Innovation
With an identical design to a normal pair and with the possibility of turning them into prescription glasses or sunglasses, this pair of glasses, on sale in optician’s shops, interacts and notifies the user of any noticement. Their distinguishing feature is an imperceptible technological capsule and a Bluetooth 4.0 chip, which Alegre Design has built in the lightweight and stylish frame, which notifies the user with a LEDs of different colours that can be configured through an app.
Value
This idea, developed by the company Ion Eyewear, S.L. and funded through crowdfunding, needed a design studio experienced in industrial processes and electronics to help a concept come to life. This is how this company contacted us looking for a partner to help them create the glasses and develop both their design and look for ways to produce them with the greatest development guarantees.
In collaboration with a French company with extensive experience in manufacturing glasses rims for luxury firms and with a thoughtful design we designed these glasses where the electronics was perfectly embedded in a rim suitable for prescription glasses. These already enjoy great national and international success.
