About AR Glasses Overlay
A design system for display glasses you wear all day. On an additive waveguide, black emits no light and reads as clear glass, so the real street is the page and the interface is reduced to a handful of bright marks: a notification capsule at the edge of view, an arrow pinned to the pavement, one line of white text.
Built on the Jetpack Compose Glimmer palette and Google Sans Flex, it treats attention as the scarce resource. Content stays small, bright and peripheral; dark plates appear only where legibility needs them, and everything fades away when ignored.
