For those who need to wear glasses, Lucyd offers [prescription eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/custom-3dprinted-glasses-frames) and a myriad of lens options for ultimate comfort outdoors. Co-founder and CEO Gross says "The audio glasses available were clunky, expensive, unfashionable, and not comfortable enough for all-day wear. Lucyd Bluetooth glasses are a true upgrade to eyewear that help you stay connected to your digital life and correct your vision." These problem-solving sunglasses have been granted exclusive rights to 24 total pending and granted patents, including a trio of utility patents and 21 design patents. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 84% | Freshness: 10% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Open-ear Audio Technology:** There is an opportunity to develop more lightweight and innovative wearable devices that use open-ear audio technology. - **Multifunctional Eyewear:** Eyewear companies can integrate additional functions such as Bluetooth into their product lines to enhance customers' overall experiences. - **Connected Eyewear:** New designs for connected eyewear could revolutionize how people interact with technology on a daily basis. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Eyewear:** Eyewear manufacturers could benefit from incorporating additional technological features like Bluetooth access into their products. - **Personal Audio Equipment:** Manufacturers of personal audio equipment could benefit from exploring the potential of open-ear audio technology in their products. - **Wearable Technology:** There is potential for innovation and growth in the wearable technology industry for companies that develop multifunctional, connected devices like the Lucyd Bluetooth Sunglasses. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Voice-Assistant Sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lucyd-2.md) - [Connected UV Protection Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lucyd-lyte.md) - [Sport-Friendly Smart Sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reebok-octane.md) - [Smart Safety Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lucyd-armor.md) - [AI-Powered Eyewear Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lucyd-app.md) - [Sports-Focused Smart Classes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/innovative-eyewear.md) - [Audio-Focused Smart Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xiaomi-mijia-smart-audio-glasses.md) - [Chatgpt-Enabled Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lucyd.md) - [Tech-Equipped Eyewear Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nautica.md)
