Glasses Tracker

A Bluetooth tracker that lives on the temple of your glasses.

Where did I put them?

01 / The problem

Notice it.

Glasses get lost far more often than keys, and they are the one thing you cannot look for without them. Existing trackers are too thick and too heavy to hang off an eyeglass frame.

02 / The solution

Make it better.

A slim silicone sleeve that slides over the temple tip of any pair of glasses and hides a tiny tracker inside. A curved lithium cell and a Bluetooth board sit in a foam-isolated shell, with pogo-pin pads for charging. Three sleeve sizes cover most frames.

Details
  • Sleeve wall 1.8 mm, 25 to 30 mm long
  • BLE board 12 x 8 x 2 mm
  • 10 mAh curved LiPo cell, 18 x 8 x 2 mm
  • Foam isolation, pogo-pin charging pads
  • Three sleeve sizes
  • Works with Find My style networks
What’s next

Antenna tuning inside the sleeve and a battery-life test on real frames.
