Overview
As its first use case NuEyes built a series of augmented and virtual reality smart glasses with its strategic partners and manufacturers to enable and support the lives of people with impaired vision.
Our founders, who have extensive backgrounds in med tech specific to assistive technology, recognized that current technology addressed only a few of the patient needs. As any good tech story starts, NuEyes was founded in their garage in 2013 with working prototypes and basic software algorithms that were then tested out by the same patients for validation before the company was officially launched in 2016. We have now scaled to four key products with a fifth coming in 2021.
NuEyes helps real people with everyday problems. We have achieved Product-Market-Fit with our partnership announcement with Comcast which generated over 9M views in less than 3 months with specially curated stories from our users.

The Problem
There are currently over 280 million people in the world with severe visual impairment, a number that is expected to grow over 72% in the next 10 years (source). With such a large number and anticipated growth rate - there is a lack of accessible technology that truly serves as a solution to this population.
Existing solutions for the visually impaired are often ineffective, inefficient, hard to obtain, and financially unreachable. Advanced technologies are frequently too expensive, leaving a large part of the low vision community without the best resources possible.
The Solution
To address this growing population of severely visually impaired people, we create technology that is accessible, effective, and affordable. Our solutions help people visually connect with loved ones, conduct day-to-day life more easily , and communicate more safely.
We offer four different smart glasses solutions that address the various needs of the visually impaired. Our glasses are lighter, faster, less expensive, more flexible, and have a broader range of features than other solutions on the market.
Our omnichannel distribution channel and B2C model drives steady revenue, propelling our growth. We uniquely offer reimbursement through the state, federal, VA, insurance, as well as two internal financing programs, making this a more accessible option without sacrificing quality.
Our Traction
Our traction is marked by our product development, revenue growth as well as our key partnerships. Sales of our four products, the Pro, Pro 3, and e2, along with key partnership deals with telecommunications and streaming services have driven our revenue to $3.6 million LTD, exhibiting 218% revenue growth with $3 million rolling. In November 2020, we brought our newest product, the e2 to launch.
One of our key partners is Comcast, where we offer Xfinity streaming in our e2, and e2+ glasses. Our products are patented, with technology that helps thousands of people see again. We launched the very first pair of AR smart glasses that tether to your smartphone or tablet in the U.S.
Our product, the Pro 3 garnered significant Interest from Fortune 500 companies. We have 20+ approved pilot studies with another 10-pending approval from organizations such as Nestle, the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs, Porsche, UPS, Audi and more. We’re soon launching a consumer version of the Pro 3 that will plug into a smart phone.
Beyond the hardware, we launched a Telemedicine Software Program in 2020. In January 2020, we also partnered with United Health Care and AT&T to offer 100% reimbursement. We have also launched two low-cost financing programs in the past 12 months.
NuEyes is trusted by our partners and by our funders, as we already raised $1.8M, $800k friends and family, $1M from notable angel investors and VCs.
The Market
The VR & AR market continues to grow as more organizations and companies invest in these industries. The opportunities for virtual reality are also disrupting the medical industry. With over 280 million people in the world with severe visual impairment, expected to grow over 72% in the next 10 years, market opportunity and customer demand are rampant (source).
What We Do
At NuEyes we develop smart glasses solutions in conjunction with our multiyear exclusive manufacturing relationships to address low vision and medical, remote assistance, government/DOD, as well as enterprise needs.
Wearable technology is the future, and NuEyes Smartglasses bring the future to you in a small, compact yet powerful head-worn device. The core features of our Pro 3 products include 4K displays, 52-degree field of view, 20mp camera in a light 88g form factor as well as dual 6DOF cameras to render SLAM, hand gesture controls, object and plane recognition.
We are lighter, faster, less expensive, and more flexible with a broader range of features than any other solution on the market. AND we can prove it!

We currently have four product offerings, the Pro, Pro 3, e2, and the e2+. We also offer a telemedicine feature - NuCall. Here’s a breakdown of our products:
A removable, visual prosthetic that helps the visually impaired see again while keeping their hands free. This product helps with several conditions including Macular Degeneration, Diabetic Retinopathy, and Ocular Albinism.
A removable visual prosthetic that helps the visually impaired see through a 1080P magnified display, that can be controlled with a smartphone or tablet. Our NuEyes Pro technology is voice-controlled for greater accessibility.
Tethered to Controller or Smartphone/Tablet
Object, Gesture, Plane, Motion, Speech Recognition and SLAM
The NuEyes e2 was designed to be a device that not only helps the visually impaired but is extremely easy to use with just three buttons. Button one lets you select from a variable magnification depending if you want to read, watch TV, or look at a loved one’s face. The second button allows you to choose from three different contrast settings. The third and final button is for OCR/text to speech.
First-ever AR/VR Device
Stream Content, Telemedicine, VR Training
Similar to the e2, the NuEyes e2+ is a device that not only helps the visually impaired but is extremely easy to use. The only thing you need to do is press the power button and put the device on your head. No phone or extra accessories are required.
First-ever AR/VR Device
Stream Content, Telemedicine, VR Training
NuCall uses the most secure voice and video calling technology that does not require the doctor or patient to download any software, meaning no data remains on the device.
The Business Model
We have signed partnership deals with many of the leading brands in our space, creating an omni-channel distribution model. With 100’s of resellers including state and federal agencies, NuEyes is poised to become one of the leaders in the augmented reality smart glasses space in 2021 and beyond!
For greater accessibility, our products are also available direct-to-consumer, with low financing options. Between partnerships and direct client sales, we have garnered $3.6 million in revenue to date.
How We Are Different
NuEyes leads the AR and VR industry through a wide range of features and more affordable pricing.
