At Emteq Labs, we’re building smart glasses that go beyond steps and sleep, giving new insights into how we eat, feel, and behave.

It’s a big mission that deserves to be shared widely.

That’s why we’re crowdfunding.

It’s not just about raising funds, it’s about inviting our community of friends, colleagues, researchers, athletes, and everyday people to be part of the journey.

We’re excited to share that Emteq Labs is joining the Core Digital Measures for Common Mental Health Disorders project, led by the Digital Medicine Society (DiMe) with the FDA.

This initiative will create patient-centred, objective digital measures to transform how mental health is understood and treated.

By combining Emteq’s expertise in wearable sensor technology with the leadership of DiMe and the FDA, we’re working towards:

Earlier, more precise signals of treatment efficacy
More personalised care with actionable data
Smarter investment in treatments that truly work

Just as continuous glucose monitors changed metabolic health, digital sensors will reshape mental health care. We’re proud to contribute to this effort to answer the critical question: What works, for whom, and when?

What does a smile, frown, or subtle eyebrow raise really say about how you feel?

Our OCOsense™ smart glasses can pick up those tiny expressions while you’re just going about your day—no wires, no lab, just everyday emotion and activity tracking.

Whether it’s used in healthcare, research, or even eating behaviour, the possibilities are huge.
Find out how it works in our new blog:

The OCOsense™ smart glasses utilize a powerful combination of seven optical OCOsense™ sensors, three proximity sensors, a 9-axis IMU, and a pressure sensor (altimeter)—all discreetly integrated into the frame. This multi-modal approach allows comprehensive facial expression tracking, activity ...

👓 It’s on!
Google is reportedly taking a 4% stake in Gentle Monster — and it says a lot about where the future of eyewear is headed.

Analogue glasses will soon seem as quaint as analogue watches: relics from a time before technology merged with fashion.

Fashion First
Big Tech knows the challenge: how do you get people to wear smart glasses every day? The answer is fashion.
Meta teamed up with EssilorLuxottica. Now, Google is betting on Gentle Monster.

Why Will We Wear Smart Glasses?
Smartwatches didn’t win by telling the time. They gave genuine value — heart rate, fitness, and daily insights.
Smart glasses will do the same, monitoring:
✅ Eye strain and UV exposure
✅ Sleep quality and stress levels
✅ Micro-expressions for proactive help and deeper connections

Breakthrough Capabilities:
🤝 Proactive Assistance — Helping when confusion is detected
📈 Experience Tracking — Understanding how we feel and learn
👁️ Attention Analysis — Helping us focus when and where it matters

The tipping point?
Smart glasses will soon feel as indispensable as a phone. Not wearing them will seem like going out with your phone switched off: possible, but impractical.

👓 The race for the next computing platform has begun. Snap just announced the first consumer AR glasses for 2026 — beating Meta, Apple, and Google to market. [https://archive.ph/MV0gl]

Why it matters:
✅ Meta’s Ray-Bans have sold 2M+ units
✅ Smart glasses market projected to grow 225% in 2025
✅ The long-term vision? Replace smartphones entirely.

But there's a missing piece: true face-to-face communication needs more than voice. Without facial sensing, AR glasses lose emotional depth.

That’s where Emteq comes in — with lightweight facial sensing to bring real emotional intelligence into AR.

We’re not just building devices. We’re building the future of human connection.

The real question: will we keep tapping screens — or finally look up?

Had a great time at AWE 2025 demoing our Sense smart-glasses! Visitors discovered how our sensors pick up on the tiniest facial movements, track chewing speed and even analyse what you eat – all in real time.

A special thank-you to Jason England for his write-up:

They knew when I was faking a smile, and judged my chewing speed
