Smart glasses that quietly recognize the people around you — showing names, relationships, and warm context. For dementia patients and the people who love them.
The Problem
Dementia robs patients of the most fundamental human experience — knowing who is in the room. The fear, confusion, and heartbreak is both profound and preventable.

How It Works
The glasses quietly scan for familiar faces — no buttons, no setup, no cloud. Recognition happens on-device in under two seconds.
A gentle display shows the person's name, their relationship to you, and a warm memory — enough to restore confidence, nothing that overwhelms.
A calm, familiar voice through the glasses offers spoken context, gentle reminders, and daily orientation — warm, patient, always there.
The Caregiver App
Vela's caregiver app keeps the family in sync — voice check-ins, doctor-ready reports, passive health trends, and quiet patterns nobody else would catch. Available now while the glasses ship.
