MIAMI, Feb. 6, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Innovative Eyewear, Inc. ("Innovative Eyewear"
or the "Company") (NASDAQ: LUCY; LUCYW), the developer and retailer
of smart eyewear under the Lucyd®, Nautica® and Eddie Bauer®
brands, is pleased to announce major developments in its Vyrb
social audio app, which is in open beta on iOS and Android.
Vyrb is a full social media platform designed for
wearables, which offers a suite of tools for creating, sharing and
enjoying audio content in a frictionless, handsfree format. While
it offers a complete visual interface, the app provides a set of
unique handsfree social utilities accessed through voice assistants
like Siri®. The company has just completed a powerful new live
broadcasting feature called "On Air", which enables users to create
real-time audio chatrooms with up to 100 visitors and multiple
active speakers. The company believes this new feature will be a
useful tool for audio content creators and collaborative work.
"Lucyd Eyewear is not simply another smartglass, it is an
evolution in optical eyewear that makes it easier than ever to
create and consume audio content," says Innovative Eyewear CEO
Harrison Gross. "We are supporting
our hardware platform with audio-focused software to enable
seamless communication, content generation and social interaction
on our frames as well as other wearables. The introduction of the
On Air feature to our Vyrb app is a milestone where we have
enhanced the popular and useful real-time chat functionality found
in other social apps, by adapting it to an ecosystem purpose-built
for wearable communications. Now, Vyrb users will be able to
communicate with a vast team and host live audio events with large
audiences. After a user concludes an On Air session, they have the
option to save a recording of it on their Vyrb profile and share to
other platforms."
In addition to the On Air feature, Vyrb's latest release
includes an audio upload feature that allows users to port audio
files they created outside of Vyrb into the app, mix in sound
effects, and share to their profile. This feature enables content
creators to quickly upload their audio content library into
Vyrb.
