The glasses can shoot both photos and video, which is stored in memory embedded in one of the earpieces. The earpiece can be removed and connected via USB to a printer of the images can be transferred via Bluetooth.

The glasses also feature a screen in front of each eye that can play back recorded images.

Lady Gaga said inspiration for the product, which is still a prototype, came from a pair of glasses she used once on tour.
