AI Wearables dedicated zone, focusing on the latest news, in-depth reviews, technical principles and industry trends of AI smart wearable devices. It covers smart watches, AI glasses, smart earbuds, health monitoring wearables and other full-category content.
One-sentence verdict: If offline translation and visual translation deliver as promised, these glasses could land on every business traveler’s 2026 packing list—especially at the subsidized $470 price point.
Most “AI earbuds” are dumb pipes. They capture audio, send it to your phone, and relay the response. The Haitohome AI Earbuds break this dependency. A built-in 4G eSIM enables standalone network connectivity. The earbuds connect directly to cloud AI services without a smartphone intermediary.
Amit Khatri co-founded Noise, the Indian wearable brand that shipped over 45 million units and became the country’s top smartwatch maker. He left to build Luna, a health intelligence company with a fundamentally different premise: most wearables show you what happened yesterday. Luna tells you what to do next.
On June 6, Jiangsu Wurun Chuanlian released a very special AI hardware product—the Fanyin AI Smart Earbuds. Not targeting consumers, not emphasizing audio quality, not competing on noise cancellation depth, but specifically designed for truck drivers: voice-driven cargo finding, order acceptance, navigation, fueling, and waybill inquiry. Simply put, it is an “ear assistant” for China’s 30 million truck drivers, letting them work by talking without looking at their phones or tapping apps while driving.
On June 3, an obscure Chinese startup named Monako dropped a bombshell: Monako Glass, the world’s first wearable Linux computer in glasses form. Not an AI assistant hanging on your glasses—the glasses themselves are a complete computer. MonoOS system, Lua application layer, Claude Code and OpenAI Codex running locally. Forty-eight grams, $399, $19 reservation.
In 2019, Valve Index burst onto the scene with its 144Hz refresh rate and Index controllers’ “finger tracking,” becoming the ceiling of PC VR at the time. Then Valve disappeared—no new VR hardware for six years, watching Meta Quest evolve from a 3DoF toy to the Quest 3 mixed reality flagship. Until November 12, 2025, when Valve suddenly dropped three bombs: Steam Machine console, Steam Controller, and Steam Frame VR headset. Early 2026 launch, pricing unannounced, but estimated at $499-599 for 256GB and $699-799 for 1TB.
On June 5, Kannan Tech released the K2 smart glasses in Hangzhou. Twenty-five point eight grams total weight, 7.1mm temple thickness at the thinnest point, European-imported ultra-light nylon material—these three numbers alone tell me this company is not playing with concepts but with materials science. Priced at 2350 yuan, with a 32MP camera, 4K 30FPS recording, EIS plus AI dual stabilization, and Kiro OS built specifically for AI glasses.
Recently an interesting player emerged in the eldercare track: YuanSheng Intelligence.

This team just secured over 10 million yuan in Pre-A funding, generates nearly one million yuan monthly revenue, and exports products overseas.
