Vuzix Corporation announced that Xander(TM), a Boston-based early-stage startup, is using the Vuzix Blade(TM) to power its XanderGlasses(TM), a smart glasses solution that displays real-time captions of in-person conversations to help people with hearing loss. Xander will publicly unveil its first product at CES 2023 in Las Vegas this week. XanderGlasses are designed to be used like a simple "on" and "off" device. They work anywhere people need them, whether they are at home, at work, or in a loud public setting. As XanderGlasses don't rely on smartphone or cloud connectivity, they are remarkably reliable and perfectly private. In this augmented reality experience, captions are
displayed seamlessly right in the field of view of the wearer. Xander has already received awards and recognition at CES 2023 including CTA Foundation Eureka Park Accessibility Contest winner, AARP AgeTech After Dark Finalist and CES Eureka Park Pitch Competition Finalist. XanderGlasses are expected to be available in Spring 2023.
