Even Realities' new smart glasses ditch cameras and speakers

"The G2 Display Smart Glasses come without outward-facing cameras and external speakers, a move Even Realities says "removes the anxiety of being recorded, overheard or distracted by unwanted sounds." Shipping smart glasses with just a microphone might seem like a bold move in an era where it seems like every piece of tech comes with AI attached, but at least you'll have to worry a little less about the ethical concerns posed by the camera-equipped glasses from Meta."

"Even Realities' new Smart Glasses still feature four microphones along with a display that combines micro-LED projectors, gradient waveguides, and digitally surfaced lenses. According to Even Realities, this creates a 3D "floating spatial display" with multiple layers designed to mimic how the human eye processes information. Quick prompts or AI insights will appear on the front layer, while things like navigation or notes will surface in the back."

Even Realities launched the G2 Display Smart Glasses without outward-facing cameras or external speakers to reduce recording and auditory privacy concerns. The glasses include four microphones and a display system combining micro-LED projectors, gradient waveguides, and digitally surfaced lenses to produce a 3D floating spatial display with layered content. Quick prompts and AI insights appear on the front layer while navigation and notes occupy the back. Interaction uses the R1 smart ring with health tracking. The G2 adds an AI "Conversate" tool for conversation prompts and summaries, improved translation and teleprompter features, IP67 resistance, and over two days of battery life.
