Initial Ultralite OEM orders enable new AR/AI use cases across additional business units

ROCHESTER, N.Y., March 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Vuzix® Corporation (NASDAQ:VUZI), ("Vuzix" or, the "Company"), a leading supplier of AI-powered smart glasses, waveguides, and augmented reality technologies, today announced that a leading global online retail company has expanded its deployment of Vuzix smart glasses through follow-on orders for its M400 platform and initial OEM orders for the Ultralite Pro platform-based smart glasses.

Following successful initial deployments in Europe, the program has now entered commercial rollout across the United States and Canada, supporting a broader range of operational workflows within the customer's logistics and infrastructure environments.

The continuing smart glasses orders reflect growing adoption of Vuzix smart glasses within the customer's warehouse operations, where hands-free access to real-time information is improving efficiency and accuracy. The addition of Ultralite Pro-based OEM smart glasses is intended to support expansion into additional use cases, including areas such as server infrastructure, warehousing, and robotics-related applications, extending deployments across new regions, business units, and workflows.

"This expansion from their successful initial deployments into a broader commercial rollout across multiple regions and use cases highlights the growing role of smart glasses in large-scale enterprise operations," said Paul Travers, President and CEO of Vuzix. "Our ability to support both off-the-shelf and custom AR/AI smart glasses solutions allows us to grow within existing customers while opening the door to broader deployment across additional workflows and business units."
