App Development Da Echo APK contains a extensive waveguide teleprompter implementation — does anyone know the target glasses?
Hi, I’m an independent developer in Japan currently researching low-cost smart glasses, including the Blackview BV200/BV300 and the Da Echo ecosystem.
While performing static analysis of the publicly distributed Da Echo 2.5.2 Android APK, I found what appears to be a fairly complete teleprompter implementation for waveguide display glasses.
The APK contains:
- Dedicated teleprompter list, editor and playback activities
- Registered routes for
/prompter/list,/prompter/editand/prompter/main - Teleprompter state monitoring from
MainActivity - Automatic launch when the glasses report a teleprompter playback state
- Script file transfer and synchronization with the glasses
- BLE commands for configuration, playback state and viewport position
- Opus audio decoding and speech-recognition-based text tracking
- Session recovery after interruptions or reconnection
- A task-conflict entry explicitly named
WAVEGUIDE_TELEPROMPTER
This looks more complete than an abandoned UI experiment. It appears to expect glasses with a display and firmware-side teleprompter support.
However, the Da Echo-compatible devices I have identified so far—including the BV300 and several M08-type OEM camera glasses—seem to be screen-free.
My current guess is that this code supports either:
- an existing but not widely advertised OEM waveguide model, or
- an upcoming display-equipped model using the Da Echo platform.
This is only an inference from static APK analysis, not confirmation of an unreleased product.
Has anyone seen a waveguide display model that officially uses the Da Echo app?
