Who’s involved

Hallidayinvestor partner

Shenzhen-based wearable technology startup behind the DigiWindow [Smart](/companies/smart-robotics) glasses, which project a 3.5-inch MicroLED display directly into the wearer's field of view without traditional lens-based AR optics. Founded in 2021 by Carter Hou in partnership with Gyges Labs and contact-lens brand Moody, Halliday debuted at CES 2025 and raised over $3.3M on Kickstarter — the most-funded AI glasses project in Kickstarter history. The 35-gram glasses feature real-time translation in 40 languages, a proactive AI assistant, and a discreet trackpad ring controller, priced at $489.
