Glimpse into the Future with Even Realities

​We're bringing G2 to AWE Long Beach for a workshop with the people who actually built it.

​Even G2 is the first pair of consumer smart glasses with a 576×288 monochrome waveguide display, the Even R1 ring as a dedicated input device, and an open plugin platform (Even Hub) running on real hardware in the wild today.

​This event is for the engineers, hardware folks, and platform-curious developers who want to go past the keynote slides and into the how — how the optics work, how the chip stack is designed, how the SDK exposes hardware to third-party plugins, and why we think glasses are the next computing platform.

​Most of the evening is conversation with Tom (CTO) and Raag (DevRel). The last block is hands-on: write a small plugin on a real pair of Even G2 so you walk out having actually shipped something to a pair of glasses.

​Speakers

​Tom Ouyang - CTO, Even Realities Tom is the Co-founder and CTO of Even Realities, leading an R&D powerhouse of over 100 engineers to redefine the future of AI Smart Glasses. With a relentless focus on user-centric design and technical innovation, he drives the company's technology roadmap and oversees the end-to-end lifecycle from prototype to global mass production.

​Agenda (~2 hours)

• ​0–10 min — Welcome, hands-on with G2 + R1 (everyone wears a pair)

• ​10–55 min — Tom keynote: Glasses Are the AI Hardware

  • ​The optics: monochrome waveguide, 576×288, the trade-offs we made

  • ​Hardware architecture: codec chip, BLE link, the R1 input model

  • ​Why glasses (not phones, not headsets) are the next computing platform

• ​55–80 min — Raag: EvenHub Platform Deep Dive

  • ​SDK architecture and the Tri-Sync model (App → G2 → R1)

  • ​Plugin lifecycle, sandboxing, real-device deploy via .ehpk

  • ​Live coding: a plugin from npm init to G2 in under 5 minutes

• ​80–90 min — Break, form teams

• ​90–115 min — Hands-on plugin build on real G2 hardware

• ​115–130 min — Q&A with Tom, showcase, wrap

​What You Get

• ​A plugin you wrote, running on a real pair of G2

• ​Direct technical access to our CTO and DevRel team

• ​Starter repository + EvenHub SDK access

• ​An honest, technical look at where this platform is going

​Who This Is For

​Engineers, firmware hardware developers, platform builders, ARXR practitioners, and anyone asking "what's the actual hardware stack behind these things?" Bring your sharpest questions for Tom.

​Requirements

​Laptop (macOS, Linux, or Windows) with Node 18+ installed.
