Monako Glass

What is Monako Glass?

Monako Glass is the world's first wearable Linux computer built into a 48g smart glasses frame, designed for developers and AI power users who want to run coding agents hands-free. Running MonoOS (a custom Linux-based operating system), the device integrates a waveguide heads-up display, bone conduction microphone, and Vision Engine gesture controls to enable seamless interaction with AI coding tools like Claude Code and Codex anywhere. The platform features a Lua application layer for instant app deployment, embedded Rive animation runtime for cinematic UI motion, and full open Linux access for custom development and cross-device workflows spanning cloud sandboxes and local machines.

Key Features

• Wearable Linux Computer

  Full Buildroot Linux OS on Arm Cortex A7 with 0.5 TOPS NPU, delivering true on-device computing power in a 48g glasses form factor.

• Hands-Free AI Coding

  Run Claude Code, Codex, and any terminal-based coding agent directly from the heads-up display without needing a keyboard or laptop.

• Multi-Modal Input System

  Bone conduction nasal microphone for noisy environments combined with Vision Engine hand tracking and gesture controls for precise interaction.

• Lua App Layer

  Lightweight LuaJIT runtime requiring only 200-500KB RAM per app, enabling agents to generate and deploy apps instantly without build steps.

• Cross-Device Workflows

  Create tools and workflows that span Monako Glass, cloud sandboxes, and local Mac/PC for seamless development across environments.

• All-Day Wearability

  300mAh battery provides 4 hours screen-on time or 8 hours normal use, with prescription lens slot and balanced weight distribution for comfort.

Use Cases

• Mobile Software Development : Developers can code on-the-go by running AI coding agents hands-free, generating apps from voice commands and reviewing code through the heads-up display.
• AI Research & Prototyping : Researchers and AI enthusiasts can quickly prototype ideas, run experiments, and iterate on AI workflows without being tied to a desk setup.
• Creative Production Workflows : Creative professionals can integrate tools like Unreal Engine, Blender, and After Effects into a unified wearable workstation for content creation.
• Presentation Generation : Users can generate research presentations, reports, and visual content using voice commands and gesture controls while staying mobile.
• Custom Agent Development : Advanced users can build, train, and deploy personalized AI coding agents with full Linux system access for tailored development workflows.
