RayNeo's latest iO Smart Glasses incorporate a compact display into your field of vision.
The $479 glasses provide live translation, 112-language dictation, and an AI memory log that learns your daily habits for personalized daily summaries.
RayNeo has introduced a new pair of smart glasses meant to reduce the frequency with which you check your phone. The iO Smart Glasses incorporate a small MicroLED display in the upper corner of your view, allowing you to quickly see notifications, your schedule, and other information without needing to reach for your smartphone.
A discreet display designed to be unobtrusive
The iO Smart Glasses utilize RayNeo’s Firefly Engine Nano, a monochrome green MicroLED display measuring just 0.6 mm and capable of reaching up to 1,300 nits. The glasses weigh 33g and house a 240mAh battery, four microphones, and a bone conduction sensor that picks up your voice while minimizing surrounding noise. RayNeo claims the battery can last up to 48 hours of regular use and up to 96 hours on standby.

The glasses forgo traditional speakers entirely. Voice input is processed through the bone conduction sensor and microphones, with no audio playback, ensuring that interactions remain visual. A scroll wheel resembling the Apple Watch’s Digital Crown facilitates menu navigation, while motion sensors allow for head gesture controls, and an IP54 rating protects against splashes and light rain. Additionally, there is a small LED on the temple that lights up whenever the microphones or translation engine are activated.
Live translation, dictation mode, and an AI memory log
The hardware supports two of the iO's more advanced software features. The first feature encompasses translation and dictation, with Live Translation accommodating 40 languages and dictation mode expanding that to 112. The glasses also feature an auto-teleprompter that scrolls through scripts as you speak.

The second feature operates discreetly in the background. RayNeo refers to it as the “Ambient AI Life Log,” a system that monitors your habits and workflows over time to tailor its daily summaries. Furthermore, the iO Smart Glasses provide a dashboard displaying information about your schedule, alerts, and the weather with a simple upward glance.
For the AI functionalities, the iO comes equipped with RayNeo’s own assistant and Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite at no extra cost. A monthly subscription of $9.99 unlocks additional models in the companion app, including ChatGPT 5.1, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Claude Sonnet 4.5, Claude Opus 4.1, and DeepSeek V3.
Pricing and availability
The RayNeo iO Smart Glasses will be available for purchase starting September 4, through the company’s website and Amazon. They will be sold in two configurations: the standard case version for $479 and the charging case bundle for $529.
In addition to the iO Smart Glasses, RayNeo has announced a new Google TV streaming device called Pocket TV Pro. This device is designed to be used with the new RayNeo GT and GT Max AR glasses and supports Dolby Vision playback. RayNeo has not yet provided pricing or availability information for the Pocket TV Pro.
