? If you want to build an app that uses smart glasses, you're almost certainly better off to buy a pair (e.g. Vuzix Blade, Inmo Air) and write an app for those.
Haha, I don't think it will be allowed. However, we're building an app that gives you relevant information in your daily life based only on your context, stay tuned!
can u guys make open source smart glasses that designed and look like meta rayban glasses . so we can fir our custom ai models and softwares ? is it possible ?
Of course, that is the goal. It's difficult to make them that small. Even the large players with 100s of millions have not achieve this yet. Maybe in a few years, when more of the tech (waveguides, microLED, etc.) is commodotized, we'll return and do it just for fun! But not today.
You can't. You must build them, have someone build them for you, or otherwise look into consumer facing options (see my other videos for review of options).
Can you design glasses that can have access to the manifest of the passengers on the plane knowing their names, history on the travels, with face recognition ability .. maybe a bit too much ? Haha
I run an airlines .. it would be perfect if my crew can identify the customers so they can personalize the service from just seeing them and know in advance what they like
Thanks for the feedback. I'm working on a part 2 with the v1.0 version of the OpenSourceSmartGlasses that have a display, and I'll include a software explanation. Cheers!
Hey man, congratulations on this project. It really seems like you know yourself around this technology, I have recently sent you an email, i'd love to hear a response.
It s not that hard. I basically just started last night by editing my softs. Trying to setup master them. TNice tutorialngs cos in slowly. But it ain't that

Thanks Chase! Yes, it's imperative we make the arms thin for physical and social comfort.
@@caydengineer Makes sense!
you assembling a team of capable and experienced people is all I want in this world. If only this was adopted everywhere
Haha, thanks. Smart glasses are almost at consumer adoption. The tech is catching up to the vision.

Man you deserve so much subs!!!
Very underrated!
I actually want to do a project like this for my bday.
This is what I have been looking for for so long!
great job on this project! awesome to see it come to fruition!
This is incredible Cayden!!! Wowwww!!! Congratulations!!! Can't wait to talk with you again soon!!! You Already Know WE NEED THIS!!!!
Thanks LMichelle!
Damn this needs to blow up.
Subbed and notifs on!
Appreciate it. Much more to come.
Looking pretty awesome , but at the moment for my bachelors capstone project I am looking for a display that can be mounted on a helmet. Would really appreciate any help I can get.
Why can I never find ppl like this around me as passionate bout building something great
What great thing are you building?

What Gerben file has I need to download to let make a pcb?
And witch STL file has I need for 3D printing the glasses frame?
Thanks

Well done Cayden!!!!!!
Thank you Dan!
How did you manage to get information infant of your eyes or didn't you build it in yet please answer I am building smart glasses myself
See the followup video where we add a display.
absolutely game changing!
Curious to learn more about the features of the glasses
Check out the update video for more info!

@@caydengineer it does, thank you very much!
can smart glasses do visual search?
Yes, see this video demo: th-cam.com/video/jIWwJxi9bys/w-d-xo.html
Where's the discord link? I have an interesting medical application, would like some input on.
TeamOpenSmartGlasses.com
Does that smd soldering set up work for you
A hotplate and baking tray?
Awesome project btw
Yes, it works fine. I'd probably prefer an oven (or prefer outsourced PCBA as it can be so cheap) now.
thanks!
amazing, I have found glasses capable o translate audio in real-time; there is one which like that?
Yes, these glasses can do live translation.
We also support a software stack which allows for this on many other pairs of smart glasses as well.
Hi, I would like to reproduce the project and I would like to know if the circuits you built yourself or that you had printed by some company.
Thank you
i know im late to the idea party, but can the next one be smaller, a clip on design with magnetic battery pack. something that will just snap on to my existing glasses
Does it suport stock android and arcore support
No, its a microcontroller and monocular display.
Is it available in the market yet?
can you tell me the price?
No, it's not on the market. It never will be.
Awesome! 😀
Where can I get a pair
this is amazing!
Is RV setup open-source as well? 👀
Good question! I don't have a doc with all the tech and modifications, but if you comment on the video and ask any questions, I'm happy to answer.
Awesome work guys 👍

WOW, so cool!
Can you create smart glases that can help me see in the dark
Get night vision goggles.
I want to build these i am new to this could anyone walk me through the steps
Pretty sick!
Wow just insane 🙌
Thanks!
Im interested working with you on lightweight integration into analog night vision
It's all open source, feel free to fork. If you need support, join our discord (see video description or our website teamopensmartglasses.com).
I like to use these during a test.
Haha, I don't think it will be allowed.
However, we're building an app that gives you relevant information in your daily life based only on your context, stay tuned!
pls do tutorials
There is an indepth walkthrough on Github
I need this glasses

I have an idea I could really use your help with that’s right up your ally. How can we get in touch
See description.
It doesn't have a display screen.
Correct, at this point the screen was not implemented. See the followup video for the glasses after we added a display.
I fancy a greater cooperation and collaboration of you with Lenovo and chatGPT
Nice methlab van 😉
While I'm working inside, I can hear people out my window yelling "WALTER WHITE!!!" ;)

Haha please share any hacker adventures.
May God Bless you 😇
Hey, I'm a marketer, can I join the team?
wow
teach me the ways
I came here looking to make the monitor in the screen
See the latest Open Source Smart Glasses video, where we added a display.
Just printers no software explanation :(

Hey man, congratulations on this project. It really seems like you know yourself around this technology, I have recently sent you an email, i'd love to hear a response.
Interesting …. I’ll Waiting for a pair that auto correct and enhance vision.
Whoww
Don't try to make s imdiately. That's where you guys go wrong. You make noise. Just play with it and sculpt softs live... after
And WHAM! Well you're drunk now!
It s not that hard. I basically just started last night by editing my softs. Trying to setup master them. TNice tutorialngs cos in slowly. But it ain't that
Well there was nothing obnoxious about the overly loud music at the beginning of this video, nothing, really.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll watch out for audio balance.
