Founded in 2015, the smart glasses manufacturer P&C Solution has ambitious plans for growth in the AR/XR sector with new smart glasses.
A Korean manufacturer that specializes in augmented reality (AR) and extended reality (XR) technology, P&C Solution is a small-to-medium-sized enterprise with a clear mission statement.
“At P&C Solution, 'P&C' stands for 'positive' and 'creative,’” President Choi Chi Won explains in an interview with The Worldfolio. “We want this name to be a reflection of our company: a gathering of positive and creative individuals who are actively shaping the digital world through technological innovation.”
P&C Solution’s flagship product is its Metalense smart glasses, which draw on optical technology developed by the company to offer the brightest and clearest display among AR/XR glasses worldwide.

Metalense’s opening model won an Innovation Award at the prestigious Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in 2023—and has now been followed by a new iteration. Unveiled this year, Metalense 2 offers improvements such as enhanced outdoor visibility, extended battery life and greater comfort for the wearer.
P&C Solution’s glasses have applications in a wide range of industries. “In the medical field, for example, they’re used for dental implant surgery,” Mr. Choi says. “They can calculate the 3D space or gap between the drill tip and dental nerves. This aids dentists in performing safer surgeries.”
The firm also boasts a growing portfolio of defense clients. “Following our recognition at CES, a U.S.-based company reached out to us, expressing the need for our glasses in repairing U.S. Air Force aircraft,” Mr. Choi reveals. “For instance, an individual wearing the glasses can identify a bolt that isn’t securely fastened in an aircraft.”
Along with Europe, North America is a major focus of P&C Solution’s efforts to strengthen its global presence. As part of this drive, the manufacturer has partnered with the U.S. tech giant Qualcomm, which provides the central processing unit in Metalense glasses.
“Collaborating with renowned international brands allows us to prove ourselves, gain validation and raise our brand awareness,” Mr. Choi says. “Despite being a small company, we have immense potential to produce outstanding products. Through collaborative efforts with the U.S., I’m confident we can unleash our full potential.”
For Mr. Choi, the goal is international market domination: “My hope is that in five years’ time, we’ll have developed top-tier glasses surpassing the standards set by Meta and Apple. I aspire for P&C Solution to emerge as the global leader.”
