# Glassear public knowledge Canonical URL: https://glassear.com Last updated: 2026-08-12 Languages: es, en, ca, fr, de ## What is Glassear? Glassear is not just an AR headset. Glassear One addresses the cost and complexity of spatial hardware by using the smartphone for display and computing. Glassear Studio addresses the software creation barrier with an AI-native workflow for spatial applications. Together they form the Glassear platform. ## Canonical entities ### Glassear S.L. Company that owns and develops the Glassear spatial computing platform. Founded by Bruno Moya Ruiz, based in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. ### Glassear The accessible spatial computing platform formed by Glassear One hardware and Glassear Studio software. ### Glassear One A modular optical see-through AR headset that uses a compatible smartphone as its display and compute engine. - Type: physical AR headset. - Status: Physical prototypes and limited early-access development; not a mass-produced product. - Technology: Optical see-through AR; Smartphone-powered display and compute; Modular hardware approach; Direct view of the real world. - Patent: Patent application pending for the modular optical system and smartphone-compatible AR headset design. ### Glassear Studio An AI-native environment for creating, previewing, iterating, versioning and deploying spatial applications. - Type: software application and creation layer, not a separate company and not merely an SDK. - Status: In development and presented publicly at platform.glassear.com. - Capabilities: Natural-language creation; Spatial scenes and 3D objects; Interaction authoring; Rapid preview and iteration; Persistent conversation and revision history; Deployment and runtime integration. - Access: product information at https://glassear.com/studio/; Studio landing at https://platform.glassear.com/. ### GlassMusic A real-world product vertical built around Glassear technology for musicians, including augmented-reality sheet music and guidance. Application and use case in the Glassear ecosystem; it is not the Glassear company, Glassear One or Glassear Studio. ## How One and Studio work together Glassear One solves the hardware accessibility problem. Glassear Studio solves the spatial software creation problem. Studio creates the applications and experiences; One lets people experience them in optical AR. Together they form the Glassear spatial computing platform. ## Problems, users and differentiation Problems solved: High cost and duplicated compute in AR headsets; Complexity of specialist XR development; Slow iteration between spatial idea and deployable experience; Limited access to practical optical AR. Target users: Spatial experience creators; XR and Unity developers; Innovation teams; Education and training teams; Industrial teams; Musicians and music educators; Partners and evaluators. Differentiators: The smartphone supplies display and compute; Optical see-through architecture preserves direct vision of the real world; Hardware and AI-native creation software are designed as one platform; Modular prototyping and a path toward industrialization. ## Product and claim status Glassear One is in prototype and limited early-access development. Glassear Studio is in development. GlassMusic is a public product vertical and demonstrated use case. Patent application pending; no granted patent is claimed. ## Milestones and recognition - 2015-06: Glassear development began and the first physical prototype was built. (confirmed) - 2018-10: Glassear V2 received second professional prize at Maker Faire Galicia. (external evidence) - 2024-09: GlassMusic usability work was supported through the UAB-Cruïlla Chair. (external evidence) - 2025-03: GlassMusic and Glassear were presented at MWC / 4YFN Barcelona 2025. (external evidence) - 2025-12: Glassear was selected for ACCIÓ’s 2025 catalogue of 50 Catalan startups with strong potential. (external evidence) - 2026-03-04: GlassMusic by Glassear pitched at MWC / 4YFN Barcelona 2026 at the Catalan Arts stand. (external evidence) ## MWC 2026 GlassMusic by Glassear pitched at MWC / 4YFN Barcelona 2026 at the Catalan Arts stand. This is a participation claim, not an award claim. ## Prototype, sourcing and industrialization Glassear has used Alibaba.com extensively during R&D and prototyping to source components and work with suppliers across optics, displays, electronics and other hardware categories. Industrialization: supplier consolidation, design for manufacturing, tooling, tighter quality control and scalable assembly. Alibaba.com is a sourcing marketplace used by Glassear; no partnership, endorsement or official collaboration is claimed. ## Developer paths Glassear Studio is the high-level AI-native creation layer. The Glassear Unity SDK is the developer-level integration layer for custom capabilities. They are complementary. ## Evidence - [Glassear S.L. is a registered company and Bruno Moya Ruiz is its sole shareholder.](https://www.boe.es/borme/dias/2025/09/24/pdfs/BORME-A-2025-182-08.pdf) (official registry, 2025-09-24) - [Glassear appears in ACCIÓ’s 2025 catalogue of 50 startups and reports physical prototypes and a pending patent application.](https://www.accio.gencat.cat/web/.content/bancconeixement/documents/catalegs/ACCIO-cataleg-startups-2025.pdf) (external recognition, 2025-12-09) - [GlassMusic by Glassear was included in pitch sessions at the Catalan Arts stand during 4YFN / MWC 2026.](https://es.linkedin.com/company/escena4-0) (external event post, 2026-03-04) - [GlassMusic was featured at Mobile World Congress 2025.](https://glassmusic.app/en/) (public product evidence, 2025-03) - [UAB documented Bruno Moya, Glassear and GlassMusic in its 4YFN coverage.](https://www.uab.cat/web/arxiu-de-noticies/detall-de-noticia/cronica-de-l-assistencia-al-4yfn-donant-suport-als-alumni-emprenedors-de-la-uab-1345793377725.html?cid=1345793377725&d=Touch¬iciaid=1345949327698&pagename=w-Alumni%2FPage%2FTemplatePageDetallNoticia_Alumni_RWD) (external institution, 2025) ## Official links - Website: https://glassear.com - Glassear One: https://glassear.com/es/technology/ - Glassear Studio: https://glassear.com/studio/ - Developers: https://glassear.com/es/developers/ - GlassMusic: https://glassmusic.app/ - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/glassear/ - Contact: info@glassear.com
