This is Alibaba’s first attempt to make smart glasses, and time is no coincidence. Local contestants such as Xreal and Rokid have already launched products, and global technical giants such as Meta are also in the mixture with their ray-ban smart glass. Instead of sitting on the edge, Alibaba is ready to compete by bending his own strength – AI models, software platforms, and existing services such as Alipay and Taobao. The company has already confirmed that Quark AI Chashma will use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon AR1 platform, especially the chip made for the promoted reality wearbals. Inside is also a second low-power processor, and glasses run on a dual operating system setup-endroid and a real-time operating system (RTO), which efficiently handles light and immediate tasks.

Alibaba is gradually expanding its AI appearance in the last one year. Back in February, it announced an investment of $ 53 billion in the AI infrastructure in three years. It reorganize internal teams to focus better on both AI model and real -world products. This involves the development of its own large language model under the Quven name, which provides strength to various characteristics in Quark, its AI auxiliary. Earlier this year, Alibaba converted Quark into a more versatile tool, developing it into an all-in-one assistant from a simple discovery and cloud storage app, what you would expect from Chatgpt or Google Gemini.

Earlier this year, the company’s partnership with AR Glass Maker Reneo also shows that it is thinking long -term. The deal included Alibaba’s AI Tools integrate in Reneo’s products, which laying groundwork for future cooperation or technical sharing.

In terms of features, Quark AI glasses are not just about futuristic viewing. You will be able to scan the QR code to pay through Alipay, pointing to glasses on items, identifying and identifying prices on Taobao (China’s largest online marketplace) and comparing them and using AMAP, Alibaba’s navigation app can get real time while walking or cycling. Glasses also include hands-free calling, live meeting transcription, music playback and a built-in camera.

The design of Quark AI glasses has also been replaced for comfort. According to the company, glasses weapons are 40 percent slimmer than the general industry standard, making them more practical for daily use. Frames are also light and all this technique is designed to prepare to look heavy.

As mentioned above, there is no official term on pricing or international availability yet. Stay for India Today Tech for all the latest at Quark AI glasses of Alibaba.
