Anhui-based Iflytek Co., Ltd launched its new AI glasses at BEYOND Expo 2026 yesterday at Cotai Expo at The Venetian Macao, announcing that pre-orders will open on June 15.
According to Lin Huijie, general manager of the company’s Consumer Business Wearables Division, because glasses are a natural point of entry to the human body and AI serves as an “awakened brain”, the combination allows the device to become the user’s “second brain” and a “super AI assistant right before their eyes”.
In order to achieve comfortable all-day wear, iFLYTEK has reduced the weight of the glasses to just 40 grams – about 20 per cent lighter than similar products – and they have passed a 1.70-metre drop test, Lin said.
In terms of AI capabilities, the glasses support real-time translation of 122 languages across four main modes: simultaneous interpretation, face-to-face translation, online synchronous translation, and call translation. The glasses’ “lip-motion recognition noise reduction” technology uses a front-facing camera to capture lip movements, allowing the device to accurately lock onto the speaker’s voice even in noisy environments, Lin added.
An AI assistant paired with the glasses, GlassClaw, is capable of independently carrying out complex tasks such as gathering information, generating plans, and sending emails. The smart prompting function can scroll through a script in sync with the user’s speaking speed, and the glasses also come with a physical remote control, according to Lin.
The glasses are priced at 4,299 yuan (5,125 patacas) for the standard model and 4,699 yuan for the extended-battery model.
