Rollme has pushed AI camera glasses down to sunglasses prices with two new models priced at $99.99 each. The imaging setup is shared across both frames: Sony’s 12MP sensor, stabilized electronically, feeding AI visual recognition, real-time translation, open-ear audio, and voice features.

The company says the camera can grab a photo about 0.6 seconds after the shutter is pressed, with stabilization support for first-person footage. Rollme is keeping several camera specifics quiet for now, including video resolution, frame rate, and onboard storage.

Live translation handles spoken conversations, which gives the glasses a clear travel use case. Audio comes from dual open-ear speakers, with high-sensitivity mics and noise reduction carrying Bluetooth calls.

The two models differ mainly in looks. AuraView uses a half-rim metal frame with brown-tinted lenses, while ProView has a fuller frame and ships with clear and dark lenses for indoor and outdoor wear. Both run on a 280mAh battery that Rollme describes as good for all-day use, though it has not given an hourly runtime figure.

The launch follows the AU$89 Anko AI camera glasses that sold out in Australia, and lands well below the $299 Rokid Style with its 4K Sony camera and the premium Ray-Ban Meta line. Meta has also built safeguards that kill the camera feed if its recording indicator is interfered with, and firms such as Solos market physical privacy accessories.

The $100 price point forces trade-offs, but the real story is that cameras, mics, AI, and on-face recognition now cost pocket change. The price floor for camera eyewear keeps falling, and Rollme is the latest brand betting that shoppers will notice.
