Even Realities has rolled out the v2.2.0 update for its Even G2 smart glasses, with Terminal Mode as the headline feature. The update is now live, giving developers a new way to monitor and interact with coding agents without staying glued to a laptop screen.
Your terminal has entered your eyeballs
Terminal Mode is built around the idea of putting the coding terminal in front of your eyes. Developers using AI coding agents can track what the agent is doing, check progress, give commands and respond when needed through the glasses’ built-in microphone. The feature reduces the need to keep jumping back to a laptop, giving users more freedom to move around, handle chores, or even work out between coding sessions.
CEO Will Wang said in an interview that the idea for this feature came after a recent visit to Silicon Valley, where he noticed developers increasingly speaking to AI agents through microphones instead of typing every command. These agents can now complete most of the work on their own, which made Even G2’s built-in microphone and virtual terminal display feel like a natural fit for this workflow.
Sure, it’s nerdy. But so is wearing a computer on your face. Terminal Mode leans into what G2 already does well, surfacing just enough information to keep you moving, and applies it to code.
Terminal Mode fits into Even Realities’ push to make the G2 useful for more than basic notifications. The glasses recently added tools for meeting prep and running apps directly in front of the wearer’s eyes.
The nerdy stuff does not stop there
The v2.2.0 update also includes a few other additions. Conversate and Translate records can now be exported. Even AI now supports continuous conversations, so users no longer need to repeat a wake-up command during an ongoing interaction. Even Realities also mentions sleep algorithm improvements and better connection stability.
Terminal Mode may sound like a feature built for a very specific crowd, but for coders already using AI agents, it could become a useful second screen for quick updates, approvals, and progress checks. It is a niche feature for now, but it gives the Even G2 a clearer role in developer workflows beyond basic smart-glasses notifications.
