First known as ION Glasses, WeOn Glasses are a pair of regular looking prescription glasses and sunglasses that interact with a smartphone or tablet. Unlike the majority of smart glasses, Weon Glasses do not have a display projecting the information in wearer’s field of vision. Instead, the device uses colour LED lights to notify the wearer about incoming alerts on smartphone or tablet. ION App, available in iOS and Android (or Mac or PC), allows the user to preselect the light code for different types of notifications, while the light signal is visible only to the user.
WeOn Glasses offer several functions: Notifications, gadgets remote control, anti-loss alerts, and customization.<ref>Functions. weon Glasses [online].

IndieGoGo [online]. Available online at: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ion-glasses-first-optical-and-sun-smartglasses-that-interact-with-your-devices#/story (Retrieved Jul 29, 2015)</ref> Notifications include text messages, emails, social network updates, incoming calls, and calendar appointments. The LED light can be configured with 256 colours and blinking frequency, allowing the user to personalize the alerts, both light and audible. The buttons on the device can be used to remotely control other devices and play music, take photos and videos, activate voice recorder, and pass presentation slides. WeOn’s radar function makes both smartphone and glasses beep when they are outside of pre-specified radius. Also, the smartphone will beep on press of a button on the glasses and glasses will beep via ION App on the smartphone, so one never loses his/her devices.
