EssilorLuxottica Smart Eyewear Lab: Integrating AI and Health into Your Glasses

EssilorLuxottica Smart Eyewear Lab: Integrating AI and Health into Your Glasses

EssilorLuxottica and Politecnico di Milano have joined forces in the Smart Eyewear Lab to transform glasses into intelligent devices. Launched in 2022, the initiative explores advanced technologies such as eye tracking, miniaturized sensors, and augmented reality to merge vision, health, and connectivity.

How did EssilorLuxottica’s Smart Eyewear Lab begin?

The lab was created in 2022 through a strategic partnership between EssilorLuxottica and Politecnico di Milano. It brings together over 100 multidisciplinary researchers and scientists to design glasses with smart, connected, and human-centered functions.

What are the key technologies the Lab is exploring?

Research focuses on three main areas: eye tracking for precise interactions and preventive health insights, discreet integration of cameras and sensors to analyze context and user intent, and optical augmentation to overlay useful information naturally within the field of view without disrupting perception.

How does eye tracking become a preventive health tool?

By recording eye movements in real time, this technology can help detect early signs of neurological or systemic diseases. The Smart Eyewear Lab is developing miniaturized, energy-efficient solutions that fit seamlessly into comfortable frames, offering unprecedented diagnostic potential.

How is traditional eyewear design preserved with advanced functions?

The teams prioritize invisible integration of technological components. Sensors, cameras, and high-definition displays are designed to maintain the aesthetics and comfort of traditional eyewear, while enabling natural and immersive interaction with the environment.

What role does education play in this project?

In September 2025, Politecnico di Milano will launch an interdisciplinary program in smart wearable technologies. With 750 hours of specialized training, it will prepare future experts in optics, electronics, interactive design, advanced materials, and artificial intelligence.

Why highlight this collaboration today?

Because it exemplifies the convergence of optical innovation and connected health, laying the foundation for smart glasses that enhance vision, well-being, and interaction with the world.
