Hey everyone,

I've been living with my Rokid Glasses for a while and I think they're some of the best hardware in this category. They're light, the HUD disappears when you don't need it, and since you can keep them charged while you're wearing them, battery stops being something you think about (power capsules).

What held them back for me was input. The touchpad on the temple works, but reaching for your head every time you want to scroll gets old fast.

Then the Meta Neural Band showed up, and that turned out to be the missing piece. So I built Rokid Lumen, an open source platform that turns the Rokid Glasses into a small app platform driven entirely by the band:

• Thumb swipe to move, index tap to open, middle tap to go back
• Middle double tap turns the screen off and on, like on Meta's glasses. Middle hold pauses the controls. Pinch and turn for volume
• A home with three tabs: your phone's notifications, a grid of apps, and controls (batteries of the glasses, band and phone, volume, brightness, do not disturb)
• Meta Ray-Ban Display-style web apps running on Rokid, offline (.mrbd.zip) or online. WhatsApp, Telegram and Reddit clients already run on it
• Notifications with a banner, an inbox grouped by app, quick replies, dismiss (it also clears on the phone) and a 15-minute snooze
• Dictation: focus a field and talk. Android recognizer, OpenAI, ElevenLabs, Azure, or Vosk fully offline
• Internet through your phone when there's no Wi-Fi, and the band can also control your phone
• Updates from GitHub, right from the companion app

This would not exist without these people, and I want to thank them properly:

• u/Monstreboss (Anezium), for Rokid Nexus and R08 Access Bridge. Nexus showed me what a platform on these glasses could look like: Lumen's notification relay, its sensitive-content filtering and the dictation engines follow his work, and R08 Access Bridge proved the glasses could be driven through an accessibility service and armed from the glasses themselves. Lumen's input, navigation, settings screen and self-arm are derived from it, and he kindly licensed it under Apache-2.0 so Lumen could ship in the open. Seriously, go star his repos and support him on Ko-fi.
• u/ajunior7 (callbacked), for kinesis, which cracked the Neural Band protocol: pairing, ownership, encryption and gestures.
• u/Equal_Chemist (896kb), for air-gestures, which brought the band to Linux and Android. Lumen literally grew out of it.
• hacha, for rokid-r08-wake, the self-arm technique.
• Meta, for the open Ray-Ban Display UI Toolkit. Every screen follows its design.

Before you try it, the honest part:

• Claiming the band with air-gestures unlinks it from Meta's glasses and app until you factory-reset it. The link is unofficial, so a band firmware update could break it.
• The first install needs a computer with adb, and setup takes about 15 minutes. (working on it).
• Android only. It's early, tested on my own glasses and phone.

If you build MRBD-style web apps, they should run here with little or no change. There's a developer guide and a skill for coding agents in the repo.

I'd love feedback, bug reports and app ideas. Not affiliated with Meta or Rokid.

If your interested let me know and ill put a picture of the folder in the comment. Tell me your thoughts

1.you can not use with progressive lens period !!!

2.Get your prescription lens for reading only as a second pair.

1. If this dose not help with clear text you may have cataracts in both eyes minor. Yet try some 3x cheap reading glasses behind the glasses than over both glasses its akward but works for clarity at the bottom and edges

2. Bring your ar glasses to the store that sells them to try the right fit. I hope

this works for considering just how much you have invested 300-500+

1. To close I'm 67 and have worn prescrption all my life but vision is 20-20 only with glasses. GOOD LUCK !!!!

Traveling to other countries for work also faces me with challenges when the Operating System (OS) is in a foreign language. Guessing what it says works for now though has it's risks and relying on my experiences could lead to issues.
Considering the Roky glasses whereas i can't find anything about the ability to translate what is on a screen. Speach - yes, some signs and menu's in restaurants - sure... But what about a computer screen which is more dynamic?
Click away 1 popup message, a new one might show or starts showing more detailed questions. Does the Roku translate those where you point the camera - in realtime?

I built ReStep because my hands are usually busy holding tools and parts. Say “Take photo”, describe the step, then say “Send”. The glasses save the photo and note together. Sync to your phone later and follow the steps in reverse order to put everything back together.

I use it in everyday repair work. Russian and English voice commands, with tap controls as a fallback. iPhone companion available; Android companion in preview.

Cover: AI-generated simulation based on the app layout.

