One of Monako Glass's standout features is its bone conduction mic. The "industry standard" name for it is VPU, short for Voice Pickup. Keep this in mind if you ever need to work with accoustic engineers! This week we finalized our mic array design: 1 VPU + 3 accoustic mics. This allows Monako Glass to perform hardware backed speaker diarization!

Just watched General Magic: How a small team of engineers and dreamers laid the foundation for iPod (@tfadell ), Android, iPhone, Apple Watch, and the entire mobile internet age back in the 1990s. What struck me most is how familiar their ambition feels: defining a next-generation computer, smaller and more personal than anything people had seen before. They got so much right — the vision, the people, the ideas. They were just a decade and a half too early. Building Monako, I keep thinking about that. Sometimes the difference between a crazy idea and an inevitable one is simply timing. youtube.com/watch?v=JQymn5fl…

All smart rings in the market prioritize battery life over realtime interactivity. We've finally found a supplier that's willing to give us access to the firmware! Now we can stream out all health, accelerometer, and touch sensor data at 10hz. This will enable a new class of ring UX on Monako. Stay tuned!

Most smart glasses failed for one reason: they acted like accessories, not computers. The next generation has to change that. Here's how @MonakoResearch just did it…

Robert is super inspiring! So glad to see that there are people like him that hold such enthusiasm for XR. As tech progresses, waveguide AI glasses, birdbath XR glasses, and VR headsets, will ultimately merge into the same product category. @Scobleizer is using his platform to keep the XR dream alive until tech becomes ready!

Snap intentionally looks the way it does so that they can squeeze in as much tech as possible. The big story here is 51° FOV waveguides, which is equivalent to a 24 inch monitor at arms length distance. In 2 years, 51° will become industry standard, and in 5 years, 70° will enter the market. In the long run, birdbath optics used in Viture and Xreal are NGMI.

Our vision for Wearable AI Agent is that it is an audiovisual experience. Meet Mono. Does she remind you of someone? :)

Absolutely correct. Shenzhen does for hardware what AI does for software: it completely erases the barrier to entry. We went from a handmade prototype to a fully functional, beautifully machined pre-production unit with professionally engineered electronics in 6 months.
72 hours after YC demo day, I moved to Shenzhen for 8 weeks 🤠 I'm headed back to SF with new hardware in hand (sharing more soon), but some takeaways documented below: > If you have even the slightest ambition to found a hardware company, visit SZ. Pre-raise, pre-team, pre-idea, pre-job departure, it doesn't matter. Just go. > Plan your visit according to a major conference that interests you. Use that conference as a supplier meeting springboard - that's your ticket to any factory under the sun. > At the factories, ask about lead times, don't ask about cost (wait on this). Your iteration rate is driven by the lead time on the longest lead time item in your assembly. It pays to identify these parts early to build project timelines. > Visit Huaqiangbei (read: this is a mini-city, not a building). Robotic subassemblies, batteries, chassis's, electronic parts. They all have buildings where vendors are tightly clustered. Plan to spend 4-6 hours walking around before you find exactly what you're interested in. > Business relationships are valuable commodities. Treat them as such. Pay attention to people, learn about them. Bring thoughtful gifts. Wait for them to sit first. With Baiju, fill the glass but with tea leave some room. Cultural customs are fun to learn, but also convey a seriousness towards the working relationship. > Suppliers fit cleanly into discrete buckets. Level of complexity and execution on past projects indicates what is in scope for them. Trivial, but important to level your build expectations. It is easy to design a part with 12 subsequent manufacturing processes, exceptionally hard to find a supplier to fill this order. If you need coffeeshop recs, food recs, or hotel recs I have a few. Move to Shenzhen! Get to building!

Yep! We have a prescription lens slot đź‘“ You can fit your regular prescription lenses locally after receiving the glasses.

Does it support prescription lenses?
