After two years of building quietly, I’m excited to share what I’ve been working on: a new kind of hearing eyewear, made for conversation. At @altina, we’re designing eyeglasses with AI-powered hearing enhancement to help people stay engaged, even in noisy environments. We’re collaborating with the British eyewear brand Cubitts, one of London’s most respected eyewear makers.

Here, I found AI-powered glasses with a positive vision for the world. They look beautiful as well.

@btal @altina With AI, can I ask it to listen to only the interesting people in the room? Or only specific topics? 😊

Altina is out of stealth, launching fashion glasses that not only look good, but use AI to help people hear better. I handled the design & development of the site with @framer

@adelbucetta @altina Definitely. It’s not just about noise reduction. It’s making speech intelligible. That’s a core part of what on-device AI processing unlocks.

@btal @altina the real unlock is not just noise reduction but actually understanding the conversation, even when you can't hear it clearly. that's what most hearing aids still don't get right.

@ikkou Couldn’t agree more. It’s important for smart glasses to be style-first. Your face is your identity!

@btal I believe one key factor for glasses-type devices to reach the mainstream—beyond gadget-loving geeks—is style. From that perspective, the collaboration with Cubitts is fantastic. It’s already being worn by well-known artists and celebrities in Japan.

聴覚拡張のヒアラブルデバイスだ! ジャンルとしては EssilorLuxottica の Nuance Audio と同じ系統! 眼鏡本体は有名なロンドンの Cubitts が手掛けているのが個人的にはとてもアツい 🇬🇧 直近で言う Even のようなマス向けではないものの必要とする人が一定いるはず。

@btal @altina Oh that's dope! If y'all need user feedback during the testing phase, do keep me in mind. In any case, it's a pretty neat way of addressing the problem 👍🏽

@ishmael_os @altina Appreciate it! The frames are made out of Mazzucchelli acetate and can be adjusted like traditional glasses. The electronics inside are designed to withstand the temperatures opticians use to adjust acetate frames.

@btal @altina Damn these are nice! I've been looking for some new frames. How does the tech/frame handle adjustment with heat?

@btal @altina Question: is this for hard-of-hearing folks? I fall in this category; in noisy places, it's a challenge to hear the person next to me, but not sure if that's what this product is intended for
