Samsung's first smart glasses, called Intelligent Eyewear, went on pre-order in the US and South Korea yesterday. To mark this milestone, the South Korean firm revealed a lot more information about its glasses. It revealed that certain functions can be controlled using Galaxy Watches.

Besides taps, swipes, and voice commands, Intelligent Eyewear can also be controlled using wearables. For example, when paired with a Galaxy phone, simple gestures on a Galaxy Watch (Wear OS 7.0 or above) can be used to answer calls or interact with Gemini on the glasses. More features could be revealed later.

Samsung noted on its website that the Galaxy Watch must have the Glasses Controller app installed for these gestures to work.

However, these gestures are not limited to Galaxy Watches. Google's Pixel Watches and the Fitbit Air also support gestures to control Intelligent Eyewear when paired with a compatible Pixel smartphone.

Using pinch gestures and wrist movements, users can control actions like music playback. However, it isn't clear if the Pixel Watch requires an additional app for those gestures to work.

Galaxy Buds will also integrate with Intelligent Eyewear, but it isn't clear what this integration is. We expect the smart glasses to automatically pair with a user's Galaxy Buds and play music through those wireless earbuds.
