Myofree tablet pairs special glasses with image processing for eye comfort

What the Myofree is

Kyodo, a Japanese manufacturer, plans to fund the Myofree tablet through the Japanese crowdfunding site Makuake. Presales open on 18 November, according to a company announcement on 13 November 2026 reported by Notebookcheck. The device was previously shown at CEATEC 2026, a major Japanese technology trade fair.

The tablet has a 15.6-inch Full HD display and runs Android 16. Kyodo positions it as a screen designed to reduce visual discomfort during long viewing sessions.

How the eye-care technology works

The unusual part of the design is a combination of image processing and dedicated glasses. The system sends separate images to each eye, which Kyodo calls parallel vision. Users wear circularly polarised glasses to see these images correctly.

According to Kyodo, someone watching from about 40 cm away would keep their eyes aligned as if looking at an object roughly 5 metres distant. The company suggests this could lessen the strain that comes from prolonged close-up screen use.

Three styles of glasses are planned: standard frames, clip-on lenses for people who already wear spectacles, and smaller frames for children.

Connectivity and everyday use

Beyond the eye-care features, the Myofree works as a conventional Android tablet. It supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and USB-C, and offers HDMI input and output for connecting to other equipment.

That makes it suitable for common tasks such as streaming video or light productivity work, assuming the crowdfunding campaign reaches its target and the product ships as described.

Important caveats for buyers

Kyodo notes that the Myofree is not a medical device, and there is no independent evidence that it improves eye comfort. Any claimed benefits rest on the manufacturer's own explanation of the technology.

The final retail price and any availability outside Japan are not yet confirmed. Early supporters will receive promotional pricing, but prospective buyers should treat the eye-care claims as unverified until third-party testing exists. Readers who experience persistent eye strain should consult an eye-care professional rather than rely on consumer gadgets.
