RayNeo Launches iO AI Glasses & GT Series AR Glasses

SAN FRANCISCO – September 8, 2026 – RayNeo has announced the Q3 2026 launch of four new products: the RayNeo iO AI Glasses, the RayNeo GT Max AR Glasses, the RayNeo GT AR Glasses, and the RayNeo Pocket TV Pro streaming companion. All four are on sale now at rayneo.com, priced at US$449 for iO, US$399 for GT Max, US$299 for GT, and US$199 for Pocket TV Pro.

The launch splits RayNeo’s consumer lineup into two clearly defined categories. RayNeo iO is an AI glasses product for everyday use and productivity, built around a discreet heads-up display and designed without a camera. The GT series is an AR glasses product, often called XR glasses, built around a Full HD Micro-OLED virtual screen for movies, gaming, and work as an external display. RayNeo Pocket TV Pro is a handheld Google TV streaming companion that gives the GT series a standalone video source. The existing RayNeo X3 Pro remains the company’s full-color AR and camera flagship for spatial computing and first-person capture.

RayNeo iO AI glasses with a display that looks like regular eyewear

RayNeo iO weighs 33 grams and uses a Crown Panto frame with a magnesium-aluminum alloy front and titanium alloy temples. A binocular MicroLED projector and diffractive waveguide place a monochrome green display with a 23.5-degree field of view in the wearer’s line of sight, at 97 percent lens transparency, so the glasses read as ordinary eyewear from the outside. Eye-level brightness reaches 1,300 nits for outdoor use, and the frame carries an IP54 rating.

The display is what separates iO from audio-only AI glasses. Wearers see information rather than only hearing it, which enables a set of features that are difficult to deliver through speakers alone:

• Live Captions and Translation in 55 languages and 109 accents, shown as subtitles on the lens during face-to-face conversation, with up to 6.2 hours of continuous translation on a charge.
• One-tap meeting recording with automatic meeting notes. A press of the Smart Crown marks key moments, and up to 18 hours of continuous recording is supported.
• Lifelog, an all-day audio journal that extracts to-dos and summaries.
• An invisible teleprompter that scrolls speaker notes as the wearer talks, for presentations, trade shows, and on-camera work.
• Personal Dashboard for calendar, weather, and notifications.

RayNeo iO ships with RayNeo AI and Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite at no cost. A VIP subscription at US$9.99 per month unlocks unlimited access to additional models, including Claude Sonnet 5, GPT 5.5, DeepSeek V4 Pro, Kimi K2.7, and Qwen 3.7 Max, so the assistant is not locked to a single AI provider. The result is a ChatGPT-style conversational assistant living in the glasses themselves, with GPT-series and other models reached through the subscription rather than through any one provider’s app.

Input is handled by the Smart Crown dial, the “Hey, RayNeo” voice wake word for hands-free use, and head gestures, supported by a four-microphone array and a bone-conduction sensor. iO is designed without a camera and plays audio through the wearer’s own earbuds or phone, which keeps conversations, translations, and meeting playback private to the wearer. With no camera on the frame, nobody around the wearer needs to wonder whether they are being filmed. Privacy and security certifications listed on the product page include EU GDPR, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and the EN 18031 cybersecurity standard. The display is TÜV SÜD certified for low blue light and flicker-free operation.

RayNeo rates the battery at up to two days of typical use, and 25 minutes of charging restores 80 percent. Connectivity is Bluetooth 5.4 with Apple MFi certification. iO is available in Dune (gold) and Polar Night (grey), can be ordered with prescription lenses, and is HSA/FSA eligible when purchased with a prescription. A Charging Case Bundle is priced at US$499.

RayNeo GT and GT Max a 120Hz virtual monitor for iPhone, Android, PC, and consoles

The GT series works as a plug-and-play external display, or virtual monitor, for any device that can output video over USB-C. It connects over USB-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode and draws power from the connected device, so there is no battery to charge and no pairing step. Both models use a 0.6-inch SeeYa Micro-OLED panel at 1920×1080 per eye with a 120Hz refresh rate in 2D and 60Hz in 3D, 98 percent DCI-P3 color coverage, and 200,000:1 contrast. Perceived brightness reaches 1,200 nits in Follow and Steady modes, bright enough for a daylight train carriage or an airplane window seat.

