History
Wondour (/ˈwʌndɚ/) was founded in 2015 by designer Dylan Stroud and businessman Taylor Speegle.
Products
In July 2016, Dylan and Taylor found their first commercial app success with the launch of Pokegear GO.[1], which served as a companion app to the fastest mobile app in history to hit $500 million in revenue Pokémon Go[2]. The app, launched alongside business partner Travis Morgan, was featured on Apple's "Trending Searches" in the App Store.
In 2020, Wondour and partner company Global Platform Solutions, LLC, reached an agreement with Chinese multinational electronics company TCL Technology to exclusively sell and distribute TCL's newly developed wearable display glasses[3] in select global markets under the moniker Moled G[4]. The first mobile application to be made compatible with the wearable display glasses was VRLU[5], developed by Wondour's sister company MAKERMONSTER.
In 2021, Wondour began design and development of VISIONAID, a pair of electronic glasses for the visually impaired. The patent-pending device is based on emerging medical research which leverages two digital image processing strategies for head-mounted magnification for low vision patients[6]. Early indications suggest material visual improvement for users with macular degeneration, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy.
