The AI-powered Smart Glasses weigh just 45 grams and come equipped with a 16MP ultra-wide-angle camera featuring AI stabilization for smooth and steady shots. They offer an impressive standby time of up to 56 hours and support over 5 hours of continuous audio playback, with a rapid full charge in only 30 minutes. For audio, the glasses utilize a four-microphone array to capture sound effectively, while open-ear anti-leakage speakers deliver clear audio for an immersive, hands-free experience.

The Xiaodu AI Glasses are scheduled to launch in the first half of next year, with a projected price of under 2,100 yuan (approximately $290). This release marks a significant step forward in integrating AI with wearable technology, as Baidu aims to redefine the user experience with advanced, accessible AI applications.
