Looktech AI Glasses are AI-powered smart glasses with a “privacy-focused design” and several lens options. They are similar to Meta’s Ray-Ban smart glasses but support GPT-4, Claude, and Gemini instead of Meta AI. Like Meta’s smart glasses, the Looktech AI Glasses incorporate headphones, a camera, and an AI model for a hands-free experience and personalized AI assistance.
According to Looktech, the smart glasses can track calories, find recipes, set reminders, and perform image searches. The in-built 13MP camera can be used to capture high-res images and videos and the open-ear dual speakers provide “rich, spatialized immersive audio while keeping you aware of your surroundings.”
Looktech has given some hardware specifications for the product but the list is a bit sparse. We have covered the much cheaper but underpowered LILYGO T-Glass. Although there are no promises of a physical AI agent, the Looktech glasses are similar to the M5Stack’s Module LLM and SenseCAP Watcher.

The Looktech smartphone app connects to a supported smartphone model and features certain mini-apps for running specialized use cases. Looktech claims that data is anonymized before being sent to AI services. Users control the data “stored, deleted, or exported with the Looktech smartphone app.”
The crowdfunding campaign has launched on Kickstarter with 2000 backers and over $500,000 raised at the time of writing. The smart glasses are currently priced at $209 for early backers but will be sold for $349 MSRP once the offer ends. The product comes with a charging cable, cleaning cloth, manual, and carrying case. You can also add a charging case for $35 and a custom engraving for $11.
The Looktech AI Glasses are about the same price as the Meta Ray Ban glasses at MSRP, although they feature a slightly better camera and have a higher battery life (14 hours). Looktech also offers transition, polarized, and prescription options at “no extra cost”.
