Overview

  • Brilliant Labs has opened pre-orders for the $299 Halo glasses, which will ship in limited quantities beginning late November 2025.
  • The lightweight 40-gram frame houses a camera, microphone array, bone-conduction speakers and a color microOLED module that projects visuals into the wearer’s peripheral vision.
  • Halo delivers up to 14 hours of battery life while its Noa AI assistant uses audio and optical inputs to offer immediate, context-aware information.
  • A patent-pending Narrative system records private audio and video data to build a long-term memory that can recall names and past conversations.
  • The fully open-source platform supports natural-language app creation on-device and offers fine-grain privacy controls with voice commands to disable sensors or shut down the glasses.
