Pacific Lens: The Company You Need to Know About This Month
Pacific Lens has rolled out camera-free smart glasses that help Gold Coast workers manage tasks and navigation in high-traffic tourism sites.
How we reported this

Pacific Lens released its Aura smart glasses on July 10 with a focus on productivity features that avoid any built-in cameras or recording.
Gold Coast businesses face rising visitor volumes this month as the July school holidays draw families to the region, pushing demand for tools that streamline operations without adding privacy risks in crowded public spaces.
Early deployments target staff at Pacific Fair shopping centre in Broadbeach and along the retail strips of Cavill Avenue in Surfers Paradise, where the glasses sync with existing city council wayfinding systems and the Gold Coast Tech Week training modules run at the Southport innovation precinct.
Internal testing data from March through June showed a 28 percent drop in average task completion times for navigation and inventory checks, with each unit carrying a $599 price tag and a two-year hardware warranty.
Local Rollout Details
The company supplies the glasses through partnerships with the Gold Coast City Council smart-city pilot and Griffith University’s Gold Coast campus entrepreneurship lab, where developers adapt the AI models to local transport routes and beachfront venue layouts.
Businesses can order batches of ten or more units directly from the Pacific Lens site, with on-site setup sessions scheduled at the Southport facility starting next week.
Next Steps for Operators
Operators should check stock levels on the company website and book a demonstration at the Gold Coast Tech Week pop-up before the end of July to test the glasses against their specific workflow needs.