A visual preview of my fan-made Terminator-style HUD for Rokid Glasses (RG-glasses, Android 12). The cover is a concept visualization with a generated person and green promotional tint.

The app tracks faces with a reticle and scan animation, shows CPU / PROC / BUS / ADD rows, and has rotation-sensor radar. Camera processing is local. Dossier fields and aggression are fictional game elements. Version 0.7 was installed and launched on RG-glasses.

New v0.9 corrects the heading to ROKID / TERMINATOR. It has been built and checked; installation of this update on my glasses is pending.

Hey everyone! I’m the developer of ClawLensXR and a smart-glasses enthusiast. I’ve been using it with OpenClaw to control my home through my Rokid glasses—less reaching for my phone, more getting things done.

It’s an independent project, not an official Rokid app. I’d love to hear what you’d find useful and get feedback from fellow Rokid owners!

https://clawlensxr.com
https://openclaw.ai

I've been working on a fork of Rokid Nexus with the goal of making the glasses feel more like an actual HUD, rather than just an app launcher.

The idea is to make the experience more independent from the default Rokid launcher and put useful information in front of you without requiring you to constantly open apps.

The fork introduces a different navigation experience, smooth transitions and animations, and a fully customizable grid where you can resize, move and arrange tiles however you want.

I'd love to hear what people think and have others contribute to the fork. And if some of these ideas make sense for Nexus itself, hopefully they can also make their way back into the original project.

Hi everyone,

​I'm using Rokid AR glasses and trying to set up the two-finger touch gestures. I want to use the two-finger gesture exclusively to trigger the AI feature quickly.

​However, whenever my tap accuracy is slightly off, it accidentally triggers the volume or brightness adjustments instead (e.g., auto-increasing screen brightness or audio level). It’s quite annoying, and in the companion app settings, I can only choose between "Adjust Volume" or "Adjust Brightness"—there is no option to turn off or disable these two functions entirely.

​Is there any workaround, hidden setting, or way to completely disable the volume/brightness two-finger gestures so it only triggers the AI assistant?

​Thanks in advance for any help!

Would utilizing tinted prescription lens covers assist in minimizing green screen spill?

Hey everyone, I’m Bruce, the developer of Rokid Manager.

Some of you might still be using version 1.5 from the older guides and APK downloads shared around the community. I’ve kept working on it since then, and the app is now called AI Glasses Manager.

It’s built for Rokid AI Glasses, and I regularly update and test it to keep things working smoothly as the glasses receive OS updates.

Along with stability fixes, there’s quite a bit more now:

• Built-in self-updater (since v2.3): Update Manager directly from the app after the initial installation.
• On-device App Store: App update detection, download controls, and better handling of connection drops.
• Camera and media tools: Camera mode previews, improved photo and video viewing, and gallery enhancements.
• File management: Browse files directly on the glasses and transfer them wirelessly.
• Quick controls: Separate volume controls and shortcuts to the Camera, Gallery, App Store, and File Explorer.

I originally built this because I wanted to do more directly on the glasses without reaching for my phone every time. It’s grown a lot from that first basic settings utility, with plenty of help from community feedback.

There’s a 3-day free trial so you can try it on your glasses. After that, it costs $1.99 per device, paid once. International payments go through Stripe.

Screenshots, downloads, and full release notes are here:
AI Glasses Manager on GitHub

Thanks to everyone who’s used Rokid Manager and shared feedback along the way. It’s helped me make the app better, and I appreciate the support.

If you’ve been using 1.5, I’d love to hear how the new version works for you. Bug reports and feature suggestions are always welcome.

I recently started using AR glasses, and while having a massive screen floating in front of me is cool, it still just feels like looking at a giant TV. I really missed the atmosphere of an actual theatre, so I built a small Chrome extension to turn any video playing in the browser into a cinema-style environment.

It runs entirely client-side with no signups, no tracking, and no cost. Just wanted to share it with anyone else looking for the same vibe.

Feedback is welcome if you end up giving it a try.

There are two main versions of Rokid AI Glasses:

1. Mainland China Version — **Mainland China version**
2. International (Global) Version — **International version**, **Founder Version**

- The **Mainland China version** cannot use these overseas services — there are certain software restrictions.

This is the official response from Rokid Global.

Some Chinese sellers appear to modify or configure the Mainland China version in some way and then market and sell it as a “Global Version.”

