The Genesis
Between two games of Call of Duty or Dragon Ball Tenkaïchi but especially constantly in front of a screen in their job...
Paul, Stéphane and Matthieu have been constantly exposed to "digital eye strain" (impact on sleep, fatigue, discomfort, consequence on well-being) for more than 10 years.
The problem
At the time, they looked for a solution, and quickly found some horrors...
Unfortunately, in these dark times, getting screen glasses was like giving up on your social life and becoming a low-cost Bono look-alike.
The existing glasses were expensive, not certified, anything but modern, with ineffective filtration and a style to decorate the goats.
One fine morning in 2016, the 3 friends then took matters into their own hands.
The team's objective
Design sexy, affordable glasses that preserve the well-being of gamers and digital professionals,
while improving their performance.
The birth of the brand
With Matthieu's expertise in optical technologies, they decided to create an involved brand, with an authentic link with its customers, a full remote team, and a way of working that goes against the grain of traditional companies.
A passion for gaming, optics, and entrepreneurship were combined to create Horus X.
The first glasses
The small team works for many months on innovative technologies and brand new designs.
They struggle and hit quite a few walls, but they end up designing a first version of Horus X glasses in late 2017 that they are happy with...😬
The success is then immediate, confirming to the 3 friends that they were not alone in facing this problem!
The evolution
Since then, the products have evolved...
Investments in R&D, support from innovation partners such as BPI France, development of proprietary technologies and new models.
Now Horus X is one of the galaxy's most successful leaders in eye protection 😍!
(conquest of the universe planned for 2030 🚀)
