Snap to Launch Specs AR Glasses in 2026
Snap is launching new augmented reality glasses called Specs in 2026.
These glasses will be for regular people and let them see digital things overlaid on the real world.
They'll have cool features like an AI assistant and games.
Snap's CEO says they're focused on what phones can't do, such as AI help.
Specs will be an upgrade from previous glasses, which were designed for software developers.
The glasses will also use AI from OpenAI and Google to help people with things like translating text.
Snap is also very concerned about keeping user information safe.
Snap plans to launch its first consumer AR glasses, Specs, in 2026.
Specs will be a smaller and lighter version of the developer-focused Spectacles.
The glasses will run on Snap OS and be controlled using hand gestures.
The glasses will have an AI assistant, games, and a 'workstation' area.
Specs will integrate with AI models from OpenAI and Google.
