In a post on X (previously Twitter), the company said that unlike the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, Pickle 1 is a “soul computer” in the sense that it will remember everything you see and do.
The AR glasses run on Pickle OS, an in-house developed operating system which the company says “seamlessly collects your context from every source, every day and organize as a single cluster.” Pickle also claims that the operating system “has infinite memory” and can recall things you saw and heard when you need them.

The AR glasses interact with users through a wide range of interactive avatars that can converse with them. It also has a built-in fingerprint scanner on the side of the frame, meaning only the user will be able to unlock and use it. Also, unlike AI-powered smart glasses, which require users to ask questions, Pickle says that the Pickle 1 sees things “before you see it” and anticipates the wearer’s actions in real time. It can also help users book rides, read messages, make reservations and shop for things.

However, to provide personalised recommendations, Pickle suggests that users wear the AR glasses for “at least 3 hours” a day and have “over 50 or visual interactions”. Weighing just 68 grams, the Pickle 1 features a full colour display and “ultra fast computing with no latency. ” Powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset, the glasses have a 12-hour battery, meaning you can wear them all day long without having to charge.
Talking of privacy, Pickle claims its operating system encrypts data by default and decrypts it “only inside a hardware-isolated enclave.” The company goes on to say that when users interact with a third party applications, the data is neither retained nor used for training or any other purposes.
Currently, Pickle 1 is open for pre-order for those living in the United States for $799 (approx. Rs 72,000), with delivery starting in the second quarter of the year.
