Subvocal is developing glasses for silent speech-to-text
Technology · First reported 2 Nov, 17:16 · Updated 18:07
The Subvocal Company says its prototype uses radio-frequency sensing to convert silent mouth movements into text. The founders say they plan to continue development and aim to ship in Q1 2027.
- The founders say the glasses use radio waves that interact with the tongue, lips and soft palate as a person silently mouths words; models decode the resulting signals into text.
- The founders say they moved from facial EMG electrodes to RF sensing, and collected training data from people reading prompts while wearing the glasses.
- The company says it plans further research and development, aims to ship in Q1 2027, and has opened preorders for a first batch of 500 units.
