Alibaba introduced Quark AI smart glasses with Snapdragon AR1 chip

Chinese tech giant Alibaba introduced its first model of Quark AI smart glasses at the World Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Shanghai.

According to Song Gang, head of intelligent terminals at Alibaba, developers focused on solving 3 key problems of modern smart glasses. Unsatisfactory user experience, weak autonomy and limited AI functionality.

Technically, Quark AI is impressive. It’s based on the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon AR1 chip. And the device runs on 2 operating systems — Android and Real-Time Operating System. The glasses design stands out from competitors. The temples are 40% thinner than industry standards, making them more elegant and comfortable for everyday use.

A special advantage of Quark AI is deep integration with the Alibaba ecosystem. Users will be able to make payments through Alipay by simply scanning QR codes, check product prices on Taobao and use navigation services during walks or bike rides.

The glasses themselves are interesting, but tailored only for Asian services and markets. Too bad.
