Subvocal builds silent speech input smart glasses
What happened
YC F26 team The Subvocal Company is building smart glasses that let users type to a computer by mouthing words silently, per a November 3 report. The team first prototyped with EMG electrodes at TreeHacks, then switched to a radio-frequency (RF) approach because of sweating, electrical interference and wearability. The RF signals read silent mouth shapes and decode them into text at close to normal speaking speed. The product is still early, and users need practice to use it reliably.

YC F26 团队 The Subvocal Company 正在开发一款智能眼镜，通过射频信号读取闭口默念的口型并解码为文字，速度接近正常语速。团队最初在 TreeHacks 用 EMG 电极做原型，因出汗、电气干扰和佩戴体验问题改用 RF 方案。目前产品仍处早期阶段，需练习才能稳定使用。
