Mudra Link is a $499 EMG wristband that Xreal's Beam Pro reads as a Bluetooth mouse

Wearable Devices sells Mudra Link, a wristband that turns forearm gestures into input, for $499 on its own store, and it reaches smart glasses by presenting itself as an ordinary mouse. The company's October 13 press release, filed with the SEC as an exhibit, calls it a "universal electromyography ("EMG")-based neural wristband" that "connects to compatible devices through standard Bluetooth Human Interface Device" and gives "out-of-the-box pointing and directional-pad navigation using gestures such as tap, swipe, scroll, and more".

The list of what it pairs with is long. Wearable Devices names Xreal's Beam Pro, Viture's neckband, Rokid's Station 2 and INMO's AIR3 among the XR devices it works with, and the same list runs on through Windows PCs, macOS, iPhone and iPad, Android phones and tablets, smart TVs and streaming boxes. Only the AIR3 is a pair of glasses; the other three are the compute units that drive them.

Standard Bluetooth HID is the whole pitch

No Meta product appears anywhere on that list. Meta's Neural Band arrived in September 2025 as part of the $799 Meta Ray-Ban Display kit, which is where Meta supports it, and the projects that have driven anyone else's hardware with it, such as an unofficial tool that runs Rokid glasses from the Neural Band, got there by reverse engineering.

Setup still needs a desktop app, on Windows 10 or 11 or macOS 14 and later. After that, Wearable Devices says the device works without software and the app is only needed for customisation, which is what Bluetooth HID buys: a host that speaks mouse does not need a driver.

The band is small, and the new kit has no price

Mudra Link carries three of the company's SNC neural sensors and a six-axis motion sensor, runs up to eight hours of active use and charges fully in 80 minutes. It is 22mm wide and 10mm thick including the strap, weighs 36g, is rated IP56 and talks Bluetooth Low Energy.

The announcement itself is about software rather than the band. Wearable Devices says the Mudra Studio Evaluation Kit is "newly available" and that the software lets teams "build, test and customize neural-input applications using natural-language prompts", and that "together, the wristband and software let enterprises develop and evaluate input experiences tailored to their own applications and workflows within days". No price is published for the kit.

Chief marketing officer Shmuel Barel pitched it at industry rather than consumers: "Manufacturing, logistics and healthcare bring digital information into hands-on work, where interaction needs to fit real working conditions. Mudra gives their teams familiar, comfortable ways to use smart glasses within existing workflows." The release names work instructions, training and remote support as the applications, and it carries a forward-looking-statements caveat, so the adoption language is the company's own.

Wearable Devices is showing the kit at Booth #620 at the Augmented Enterprise Summit in Atlanta, which runs October 13 to 15. In September the company also won a Chinese patent allowance for measuring how hard you pinch, a method it had no shipping product for at the time.
