In many outdoor activities, light is rarely consistent. Whether you are on a ski slope or a golf course, the weather changes. Usually, that means carrying multiple pairs of lenses or struggling with the wrong tint. At CES 2026 , Chamelo is addressing this frustration by expanding its electronic tint-changing technology into new categories like winter sports and daily wellness.
The brand is moving beyond just “cool tech” and focusing on practical applications for athletes and people who spend a lot of time in front of screens.
Chamelo Aroza tint-changing ski goggles
The most significant addition for the winter season is Aroza, Chamelo’s first pair of snow goggles. Most skiers are familiar with the “flat light” problem, where a sudden cloud makes it impossible to see the terrain. Instead of making you swap physical lenses in the cold, the Aroza goggles use a spherical lens that changes its tint electronically.
Users can cycle through three different light transmission levels. With a simple control, they can switch between 45%, 28%, and 13%. These goggles are built for serious conditions, rated to function in temperatures as low as –30°C. Plus, they provide about 50 hours of tint adjustment on a single charge. It is a straightforward solution for a sport where visibility directly affects safety.
Chamelo by O lens takes care of circadian rhythms
Away from the slopes, Chamelo is collaborating with actor Omari Hardwick to introduce the by O lens. This isn’t just about fashion, as it is designed for people who track their circadian rhythms.
Many “biohackers” use different colored glasses throughout the day to manage blue light exposure. The lens tone includes clear during the day, yellow in the evening, and red before bed. The by O lens consolidates this into one frame. It features four distinct states, ranging from 55% to 95% blue-light blocking. The idea is to help maintain alertness during work hours and then transition into a “sleep mode” that protects melatonin production in the evening. It is a more subtle, integrated approach to wellness eyewear that doesn’t look like medical equipment.
Chamelo Golf Shield and Music Shield
Chamelo also highlighted several products currently available for specific hobbies. The Golf Shield ($229) is a specialized wraparound frame. It aims to help golfers read the greens by adjusting contrast and tint on the fly.
The Music Shield ($249) has open-ear audio speakers and lenses that can be adjusted to different colors. It’s great for runners and cyclists. This lets athletes listen to music or talk on the phone while still being aware of what’s going on around them, like cars coming up or other people using the trail. It’s a “two-in-one” device that cuts down on the amount of gear you need to bring with you to the gym.
Chamelo Zurix
Lastly, expansion continues into the lifestyle space with frames like the Zurix ($199). This model hides all its electronics within a sleek, oversized frame. It offers four tint levels and 60 hours of battery life, making it a practical option for everyday wear. For those looking for more expression, the Aura platform allows the lenses themselves to change colors—not just tint—at the tap of a finger.
