Brilliant Labs has secured over $3M in funding for its AR Monocle, combining augmented reality and artificial intelligence into a small, lightweight lens. Investors include Brendan Iribe, co-founder of Oculus, and Adam Cheyer, co-inventor of Apple's Siri. The AR Monocle, priced at $349, can be clipped onto any eyeglass frame and weighs only 15 grams. - Users can create applications that interact with generative AI, such as ChatGPT.
- Stanford students have developed an app that uses GPT-4 to generate text suggestions on Monocle's display.
- The Monocle features multiple processors, including an FPGA accelerator chip, and currently relies on a smartphone for feed but aims to connect directly to the cloud for running apps.
