[0023] The present application is described below based on the following embodiments, but the present application is not limited to these embodiments. In the detailed description of the present application below, certain specific details are described in detail. Those skilled in the art can fully understand the present application without the description of these details. To avoid obscuring the essence of the present application, well-known methods, processes, procedures, components, and circuits are not described in detail.

[0024] Furthermore, persons of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that the figures provided herein are for illustration purposes only and are not necessarily drawn to scale.

[0025] Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, words like “include”, “comprising” and the like throughout this application should be interpreted as including rather than exclusive or exhaustive; that is, as meaning “including but not limited to”.

[0026] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "first", "second", etc. are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood to indicate or imply relative importance. In addition, in the description of this application, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0027] Figure 1 Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of smart glasses. Figure 1 As shown, the smart glasses include two temples 1, a frame 3, and a transparent conductive layer 4. The two temples 1 are detachably connected to the two sides of the frame 1, and the frame 3 is arranged around the outside of the two lenses. Each temple 1 is provided with a first circuit board 2, and each first circuit board 2 is integrated or connected with multiple electronic components (not shown in the figure), thereby enabling the smart glasses to have different functions. The transparent conductive layer 4 is provided on the frame 3, and the two ends of the transparent conductive layer 4 extend to electrically connect with the two first circuit boards 2, so that signals can be transmitted between the electronic components in the two temples.

[0028] Generally, a processor is provided in one of the temples 1, and the processor is mounted on a first circuit board 2 in the corresponding temple 1 (not shown in the figure). The processor is electrically connected to the transparent conductive layer 4 through the first circuit board 2, so that the processor can control all electronic components in the two temples 1.

[0029] In this embodiment, the frame 3 is a transparent frame, and the transparent conductive layer 4 is formed behind the frame 3, so that the smart glasses can achieve a frameless or fully transparent frame design, enhancing the user's visual experience and comfort.

[0030] like Figure 1As shown, the frame 3 includes a transparent frame body 31 and two opaque ends 32 disposed at either end of the transparent frame body 31. The transparent frame body 31 can be frameless or fully transparent, enhancing the user's visual experience. The opaque ends 32 can conceal electronic components, such as antennas and circuit boards, maintaining a simple and aesthetically pleasing appearance. They also provide greater structural strength and stability.

[0031] Preferably, the two non-transparent studs 32 and the transparent frame body 31 can be integrally formed by two-color injection molding, which can enhance the overall structural strength of the frame and reduce costs. The transparent frame body 31 is made of a material with high optical transparency and a certain mechanical strength, such as polycarbonate or nylon. The non-transparent studs 32 are made of a non-transparent material, such as polyamide plastic.

[0032] In this embodiment, the transparent conductive layer 4 is formed directly on the upper edge of the frame 3 by patterning a transparent conductive material. For example, the transparent conductive layer 4 can be formed directly on the frame 3 by a deposition process (such as organic chemical vapor deposition) or sputtering. This prevents the transparent conductive layer 4 and the frame 3 from falling off, and facilitates a lightweight and thin design with an extremely narrow frame.

[0033] In another embodiment, the transparent conductive layer 4 may be formed on a transparent film through patterning, and then the transparent film is adhered to the frame 3 by transparent adhesive, etc., which is convenient to operate.

[0034] The transparent conductive material, i.e., the material of transparent conductive layer 4, can be selected from materials such as indium tin oxide and graphene. The light transmittance of transparent conductive layer 4 is greater than or equal to 90%, enabling a frameless or fully transparent framed visual experience. Furthermore, the surface of transparent conductive layer 4 is covered with an insulating protective layer to provide physical protection for the transparent conductive layer 4 and improve the overall performance and reliability of the smart glasses. The insulating protective layer is made of a transparent material, such as transparent glue.

[0035] In this embodiment, the transparent conductive layer 4 can be provided on the upper edge of the transparent frame body 31 and both ends of the transparent conductive layer 4 extend to the two non-transparent studs 32. Figure 1 As shown, a second circuit board 5 can be used to electrically connect the transparent conductive layer 4 located on the non-transparent stud 32 to the first circuit board 2 within the temple 1. Specifically, one end of the second circuit board 5 is electrically connected to the first circuit board 2, and the other end of the second circuit board 5 is electrically connected to the transparent conductive layer 4, thereby achieving signal transmission.

[0036] The first circuit board 2 is a flexible printed circuit board or printed circuit board, and the second circuit board 5 is a flexible printed circuit board. With the current connection technology between circuit boards, the width and spacing of the pins can be made into 0.05mm. Taking 40 pins as an example, the width of the connection area can be made into a minimum of about 4mm. The width of the non-transparent pin head can completely cover and hide the second circuit board 5. Figure 1 The dotted area shown further realizes the design of "frameless" or "fully transparent frame".

[0037] In this embodiment, the transparent conductive layer 4 includes a plurality of transparent conductive paths arranged side by side. The number of transparent conductive paths is set according to demand. Among them, the thickness of the transparent conductive layer 4 can reach the micron level, so that the frame can be made light and thin without increasing the overall thickness of the smart glasses. The line width of the transparent conductive path is 10um-50um, and the spacing between adjacent transparent conductive paths is 10um-50um, which makes the width of the transparent frame body 31 extremely narrow, close to the design requirements of frameless and fully transparent frames, and improves the visual comfort of users. For example, if the line width and spacing of the transparent conductive path are both 10um, and the transparent conductive path is 40, then the total width of the transparent conductive layer 4 is 0.8mm, that is, the width of the transparent frame body 31 can be 0.8mm.

[0038] The smart glasses of this embodiment include two temples, a frame, a first circuit board, and a transparent conductive layer. The frame is detachably connected to the temples, and a first circuit board is provided on each temple. The transparent conductive layer is formed on the upper edge of the frame by patterning a transparent conductive material. The two ends of the transparent conductive layer are electrically connected to the first circuit boards of the two temples. The arrangement of the transparent conductive layer enables the smart glasses to have extremely narrow bezels or transparent frames, eliminating the obstruction and incongruity caused by the flexible circuit board, making the smart glasses more aesthetically pleasing. The transparent conductive layer replaces the flexible circuit board, making the frame shape no longer restricted. At the same time, the transparent conductive layer is provided on the frame, making the frame itself part of the circuit, reducing some connectors and assembly steps.

[0039] The foregoing is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Persons skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application are intended to be within the scope of protection of the present application.
