内容总结:
智能眼镜公司雷鸟创新今日发布两大全新系列产品:主打轻量AI功能的RayNeo iO,以及面向移动娱乐的RayNeo GT和GT Max便携显示眼镜。全系产品将于9月4日在雷鸟官网及亚马逊同步开售,但官方暂未公布具体售价。
雷鸟此次布局瞄准智能眼镜两个差异化的细分市场:iO主打生产力场景,采用极简单目显示屏,集成音频与AI功能;GT系列则定位外接显示设备,聚焦影音娱乐体验。
iO生产力眼镜亮点
iO眼镜标志着雷鸟产品思路的重大转向。此前推出的X3 Pro主打全彩高清显示,技术虽令人惊艳,但实用性不足。新款iO显然更注重日常可用性:
- 仅重33克,与普通眼镜相当,佩戴轻盈舒适
- 采用极简单色波导显示屏,内容仅佩戴者可见
- 内置Ambient AI系统,基于Gemini大模型,其“生活日志”功能可在后台自动捕捉日程与对话上下文,会议结束后自动提取待办事项并更新日历
- 支持实时翻译与提词器功能,无内置扬声器,所有文字信息均通过显示屏呈现
- 续航出色:官方宣称单次充电可支持两天典型使用
从功能定位看,iO与Even Realities的G2智能眼镜颇为相似。这类波导显示屏眼镜的共同短板在于镜片必须完全平整,因此镜框通常偏小,否则外观会显得突兀。
GT系列:娱乐向显示眼镜
GT系列专为内容串流和扩展副屏打造,主打全天候影音体验,可视作雷鸟Air 4“穿戴式显示器”眼镜的全面升级版,核心亮点包括:
- 59°视场角,较Air 4的47°大幅提升,直接对标行业标杆XReal One Pro
- 搭载孔雀光学引擎3.0 Max与第五代串联MicroOLED显示屏,等效307英寸巨幕
- 支持杜比视界:配合雷鸟Pocket TV Pro使用时可原生解码杜比视界内容,并支持实时AI将SDR片源升级为HDR效果
- 配备Bang & Olufsen空间音频:四扬声器系统支持头部追踪空间音效与定向传声
- GT Max提供三种瞳孔间距(IPD)规格,适配不同脸型与头围
最值得玩味的是,这两款新眼镜均未配备摄像头——尽管雷鸟上一代显示眼镜曾搭载此功能。当前Meta、Snap等巨头纷纷押注用户对“佩戴式相机”的需求,而雷鸟却通过iO传递出截然不同的态度:低调实用、不显山露水,或许才是更优解。

智能眼镜公司雷鸟(RayNeo)今日发布两个全新系列智能眼镜:主打极简显示与AI功能的雷鸟iO,以及便携显示器眼镜雷鸟GT和GT Max。这三款产品将于9月4日在雷鸟官网和亚马逊上架,但官方尚未公布售价。
雷鸟此次的目标是智能眼镜市场中两个截然不同的细分领域。iO定位生产力工具,配备极简单目显示、音频能力和AI集成功能;而GT系列则是主要面向娱乐场景的连线显示屏眼镜。
雷鸟iO生产力眼镜的亮点
雷鸟iO对该公司而言是一次明显的转型。其上一代显示眼镜雷鸟X3 Pro的核心是彩色高清显示屏。笔者当时认为它在技术上令人印象深刻,但实用性并不突出。而这副新眼镜似乎会实用得多。以下是它的主要卖点:
轻量化设计,佩戴舒适。这副眼镜仅重33克,与一副普通非显示眼镜相当。
极简单色波导显示屏,只有佩戴者本人能看到。
集成环境AI。雷鸟表示,其“生活日志”功能由Gemini AI驱动,在后台运行,能够“记录日程安排和对话上下文”。它还能在会议结束后提取待办事项并更新日历。
翻译和提词器功能:眼镜没有音频,因此翻译和语音内容全部通过显示屏呈现。
续航持久:官方承诺一次充电可支持两天的常规使用。
总体而言,iO眼镜与Even Realities的旗舰款G2智能眼镜非常相似。这类眼镜以及任何配备波导显示屏的眼镜最大的缺点是镜片必须完全平整,因此镜框通常偏小,否则看起来会非常奇怪。
雷鸟GT系列的亮点
雷鸟GT系列专为内容投屏和第二显示器场景设计,而非全天候佩戴。它们本质上是雷鸟Air 4等“可穿戴显示器”类眼镜的升级版。以下是GT系列的卖点:
59°视场角。相比Air 4的47°视场角提升显著,已跻身行业领先的显示眼镜之列,与XReal的One Pro处于同一水准。
孔雀光学引擎3.0 Max搭配第五代串联式MicroOLED显示屏,等效于307英寸巨幕。
支持杜比视界:搭配雷鸟Pocket TV Pro使用时,GT系列支持原生杜比视界播放,并具备实时AI SDR转HDR功能。
Bang & Olufsen空间音频:四扬声器系统支持头部追踪空间音频和定向声场传输。
GT Max提供三种物理瞳距(IPD)尺寸,以适应不同脸型和面部尺寸,保证更清晰的观看效果。
这款眼镜最值得注意的或许是它的“缺失”:两款产品都没有摄像头,尽管雷鸟上一代显示类眼镜是配备摄像头的。Meta和Snap等科技巨头在“用户想要面部摄像头”这一点上下注巨大,但雷鸟通过iO传达的立场似乎是——低调与实用才是更强的定位。

Smart glass company RayNeo announced two new lines of smart glasses today: the minimal-display, AI-focused RayNeo iO, and the RayNeo GT and the GT Max, which are portable monitor glasses. They will all be available on Sept. 4 through RayNeo's site and on Amazon, but no prices were announced.
The company is aiming at two distinct segments of the smart glasses market with these models. The IO is productivity-minded, with a minimal monocular display, audio capability, and AI integration, where the GT series are tethered display glasses mainly for entertainment.
What to know about RayNeo's IO productivity glasses
