We’ve been hearing about Samsung‘s smart glasses for some time now, and the company even trademarked the name “Galaxy Glasses” back in 2023. In a new development, Samsung has now filed a patent with the World Intellectual Property Organization for its smart glasses.

Uncovered by Patently Apple, the patent shows us the possible design of Samsung’s smart glasses along with its charging case.

While the design of the glasses doesn’t stray far from that of regular spectacles, the patent does reveal some technical details about it.

You can see the lenses at their default place, but its left rim has magnetic connection points that will allow the glasses to charge while placed on their cover. The batteries, as you can see in the FIG.6, are located within each temple tip.

Curiously, the patent makes no mention of cameras or sensors – components commonly expected in XR devices. While I’m not sure, this particular patent may focus solely on the physical design. And Samsung might file separate, subsequent patents covering the more complex technical aspects of an invention.

Additionally, the image FIG. 4B in the patent shows the internal configuration of the wearable device while the images FIG. 7B and 7C show the charging case design.

While the patent does offer some insights, it’s too early to say if Samsung will actually launch this product. Not all patented ideas become real products.

We’ll likely need to wait for further leaks or official announcements from Samsung to get a clearer picture.
