Short facts about Neaion, Lychnos Ring and Alkyon, written to be quoted, with what is decided and what is not.
In one paragraph
Neaion is developing Lychnos Ring, an AI ring you talk to. It has its own eSIM, a see-through screen and a small speaker, so after set-up it can answer without the phone. Alkyon is a concept for a small flying companion robot for the home. Both are being developed by Rawly OÜ in Tallinn, Estonia, for Europe first.
