MIAMI, Oct. 24,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Innovative Eyewear, Inc.
("Innovative Eyewear" or "the Company") (NASDAQ: LUCY; LUCYW), the
developer of smart eyewear under the Lucyd®, Nautica®, Eddie Bauer®
and Reebok® brands, received on October
23rd, a notice of allowance for its utility
patent application U.S. Patent Application No. 17/104,849, entitled
"Wireless Smartglasses with Quick Connect Front Frames". After
paying the required issue fee, the Company anticipates that a
patent will issue in due course. The patent is directed to
smartglasses that pair or connect with other mobile devices and
have removable front frames connected with a quick-disconnect
hinge, which allows end users to customize their glasses after
purchase with a variety of lens types and frontplate styles.
"User-interchangeable parts are a longstanding feature of
popular consumer goods, and the value of this in eyewear is even
greater than most products," said Harrison
Gross, CEO of Innovative Eyewear. "This is due to the
variety of lens functionalities sought by many consumers, such as
sunglasses, reading glasses and all-day wear prescription lenses;
not to mention the preference for some to have a variety of glasses
for fashion purposes. Interchangeable hinges are a feature we have
developed for future Lucyd eyewear products, to enable easier and
more affordable customization, and less electronic waste, and this
new patent protection will help us secure this feature for the
smart eyewear market."
Innovative Eyewear has yet to announce a product with this
feature. The Company believes that with the success of a separate
interchangeable front technology seen in other product lines,
modular eyewear represents a new category of products that will
also benefit from the addition of Lucyd smart features.
