Vienna, October 8, 2025 — Leads & Copy — Viewpointsystem has launched VPS Next, the third generation of its eye-tracking smart glasses, designed for demanding environments such as training and manufacturing. The glasses offer features such as live streaming, real-time expert support, and visualization of the user’s focus of attention in the video stream. The new VPS Next is lightweight and robust, offering powerful features such as live streaming, real-time expert support, and visualization of the user’s focus of attention in the video stream – live and clear for everyone involved.
According to Nils Berger, CEO and founder of Viewpointsystem, customers expect smart glasses that work smoothly and accurately even in shifting light conditions, during dynamic movement, or when the glasses shift. He added that with VPS Next, the company is raising the bar with an all-new flexible design with up to three configurations, adapting seamlessly to both tasks and users. The glasses start at 38 g, depending on configuration, and provide multiple variants within a single, adaptable design – ranging from certified safety glasses to a rimless, lens-free model for an unobstructed view.
VPS Next is ready for immediate deployment and features intuitive operation via a single multi-mode button on the frame. Live video from the wearer’s perspective can be streamed wirelessly to any smartphone, laptop, or tablet, allowing any number of experts worldwide to provide real-time support and communication via audio and video. It’s also possible to draw annotations directly into the live stream. All data is transmitted securely in encrypted form, without caching, and stored only locally on the device- ensuring users retain full control and access to their data at all times.
The system features a compact 95 g computing unit with full connectivity (WiFi, mobile data, Bluetooth) that connects to the glasses via cable. It can be carried in a pocket or mounted on a helmet, arm, or belt. Companies including Toyota, Denso, and Deutsche Bahn (German Railway) are already leveraging the technology. Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) employ Viewpointsystem’s smart glasses in shunting operations. Within a year, unauthorized signal overruns – a critical safety risk – dropped by 44%.
In defense, the Austrian Armed Forces, the Canadian military, and other NATO member forces use the technology to train attention and perception skills. In the event of production disruptions or machine issues, experts can connect within minutes to guide frontline staff on site. A leading international brewery group reduced costs by around USD 40,000 per incident. An Eastern European manufacturer boosted production line output by 18% using VPS smart glasses.
In professional sports, a top European football club analyzes players’ visual behavior in tactical situations – such as turnovers or crosses – using VPS smart glasses. The glasses start at 38 g (depending on configuration), Lite Unit 95 g. The price starts from 5,040 USD, depending on software package.
