These smart glasses fill the crucial communication-tech void that Metix is renowned for addressing. Previous products in the Metix Store have empowered workers with hands-free communication capabilities. Our overarching goal is to enhance productivity by connecting frontline workers with the right experts, regardless of their physical location, and Vuzix devices are instrumental in achieving this objective.

Ash Vadolia, Head of Brand at Chironix, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership: "Vuzix devices will help connect experts with remote workers and trainees on the other side of the planet. We look forward to supporting the workforce with these products."
