AugmentOS - smart glasses OS and super app.

The open source operating system for your smart glasses. Access the best apps and AI agents on your smart glasses and build new apps and agents:

• AI Assistant
• Translation
• Live Captions
• Screen Mirror (Teleprompter, Karaoke/Lyrics, video captions, etc.)
• Convoscope

AugmentOS is the the way to build apps for smart glasses. For developers, it's a no-brainer, because AugmentOS-SDK enables:

• Your app to immediately runs on any pair of smart glasses.
• Simple + fast dev - focus on building a great experience.
• Continuously access smart glasses I/O.
• Run always - run your app for days straight, guaranteed.
• Get seen - get your app in front of everyone using smart glasses.

AugmentOS enables you to run multiple apps at the same time so you can truly take advantage of AI-first wearables apps. Apps that run proactively based on context. That's the power of a smart glasses operating system.

Apps

Some of the apps running on AugmentOS...

"Mira" AI Assistant

Smart and fast AI assistant with access to Google search. Say "Hey Mira" and then ask a question/say a command.

• "hey Mira, how long is a direct flight from Toronto to Hong Kong?"
• "hey Mira, what's the weather like this weekend in Cambridge?"
• "hey Mira, how much does YC invest in each company and what do they take?"

Screen Mirror

Mirror anything on your screen to your smart glasses. We use a lightweight, novel approach, which makes it very fast and makes text easy to read.

Developer Guide | How to build your own AugmentOS app

Documentation: docs.AugmentOS.org.

For developers,

AugmentOS is the best way to write a smart glasses app because it enables:

1. Your single app runs on any pair of smart glasses.
2. Access to smart glasses I/O continously
3. Running multiple apps running at the same time

AugmentOS is a fully open source OS for wearables. The AugmentOS SDK is a lightweight wrapper (Python, C++, Javascript, more) that allows any existing app to run as an AugmentOS app, in the cloud or on the edge.
