Would you like these glasses to darken the glasses via the app?

A very interesting campaign is currently running on the Indiegogo crowdfunding server, the main subject of which is glasses with electrochromic glasses. Upcoming news by name Dusk uses this technology to enable the wearer of the glasses change their darkening through the application. The project still has a week to go until the end of writing this article, however, it already has almost two thousand percent of the originally requested amount in its account.

Of the coveted fifteen thousand dollars, now there are almost three hundred thousand, so the campaign should clearly shift the project from prototype to massive production. If you want to participate and make a claim to glasses with electrochromic glasses, you can do so with a contribution $ 179, or about $ 3,800. For this price, the Dusk Lite variant is offered, which primarily attracts the aforementioned glass darkening. The more expensive Dusk model costs $ 249 (CZK 5,300) and also has speakers, a connection to a voice assistant and can be “rang” during the search.

Dusk, glasses with electrochromatic glasses, score at Indiegogo

Both variants of these glasses have the possibility to change the darkening of the glasses in three different degrees directly using the button on the rim, but most importantly much finer through the application. This is probably the first smart glasses in this configuration. For example, other models rely only on automatic dimming based on ambient brightness.

In terms of ergonomics, manufacturers compare Dusk, for example, with competing audio glasses from Bose. But they are said to be much heavier and more robust. A novelty from Ampere developers will offer, for example, IP65 protection. The battery should last up to 4 hours on a single charge, which can be provided ten times with an additional case, which can be purchased separately. It also includes a compartment for the Apple AirTag.

How much would you be willing to give for such a tweak?
