Vue Glasses

Vue Glasses

Vue Glasses is a smart wearable technology platform that combines stylish everyday eyewear with Bluetooth audio, voice assistants, fitness tracking, hands-free calling, and intelligent device controls.

Vue Glasses

Project Overview

Vue Glasses wanted to provide users with a seamless way to control and interact with their smart eyewear without compromising the simplicity of traditional glasses. The companion application needed to reliably connect with the glasses, synchronize device data, manage audio and calls, support touch gestures, and provide a consistent experience across iOS and Android.

We developed the mobile companion applications using Objective-C for iOS and Java for Android, with a robust BLE communication layer connecting the applications to Vue Smart Glasses. The solution also incorporated open-ear audio, voice assistant integration, fitness tracking, device monitoring, and firmware management to create a complete connected-eyewear experience.
