2024: Product Announcement

On February 27, 2024, the Chinese company Oppo announced Air Glass 3 augmented reality glasses with generative artificial intelligence functions. Users will be able to interact with a voice assistant based on the AndesGPT fast neural network.

Communication with the AI assistant is carried out through a smartphone: to activate this function, just click on a special touch pad on the arm of the gadget.

Users can control music playback, view images, accept or reject phone calls, and perform other activities.
