Lucyd is an augmented reality company building first lightweight, prescription-ready and mainstream smartglasses with a blockchain app ecosystem. Lucyd Lens is possible thanks to 13 advanced optics patents and an AR app blockchain. The Lens will be supported by the Lucyd Lab blockchain, which makes it easy to develop and distribute AR-native content. It’s all powered by the LCD token, which organically drives content creation for the first AR platform with mass appeal. In short, Lucyd is creating a new AR ecosystem, where anyone can swiftly develop, share and experience content on our user-friendly smartglasses.
Lucyd has a technology advantage in the AR space because it has 13 advanced patents and a team of optics experts that will allow for the development of a uniquely powerful pair of smartglasses. Lucyd Lens will seek to be the first that is lightweight, ergonomic, wirefree, comfortable, accommodates corrective lenses and appears like a normal pair of glasses. It will be an interactive AR peripheral that can display Android and iOS content in AR, while also supporting Lucyd-native content. Some notable features of this smart glass are as below.
A flush, unibody design for a discreet, customizable look. Existing AR devices are notorious for drawing unwanted attention.
All circuitry is contained within the frames, so it looks and feels just like a normal pair of glasses.
Can be outfitted with prescription lenses.
Lens-integrated, stereoscopic LCD microdisplays for a long battery life and ergonomic feel.
Bluetooth connection to iPhone/Android to experience your favorite apps in AR.
Integrated microphone and bone-conducting speakers for easy calling and voice control.
Can be connected to Bluetooth peripherals such as speakers and keyboards.
Integrated front camera for photo/video capture.
Navigate handsfree with custom controls among eye tracking, voice control, and finger tracking input options.
A large field of view for HD AR graphics.
Lucyd Token Sale
Lucyd is offering a new token named LCD, which is an opportunity to help develop and potentially experience the next big thing in AR. This is possible because Lucyd has 13 synergistic patents and a team of optics and AR experts which enable the design of Lucyd Lens, a pair of lightweight AR smartglasses. With its powerful IP, Lucyd Lens seeks to become the standard in wearable displays, and a functional AR ecosystem.
Acquiring LCD
To accelerate organic adoption and development of Lucyd Lens, they are developing the Lucyd LabAR blockchain. When a 3rd party developer creates new Lucyd-native content, they register it with the Lucyd Lab store. This creates a new block for that app, which then releases LCD to the developer based on the quantity of positive user ratings. This is an additional bonus atop traditional app revenue. Community users of Lucyd content will also be able to receive LCD for actions like ratings and referrals.
Spending LCD
LCD tokens may be used to purchase Lucyd hardware and native content when available. LCD will also function in Lucyd hardware sales. For example, the first 500 units of Lucyd Lens will be reserved for purchase via LCD only, so owning LCD gives you an opportunity to be among the first to wear them. Although actual production costs will vary, these beta Lenses will cost 5,000 LCD, and be available to token event participants Lens. Assuming a successful token event and product, LCD holders will be able to sell LCD on token exchanges for other currencies, and transfer it in AR. Lucyd plans to design developer tools, productivity and entertainment apps made natively for its smartglasses, available via the Lucyd Lab store in-Lens. Such apps would be eligible for purchase via the LCD token. Our goal with Lucyd Lab is primarily to support a 3rd party developer community. Unsold tokens will be burned.
Lucyd Blockchain
Lucyd Lab drives organic app development and user engagement by rewarding positive contributions to the Lucyd community (app development, content, user reviews, etc.) with LCD. LCD can be used to purchase AR hardware and content from Lucyd when available, can be traded on token exchanges, and will enable lightning-fast P2P transactions among Lens wearers.
They are going to automatically reward successful Lucyd developers with LCD based on community-gauged content quality, in addition to normal app revenue. They seek to build a new AR app ecosystem from the ground up, which will be totally peer-to-peer, allowing developers to keep almost all of the revenue generated from their apps. Also they are planning to release Lucyd Lens in early 2019. The first 500 crowdfund contributors over $1200 US/4 ETH will have one of the first pairs automatically reserved.
LCD can be traded on token exchanges, or immediately cashed out in-Lens. Lucyd plans to release developer tools, productivity and entertainment apps made natively for its smartglasses, which may be hosted on the App Store/Google Play until our own app store is live. Such content would be purchasable via LCD.
