A look into the Even Realities G1: next-gen smart glasses
Since Google Glass was launched to the public in 2014, smart glasses have represented the future of eyewear, blending style and visual correction with digital functionality. Merging the physical and virtual worlds they offer a range of features, from navigational directions to language translation. While Google Glass was discontinued in 2023 other brands have come to the fore, offering customers a chance to access information when necessary, without being overwhelmed with data. Even Realities G1 smart glasses are the latest product to grace the market. Let’s take a look at them.
What is Even Realities G1?
G1 is the first Even Realities smart glasses product, designed specifically to be wearable and stylish while being technologically advanced and feature rich. The frame itself is expertly crafted to be lightweight yet tough and combines titanium alloy, magnesium alloy, silicone and sandstone to provide a hypoallergenic, comfortable fit. With their internal hinge mechanism the glasses fold smoothly without the need for screws.
The lenses consist of digitally surfaced lenses bonded to waveguide lenses, both of which are supremely thin and light. Not only does this deliver better performance and a wider field of view, it also makes the lenses durable and tolerant to extreme temperatures.
How does the technology work?
G1 communicates continuously with the Even Realities app on your phone via miniature antennae that sit on the inside of the frame, just behind your ears. These enable the glasses to project data onto the waveguide lenses via micro-LED optical engines. The left and right temples are perfectly synchronised to ensure visual notifications are supplied to both eyes simultaneously and instantly. Nothing gets in your way though; the waveguide lenses project content approximately two metres in front of you for a natural, head-up effect.
What features does G1 have?
G1 has the following features:
- Quick Note: Enables you to dictate a note and store it in the app.
- Translate: Enables you to see what someone is saying to you in real time, in your own language.
- Navigate: Gives you navigation directions to a chosen destination.
- Teleprompt: Puts your speech script in front of your eyes so your delivery is word perfect.
- Even AI: This virtual assistant can answer questions with visual responses.
- Notification: Delivers notifications and enables you to see more detail by raising your head.
Will G1 fit me?
In order to ensure a comfortable fit for any wearer, Even Realities conducted behavioural labs that analysed 10,000 3D head shapes covering all ages, genders and nationalities. The G1’s wraparound design gently hugs the temples and can be adjusted by our skilled optometrists here at The Eye Establishment.
G1 is also available in a choice of styles and colours, enabling you to match the frame to your skin tone, face shape and personal style. The lenses will match your prescription for seamless visual clarity, or you can select the non-prescription version if you don’t require any sight correction. The lenses also have blue light filters as standard to protect you from eye strain and an optional sunglasses clip instantly transforms G1 into UV protective eyewear.
