  • Oppo has announced its new “assisted reality” glasses at Inno Day 2021.
  • The wearable called Oppo Air Glass provides heads-up readouts of real-time information to users.
  • The Air Glass will debut in China first in early 2022.

Daily wear augmented reality (AR) glasses haven’t really taken off. Arguably, Google Glass scared both consumers and companies away from wearing and developing devices in this field well before the technology could mature. However, Oppo hopes to challenge this perception with its Air Glass, its new “assisted reality” glasses.

The company’s no stranger to AR glasses, having showcased the original bulky AR Glass in 2019 and a more portable, upgraded version a year later. While these two examples focused on immersive content experiences first, Oppo claims the Air Glass is a different concept altogether, offering wearers relevant, real-time data on the fly. Think readouts of your daily agenda, shopping list, turn-by-turn navigation support, real-time health data, live transcriptions, or current weather conditions.
