ViXion01 Autofocus Eyewear, Verified: ¥425M From 5,703 Backers (Landmark Success)
Conclusion: ViXion01's autofocus eyewear raised ¥425.19M from 5,703 backers (8,504% funded) on kibidango — a verified 2023 landmark, now shipped.
Why it was hot
ViXion's autofocus eyewear “ViXion01” uses sensors to read what you're looking at and instantly reshape its lenses, adjusting focus for both near and far. On kibidango (plus GREEN FUNDING) it took ¥425,191,377 from 5,703 backers against a ¥5M goal (8,504%) — a landmark success (Jun 29 – Aug 24, 2023).
What moved people
A clear new technology aimed at a universal problem (presbyopia / focusing). A successor, “ViXion01S,” followed and earned recognition at IFA 2024.
Editor's note (as a success story)
Proof that even a gadget scales enormously with a legible problem-solution and a real working demo. kibidango is a curated platform that cites an ~80% success rate. This project has ended.
