Your Wearable Tech App Development Partner

We design and engineer wearable tech apps for smart glasses, AI glasses, smartwatches, and AR: everything moving the display off the phone.

Overview

L+R was an early partner on Meta’s Wearables Device Access Toolkit, the first toolkit built for AI glasses, and the work runs from net-new glasses apps to bringing your existing mobile product onto a wearable.

What Makes a Wearable Different

A wearable works under different constraints than a phone. The screen is glanceable or gone, input is voice or gesture, the battery budget is measured in hours, and most of the compute happens on-device or not at all. Those constraints decide what an app can be.

Interaction design: deciding what deserves to interrupt someone, and what belongs on the paired phone.

Platform SDKs: building directly against wearable toolkits, including Meta’s Wearables Device Access Toolkit.

Companion apps: connecting the wearable to your existing mobile product on one roadmap.

Device testing: on the real hardware, because emulators don’t have a battery, a camera, or a low-light hallway.

When I first experienced the Ray-Ban Meta glasses, it was a clear glimpse into the future of wearable technology. Its a significant advancement, and our team is eager to explore the new opportunities it presents for our clients.”