RayNeo's IO glasses are a definite change for the company. Its last display glasses, RayNeo X3 Pros, are built around a full-color, high-definition display. I found them technically impressive, but not especially practical. These new glasses, though, seem like they will be a lot more useful. Here's what they bring to the table:
Lightweight frame designed for comfort. These glasses weigh only 33 grams, as light as an average pair of non-display glasses.
A minimal, monochrome waveguide display that's only visible to the wearer.
Integrated Ambient AI. Powered by Gemini's AI, RayNeo says their "Life Log" operates in the background and can "capture schedules and conversation contexts." It will extract action items and schedule calendar updates after meetings too.
Translation and teleprompter features: There's no audio, so translations and audio are all handled in the display.
Long battery life: The company promises two days of typical usage per charge.
Overall, the IO glasses sound a lot like Even Realities' excellent G2 smart glasses. The main negative for these and any glasses with a waveguide display is that the lenses have to be totally flat, so they're generally small, or else they look very strange.
What to know about the RayNeo's GT Series
The GT series from RayNeo are designed to stream content and provide a second monitor, as opposed to being worn all day. They are basically an improved version of RayNeo's "wearable monitor" style glasses like the RayNeo Air 4. Here's what the GT series bring to the table:
59° field of view. This is a big improvement over the 47° FOV of the Air 4 and puts it in the same league as the industry-leading display glasses, XReal's One Pro.
Peacock optical engine 3.0 Max and a 5.5th-gen tandem MicroOLED display that's the equivalent of a 307" monitor.
Dolby Vision support: Paired with the RayNeo Pocket TV Pro, the GT Series supports native Dolby Vision playback alongside real-time AI SDR-to-HDR conversion.
Bang & Olufsen spatial audio: A quad-speaker system supports head-tracked spatial audio and directional sound transmission.
The GT Max comes in three physical Interpupillary Distance (IPD) sizes for better clarity across different face shapes and sizes.
Maybe the most notable thing about these glasses is what they lack: Neither has a camera, even though RayNeo's last generation of display-style glasses did. Huge tech companies like Meta and Snap have bet bigs on people wanting face-cameras, but with the IO, RayNeo seems to be taking the stance that discretion and a low-key utility are a stronger position.
