Rokid officially unveiled its much-anticipated Rokid Glasses<\/a> at a private launch in New York City, drawing around 100 representatives from top media, influencers, and the technology community. Positioned as the world\u2019s lightest full-function AI & AR smart glasses at just 49 grams, the device blends productivity and accessibility with real-world practicality.<\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/p>\n

The event, themed \u201cFuture in Sight,\u201d centered on how AI glasses are reshaping communication, creativity, and human-computer interaction. Attendees tested features including real-time multilingual translation, object recognition, live transcription, productivity tools, AI-powered teleprompter functions, and a 12MP first-person camera.<\/p>\n

The expert panel, \u201cFrom Mobile to Wearable: The Rise of AI Glasses,\u201d featured CNN technology journalist Andrea Smith, NYU Professor Vasant Dhar, Columbia University\u2019s Dr. Orson Xu, and Memories AI founder Dr. Shawn Shen. The discussion explored the challenges and opportunities in moving beyond smartphones, from healthcare applications and industry adoption to privacy, trust, and accessibility.<\/p>\n

The program also included a podcast session, \u201cAI Glasses for Social Good,\u201d where Rokid\u2019s Head of Global Partnership Development, Liang Guan, spoke with executives from CaringKind, New York City\u2019s leading dementia caregiving organization. Together, they explored how AI-powered wearables could support caregivers and enhance daily life for individuals affected by Alzheimer\u2019s and dementia.<\/p>\n

The launch also served as the starting point for Rokid\u2019s \u201cDream Journey\u201d World Tour, a global campaign designed to engage creators worldwide. Early momentum has been strong, with Rokid Glasses reaching $400,000 in just 8 hours on Kickstarter<\/a>.<\/p>\n
