Qualcomm Unveils Next-Gen Smart Glasses with AI-Powered Flexibility
Qualcomm has unveiled next-generation smart glasses, offering flexible configurations and AI capabilities that set a new standard for wearable technology. Powered by the Snapdragon AR1+ Gen 1 platform, these glasses promise a modular XR ecosystem with seamless AI interaction in daily scenarios.
The Snapdragon AR1+ Gen 1 processor, 26% smaller than its predecessors, improves power efficiency and image quality. This enables the running of small language models directly on the glasses, marking a significant breakthrough in wearable technology. During a demonstration, a compact language model provided audio guidance and text on lenses for a recipe during a simulated grocery trip, all without a phone or cloud connection.
Qualcomm is developing these smart glasses to be thin and powerful, with sophisticated camera features that record and perceive the world in rich detail. This allows for proactive suggestions and context-sensitive help, even without a connection to other devices. Furthermore, these glasses can be paired with other wearables like smartwatches or rings, enabling new forms of interaction and input.
Qualcomm's next-generation smart glasses, powered by the Snapdragon AR1+ Gen 1 platform, signal the start of a new era in wearable AI. These glasses offer tailored, real-time support on the go, with flexible configurations and AI capabilities that promise to enhance our daily lives.
