artificial intelligence. Augmented reality. encryption. Three of the most buzzwords in modern technology have been woven together in a way no one expected.

DreamSmart, a company focused on developing smart devices, and Up Network, innovators in AI agents, have joined forces to create the ultimate fusion: Web3 AI smart glasses with integrated agents.

The glasses, scheduled to launch in the first quarter of 2025, promise users the ability to make money while rewarding users with “token incentives” for interacting with artificial intelligence — a first in the increasingly crowded smart glasses market.

All of these decentralized processes are processed on the device, which means that no company or AI provider can access users' transactions or personal information.

“Crowds of AI agents eliminate the steep learning curve and complexity of Web3,” Up Network said in a statement. “By approaching tasks collaboratively and intuitively, these agents enable anyone – even crypto newcomers – to interact with blockchain and AI using natural language.”

Other non-Web3 operations and interactions with Google Gemini are of course cloud-based and handled by Google.

“These glasses are not just a device, they are a gateway to the future of decentralized computing and technology, bringing together the incentives of AI, XR and Web3 into one powerful ecosystem,” said Devansh Katri, co-founder of Up Network. Press release shared with Decryption.

Glasses handles all AI interactions using Google's Gemini core model. But besides use The best performing model in the LLM fieldThese smart glasses promise to be compatible with “other advanced AI agents,” promising real-time contextual intelligence.

A guide-wave light display projects images directly onto the lenses, creating what DreamSmart calls a “seamless extended reality (XR) experience.” The company also claims that its glasses can provide eight hours of continuous use.

There's no demo or additional information to share, but the announcement comes at a very hot moment for the AI ​​wearables industry, especially smart glasses.

Last week at least seven Major players launched their own AI glasses at CES 2025. Some of the most interesting models were AI glasses Halliday smart glasses That sends images directly to your eyes and Families of smart glasseswhich uses generative artificial intelligence to display a transcript of what people say to the person wearing the glasses in real time.

Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses Market leadership With more than 700,000 million units shipped in 2024, according to IDC data, it has been behind the boom in AI-powered wearables. IDC expects the overall smart glasses market to grow 6% this year.

If you can't wait and want to test out a bunch of smart glasses currently available, DreamSmart has two options for you: Starvi Airwhich you can purchase for $59.9 and starfy show Glasses that cost $399.
