Amazon reportedly developing ‘Jayhawk’ and ‘Amelia’ AR glasses
Recent reports indicate Amazon is working on two augmented reality (AR) eyewear projects:
- Jayhawk (consumer) — A consumer AR headset reportedly with microphones, speakers, a camera and a full-color monocular display in one eye. Expected release window: late 2026 or early 2027.
- Amelia (delivery drivers) — A productivity-focused AR headset to assist Amazon delivery drivers, reportedly designed to shave seconds off delivery tasks. Possible availability: Q2 2026, with initial production suggested to be sizable.
