About

We are a team of engineers and designers who have built and used wearable computers for years to decades. We build Raven Prism, a stylish ambient computer made for technical creatives.

We design the hardware and software for Raven Prism in-house at our San Francisco lab. We care deeply about joyful human-computer interaction design, open ecosystems, and user privacy.

We are backed by Draper Associates (Tim Draper), Horizon, Bain Capital, IAG Capital, Clay, and other VCs and angels.

We were founded by Tom Suarez, an electrical and software engineer who has consistently worn Google Glass and other customized AR/VR devices since 2013. Tom also did wearable computing research under Dr. Thad Starner, a pioneer in this space since the 1990s, at Georgia Tech's Contextual Computing Group. Our team has contributed to projects at the MIT Media Lab, Apple, Samsung, Microsoft, XREAL and more.
