Senth IN1 are augmented reality smart glasses being developed by a Chinese company Insenth. They were fist announced through the company's IndieGoGo crowdfunding campaign to secure the finance to develop and test the first prototypes of the device. The glasses are designed for cyclists and come with a cadence sensor that attaches to the bicycle frame and a wireless controller that attaches to handlebars so the user can control the device without lifting their hands from them. Senth IN1 offers a variety of functions that should be useful for cyclists, such as cadence meter, GPS-based location and navigation, slope information, hand-free access to phone functions, camera, and music player. The users can also access Interned through built-in Wi-Fi.

The IndieGoGo campaign ended successfully on 5 September 2015, with 119% of the project funded.[3]

The company planned to ship the first prototypes to early backers in December 2015 but ran into problems with the electronic board design. This postponed the launch of the device to January 2016.[4]
