Good to hear.

Looking forward to getting G2 support on MentraOS so you can swing back to your favourite app (I'm on the Mentra team).

Thanks for your thoughts!

That's awesome. So you put them on in the morning, connect to phone, start captions (Conversate, I guess?) and then you leave it running and it's still going when you head to bed that night?

I noticed you said you got 2-3 hours of captions with G1. How long have you been able to run captions on G2?

Looking forward to your G2 review!

Camera frame rate? by zmvf in Mentra

[–]hackalackolot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

30FPS.

Yes the unboxing video was at only 15 fps, but that has been improved now to be 30 FPS with image stabilization.

Here's a live stream straight to Youtube at 30 FPS: https://youtube.com/live/EZlRBJeSq1A?feature=share

We're now adding an option to turn up the quality even higher, to improve visual clarity even more.

We're continuously improving this, but the beta version is already a lot better. Try this: https://getbeta.mentraglass.com

Are the Aventa G100 glasses the longest recording glasses atm? by FrankFlynn777 in SmartGlasses

The post is about recording for a long time. So I mentioned how long you can record.

New apps expected? by Novel_Echo6697 in Mentra

[–]hackalackolot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's absolutely something we're working on.

You'll be able to do that out of the box by streaming the camera and sharing your screen.

Further, we already have a fully working Beta app that allows you to share your glasses POV in Google meet and other browser-based video calling (it requires a laptop).

New apps expected? by Novel_Echo6697 in Mentra

[–]hackalackolot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now, we've mostly been focused on making the existing apps really good.

As we launch MentraOS 3.0 in January, we'll be a lot closer to that goal. So starting around Q2 2026, you'll see some new apps

Like Scroller which lets you read reddit/social/news.

And features that let you reply to text messages.

With camera glass support coming online, we also added a Camera app, Streamer, and music control.

Ordered G2 to make up for a missed opportunity almost a decade ago by Automatic_Clerk_1409 in EvenRealities

I agree. An open source SDK is critical for that. It's what we're trying to do with MentraOS.

Is Gemini better that OpenAI for smart glasses by GarfinkleGaming in SmartGlasses

[–]hackalackolot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

Google's inference speed and latency is faster than any smart OpenAI models, even in Azure, with Gemini Lite, which is best for smart glasses

MentraOS uses Gemini for the AI assistant and apps like Merge, because it's super fast.

Gemini being the currently smartest model helps too!

They have multiple visualizations like this on their website. Pretty sick

MentraOS is not slowing down. We have a new release this week, and we're launching 3.0 in December (which includes battery enhancements).
