The BleeqUp Ranger are new smart glasses that are now crowdfunding on Kickstarter. These glasses have been designed for athletes and bikers who would like to take high-quality videos and images of their workouts, as they are equipped with a camera that can take pictures with a resolution of 16 megapixels.
Users can also look forward to some AI features, which should improve image quality in low-light conditions, for example. Furthermore, these smart glasses can detect hard braking or even accidents and then automatically save the recorded video. The aforementioned camera has a 120° field of view and offers image stabilization when recording video.
The BleeqUp Ranger have a battery life of up to 5 hours when taking videos, but that runtime can be increased by another 4 hours with an additional battery pack that can be attached to the back of a helmet, for instance. Full-HD video is taken at 30 frames per second.
Speakers with two dynamic drivers are built-in and can be used for voice calls even in wind speeds of up to 19mph. Moreover, these glasses weigh just 1.7 oz and can be controlled via touch or a separate controller that can be mounted on handlebars.
Additionally, the manufacturer advertises compatibility with various apps such as Strava. Users can also get audible info on their route by importing GPX files. The BleeqUp Ranger are powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 and have 32GB of internal storage capacity. WiFi and Bluetooth are supported as well. These smart glasses are now available on Kickstarter, backers can reserve a pair by pledging $300. Deliveries are expected for June 2025, but users should be aware of the usual financial risks of crowdfunding campaigns.
