Lens Technology
Explore the world‑leading lens casting solution used to create next‑generation smart glasses.
Tobii's smart glasses platform enables eye tracking in slim, all-day wearable smart glasses with minimal components and complexity. Machine-learning gaze estimation optimized for low power provides consumer-friendly performance in real world conditions.
The requirements of smart glasses are fundamentally different from those of VR headsets and laboratory systems. Industrial design, thermal limits, battery life, component cost, and real-world reliability all influence whether a product succeeds at consumer scale.
Tobii’s solution is designed around these constraints from the outset, enabling eye tracking that fits naturally into lightweight eyewear platforms intended for everyday use.
Tobii’s technology addresses the core requirements OEMs face when integrating eye tracking into smart eyewear.
Fashionable eyewear design
Minimal hardware architecture enables slim, lightweight smart glasses.
All-day wearable efficiency
Optimized for low-power operation and thermal efficiency within power budgets.
Real‑world readiness
Stable tracking across users, environments, lighting, and motion.
Ready for scalable deployment
Optimized for ML-accelerated processors and high-volume production.
Tobii's smart glasses platform enables gaze tracking using one camera and one LED per eye, reducing hardware footprint while supporting flexible placement across diverse frame geometries.
At the core of the system is a machine learning-based gaze model delivered in ONNX format and optimized for low-power ML-accelerated wearable processors commonly used in consumer smart glasses.
This architecture helps OEMs integrate eye tracking into lightweight, battery-constrained devices without relying on larger optical assemblies or premium XR chipsets.
By making eye tracking viable in everyday eyewear, Tobii's smart glasses platform enables gaze to become a core interaction method for smart glasses experiences.
OEMs can leverage gaze to support contextual AI, attention-aware interfaces, gaze-based interaction, enhanced audio, object selection, and other features that create more intuitive interaction models and differentiated product experiences.
The platform also supports performance-oriented use cases, such as display rendering optimization and eye tracking-driven compression optimization, for smart eyewear architectures.
