OpenGlass: Ultra-Low-Power On-Device AI Eyewear with Event-based Vision

Smart eyewear enables unobtrusive, context-aware interaction through multimodal sensors and on-device intelligence, but is severely limited by power, memory, and compute constraints in a compact form factor. Open-hardware platforms supporting event-based vision and embedded ML at this scale are rare. This work introduces an open-source smart glasses platform for rapid prototyping of novel sensors and algorithms. Its modular design uses a flexible FPC interposer to support both event-based and frame-based cameras without full PCB redesign. A hardware-software co-designed power management system combines a configurable PMIC with event-driven wake-up via an nRF5340 coordinator, keeping the GAP9 RISC-V SoC powered down between inferences. The prototype achieves up to 11.5 hours of continuous on-device ML from a 200 mAh battery. As a demonstration, an egocentric hand gesture recognition pipeline was evaluated on the LynX dataset using polarity-separated event histograms from a Prophesee GENX320 camera. R(2+1)D achieved the best cross-subject accuracy of 83.94\% (macro F1 = 0.781) under leave-two-subjects-out validation, with 78.3 ms end-to-end inference latency on the GAP9. Temporal augmentation and removal of ambiguous classes provided the largest gains (+8.9 pp). All hardware designs, firmware, and models are released open source.
