Could you build this?

No Building an unofficial hardware bridge requires reverse-engineering proprietary Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocols and RFCOMM/GATT characteristics on smart glasses.

What it would actually take: Requires capturing BLE packets between RayNeo smart glasses and official mobile apps via Wireshark and Bluetooth HCI snoop logs to decipher proprietary packet payloads and command opcodes. The bridge must be built in Swift or Python/CoreBluetooth exposing a local HTTP server (e.g., FastAPI or swift-nio) to translate webhooks into custom BLE telemetry/display commands.
