According to the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Galaxy Glasses trademark registration includes virtual reality headsets, augmented reality headsets, headphones, smartphones and smart glasses.
In most cases, companies register trademarks to cover a wide range of products so they can play around with the idea. However, it’s still too early to say whether the Samsung Galaxy Glass will be a headset or a smart glass.
The company has also filed a trademark in the United States for “Galaxy Ring,” a wearable smart ring that can track, measure, monitor, and upload health, fitness, and sleep-related information.
There is currently no information on if and when the two devices will be available in stores, or if they will be linked or function independently. However, it may not be long before Samsung announces these devices as the brands are on public records.
Last October, Meta announced the Quest Pro — a virtual reality headset priced at $1,500 premium. Apple soon jumped on the bandwagon, too, and is reportedly working on a mixed reality headset to compete with Meta’s latest VR headset.
