Meanwhile, the new RayNeo GT Series (available in GT and GT Max models) is designed to deliver a cinema-grade experience. The flagship GT Max model offers a wide 59-degree field of view (FOV), with its 5.5th-gen Tandem MicroOLED display delivering a dynamically scaling virtual screen up to 307 inches. The GT Series can also be paired with RayNeo Pocket TV Pro to create the world's first AR glasses system with Dolby Vision playback, including AI-powered SDR-to-HDR.

The new RayNeo GT Series is also designed for an at-home or on-the-go cinematic experience for watching movies and playing games, with modes that include anchoring the virtual screen in a 3D space as well as a Steady Mode designed to filter travel bumps and movement while traveling. Audio-wise, there's also a quad-speaker system with head-tracking and Bang & Olufsen Spatial Audio.

With the RayNeo iO Smart Glasses aimed at productivity, they feature targeted voice capture capabilities, plus a 240mAh battery that offers 6.2 hours of continuous AI-powered translation or 18 hours of continuous recording. When connected via Bluetooth, users can choose which LLM to use (including Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude, and DeepSeek) through the companion app. It's built to last, too, with a magnesium-aluminum alloy frame and dual aerospace-grade titanium temples.

"RayNeo iO and the GT Series represent a fundamental commitment to purpose-built spatial hardware," said Howie Li, Founder and CEO of RayNeo. "Rather than compromising with a single device that tries to do everything, we designed two dedicated experiences: the iO as an invisible, all-day assistant for heads-up productivity, and the GT Series as an uncompromising personal cinema for travel and entertainment. Together, they deliver intuitive tools tailored precisely to how people work and relax every day."
