Halliday Unveils AI-Powered Smart Glasses with Unique Display at CES 2025

The lightweight glasses feature a tiny optical module for real-time translations, notifications, and AI assistance, aiming to compete with Ray-Ban Meta and other smart eyewear.

  • Halliday's smart glasses use a 3.5-inch round display, called the DigiWindow, embedded in the frame rather than the lenses, providing a sleek, conventional eyewear look.
  • The glasses offer real-time translation for over 40 languages, AI-powered notifications, and a teleprompter feature, with a battery life of up to 12 hours.
  • Weighing just 35 grams, the glasses are lighter than competitors like the Ray-Ban Meta and come in three colors with optional prescription lenses.
  • A Kickstarter campaign allows early adopters to preorder the glasses for $369, with the retail price set at $489 and shipping expected to begin in March 2025.
  • The absence of a built-in camera helps maintain privacy and reduces bulk, but the display's placement above the right lens may pose usability challenges for some users.