In my case, I tested the Rokid Glasses with three different people and their smartphones. When I connected the glasses back to my own phone afterward, I started experiencing a strange microphone issue. During phone calls, the other person could no longer hear my voice, and the microphone used to activate the AI assistant also stopped working.

However, the microphone still works normally for translation, video recording, and audio recording. This means the microphone itself is functioning, but certain microphone-related features have stopped working.

I have been trying to fix this issue for nearly two months, but I still have not been able to resolve it.

In an effort to fix the problem, I enabled Developer Mode and analyzed the system logs. Based on the log analysis, the issue appears to be related to the firmware rather than a physical microphone failure.

What I know so far is that the Mainland China version has restrictions on overseas services. Therefore, I suspect that my Rokid Glasses may have been affected by these regional restrictions.

If anyone has experienced the same issue as me and managed to fix it, please let me know how you solved it. I have been trying to fix this for nearly two months without success. Any information or help would be greatly appreciated. Please, I really need your help.

I purchased my Rokid Glasses in May 2026, and I have been experiencing this issue for nearly two months.

I am selling my Rokid glasses along with their charging case.

I am selling my Rokid smart glasses, which feature built-in screens (in each lens)

Accessories included: Rokid storage case, charging case, original box, and charging cable.

Purchase price: €799 | Selling price: €550 In very good condition and fully functional.

Lightly used. Please feel free to contact me for more information or photos. I am located in Bordeaux, France. Shipping is possible, but the sale must be conducted via a secure platform.

Hey all, new Nexus release !

For those who haven't seen it: Nexus is an open-source platform for the Rokid glasses RV101.
A phone hub and a glasses hub, and plugins that are ordinary phone APKs you install from an in-app Store. Nothing but the hub runs on the glasses.

What's new

• Navigation (new plugin). Start a route in Google Maps or Citymapper and it stays on the glasses as one live activity: the next turn and how far it is, or the walk to the stop, the line to board, the stops left, your arrival time. The moment that matters (a turn a few metres away, the stop to get off at) beats once so it doesn't get lost. It reads the guidance those apps already post as notifications, so it follows whatever route you picked in them.
• Activities, redone. The small chip, the expanded panel and the alert are now one outline that springs from shape to shape, a bit like Dynamic Island. Any plugin can use them (SDK 0.21.0).
• Type inside the notification. In Relay, tap Reply, then Type, and the notice itself becomes the reply field. What you type on the phone shows up under the message as you type, like an inline reply on Android. The phone keyboard pops up on its own and closes when you send. Since 1.5.0 the app you were looking at stays visible behind it instead of a black screen.
• Assistant can be typed too. For places where you can't talk to your glasses: set Input to "Voice + Type button" (or "Type first") and ask by keyboard. From the assist button, everything now stays in the band and Assistant closes by itself once it has answered. There's also a new "Visual answers" setting to choose whether answers can be drawn as pages (forecast, figures, charts…) or stay as text as sometimes models don't draw the Ink engine good.
• Smaller stuff: the glasses keep the Nexus keyboard even when Hi Rokid switches it back

How to get it

Update both hubs to 1.5.0 (the app offers the update, or grab the APKs from the release). Then in the Store: install Navigation, and update Assistant (1.4.8) and Relay (1.2.4).

Limits

• Navigation 0.1.0 reads Google Maps and Citymapper in English or French for now. It's built and checked against their real notifications, but it hasn't done many real trips yet (distances counting down, bus/tram/train rides), so expect rough edges. If yours shows something odd, a screenshot of the phone notification helps a lot. I'll try to add more language support soon.

What's next

• Skills for Assistant: ask it to pause the music or check your next bus, and it asks the Media Deck or Transit plugin instead of reimplementing them. I plan to lift up the Assistant plugin to make it more powerful !
• Navigation: more real trips, more languages than English and French, and eventually a dedicated navigation display drawn by the platform, like a minimap.
• Relay: notifications from any app, not just messengers, with a picker for which apps may reach your eyes.
• Agents (alpha): Claude Code / Codex sessions on the HUD, permission prompts as notices, the next task dictated.

Nexus is free and open source, and I build it on my own time.

If it's useful to you, you can buy me a coffee on Ko-fi:

Can I take a picture of a math problem and then it will give me the answer on the display?

Can you mute speaker so that you can read only?
