LAS VEGAS, Jan. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- RayNeo™, an industry leader in consumer-grade augmented reality (AR) innovation, has demonstrated its ultralight RayNeo X2 Lite AR Glasses for the first time at CES 2024. First introduced at the Qualcomm Snapdragon Summit 2023, these intuitive full-color 3D AR glasses deliver powerful AI capabilities in an incredibly lightweight and sleek design, weighing at just around 60 grams (2.1 ounces).

"We believe AR glasses are the optimal wearable gadget to bring AI to life," said Howie Li, Founder and CEO of RayNeo. "To embrace that future, the RayNeo X2 Lite seamlessly fuses the power of AI and AR. Its cohort of incredible AR experiences, such as its 3D avatar AI assistant that appears right before your eyes, epitomizes how we can harness the power large language models to strengthen the connection with the people and world around us."

RayNeo X2 Lite: Next-gen Ultralight 3D AR Glasses 

The RayNeo X2 Lite is the world's first full-color 3D display glasses with the Snapdragon® AR1 Gen 1 Platform. Weighing only around 60 grams, the RayNeo X2 Lite also stands as one of the lightest mass-producible full-color AR glasses in the industry.

These standalone AR glasses leverage MicroLED optical waveguide display technology to deliver vibrant 3D visuals on their slim, transparent lenses, offering an impressive 30° field of view. Users can effortlessly check notifications and application alerts through the highly transmitting lenses.

These stunning visuals are made possible by a pair of one of the most compact full-color AR glasses projectors in either side of the frame. With an industry-leading to-eye brightness of up to 1,500 nits, the glasses adapt to various lighting conditions, and can be comfortably used even in harsh sunlight.

Powered by Snapdragon's latest AR1 Gen 1 Platform, the RayNeo X2 Lite is equipped with robust AI capabilities to fulfill its role as a versatile daily assistant. A smart AI-powered 3D avatar can instantly answer everyday inquiries in audio and in text. Furthermore, the RayNeo X2 Lite supports AI-powered real-time translation, live captions and accurate 3D mapping navigation assistance. Coming with a high definition 12MP camera, the RayNeo X2 Lite unlocks hands-free first-person perspective capture, inviting the audience to relive the journey.

These stunning visual experiences are enriched by immersive audio. The RayNeo X2 Lite features triple microphones to support voice commands through digital assistants and crystal-clear voice calls. And thanks to RayNeo's "Whisper Mode" anti-sound leakage technology, the glasses' high-fidelity speakers only direct sound to the wearer to protect user privacy.

RayNeo X2: Unveiling a Global Crowdfunding Journey

At CES 2024, RayNeo has also announced the pre-launch of its highly anticipated RayNeo X2, the world's first binocular full-color MicroLED optical waveguide AR glasses. The RayNeo X2 is slated to launch globally on Indiegogo in February 2024.

The RayNeo X2 AR glasses deliver next-gen AR experiences by leveraging its pioneering binocular full-color MicroLED head-up displays and robust spatial computing capabilities. The adaptive brightness display reaches an exceptional to-eye brightness of 1,500 nits, ensuring every message can be comfortably viewed even outdoors. Powered by the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 1 Platform, the glasses serve as a powerful all-in-one AR assistant, boasting navigation with simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), face-tracking live translation as well as on-glass AR gaming. Users can easily interact with the AR glasses using voice commands, the touch pad on the frame or a discreet control ring supporting 3 Degrees of Freedom (DoF) tracking.

The RayNeo X2 has achieved remarkable success since its commercial debut in China in November 2023, selling out within one hour and receiving 98% positive feedback from customers during the product launch period.
