Amazon Said to Be Developing ‘Jayhawk’ Consumer AR Glasses and ‘Amelia’ for Drivers

Unconfirmed plans point to Meta-Bounds display tech with first units targeted for 2026.

Overview

  • Reports from The Information, echoed by Reuters and others, describe a consumer pair with a single-eye full-color display, microphones, speakers, and a camera under the codename Jayhawk.
  • A separate delivery-worker model, dubbed Amelia, is designed to show routing and sorting instructions on the lens for package runs.
  • The delivery glasses could arrive as early as the second quarter of 2026 with an initial production plan of about 100,000 units.
  • The consumer rollout is reportedly aimed for late 2026 or early 2027, with a sleeker design than the driver-focused version.
  • Both projects are said to share core display technology sourced from Chinese supplier Meta-Bounds, and Amazon declined to comment to Reuters as Meta prepares new smart glasses announcements.