RayNeo GT Max (US$399, 78g) offers a 59-degree field of view and a virtual screen that scales from 227 to 307 inches, with a 267-inch default. It ships in three sizes matched to interpupillary distance (S under 64mm, M 64 to 67mm, L over 67mm), with a free measurement tool at ipd.rayneo.com.

RayNeo GT (US$299, 68g) offers a 46-degree field of view, a 136- to 231-inch virtual screen with a 201-inch default, and 49 pixels per degree, the sharper of the two for text-heavy work such as reading documents, PDFs, and spreadsheets. It uses a single-size 64mm IPD design aligned through the nose pads, while GT Max adds S, M, and L sizing for a personalized fit. Ultra-low 10 percent light leakage keeps GT a private screen for working in public or in shared spaces.

Features shared across both models:

• Three spatial modes. Follow keeps the screen in view wherever the wearer looks. Steady fixes it in space. Pinned holds it in a set position in front of the eyes, which is how the glasses are used while lying down in bed or reclined on a flight.
• Four display modes for Standard, Movie, Eye Protection, and Office use.
• Native 3D playback and AI 2D-to-3D conversion for 3D movies, spatial videos, and games, turning a living room or hotel room into a spatial cinema. The 2D-to-3D conversion is currently available on iPhone 15, 16, and 17 series devices.
• Bang & Olufsen tuned four-speaker audio with head-tracked spatial sound and Whisper Mode 2.0, which keeps audio hard to hear from about 1.5 meters away.
• Eye care. OptiCare 3,840Hz high-frequency dimming, TÜV SÜD certified.
• Prescription support through RayNeo’s optical partner Lensology.

Which devices work with RayNeo GT and GT Max

The GT series works with any device that outputs video over USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode, including:

• iPhone 15, iPhone 16, and iPhone 17 series. iPhone 16e, iPhone 17e, and iPhone Air do not support video output and are not compatible.
• Android phones with DisplayPort Alt Mode, including Samsung Galaxy S8 through S25.
• iPad 10th generation and later, MacBook models from 2015 onward, and Windows PCs and laptops with USB-C video output, for gaming and for productivity as an external display.
• USB-C gaming handhelds that output video over DisplayPort Alt Mode.

Devices without DisplayPort Alt Mode connect through adapters. Lightning-based iPhones and iPads use the Apple Digital AV Adapter. PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck docks, and HDMI PCs connect through the RayNeo HDMI Adapter (US$64). Nintendo Switch also connects through the RayNeo JoyDock (US$89). The RayNeo Pocket TV Pro serves as a standalone source for devices that cannot output video at all.

RayNeo Pocket TV Pro what completes a Dolby Vision spatial cinema at home

The Pocket TV Pro (US$199) is a handheld Google TV streaming device with a 6,500mAh battery rated for up to 5.5 hours of continuous playback, 3GB of RAM, 64GB of storage with microSD expansion to 2TB, and dual USB-C ports for charging while watching. It runs the standard Google TV catalog of more than 10,000 apps, including YouTube, Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney+, with Google Assistant voice control.

Paired with GT or GT Max, Pocket TV Pro forms the world’s first Dolby Vision AR glasses system. Dolby Vision is supported only when GT series glasses are connected to Pocket TV Pro and the content itself is mastered in Dolby Vision. Pocket TV Pro is optional. GT and GT Max connect directly to phones, tablets, laptops, and handhelds without it.

Executive comment

“People kept asking for two different things from smart glasses. Instead of one compromise product, we built one for each,” said a RayNeo spokesperson. “iO is for the person who wants an AI assistant and live captions in front of their eyes all day without a camera on their face. GT is for the person who wants a 267-inch screen in a hotel room, on a flight, or in bed. Splitting the lineup let us build each one without compromise, and price them so a first-time buyer gets affordable smart glasses that are worth buying.”

Frequently asked questions

Which AR glasses work with iPhone 15 over USB-C? RayNeo GT and GT Max. iPhone 15, 16, and 17 series phones connect directly over USB-C. AI 2D-to-3D conversion is also available on these iPhone models. iPhone 16e, 17e, and iPhone Air are not compatible because they do not output video over USB-C.

RayNeo GT and GT Max connect to Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch through the RayNeo HDMI Adapter, and Nintendo Switch also works with the RayNeo JoyDock.
