Taiwan-based HTC has launched wearable AI glasses, the VIVE Eagle. The glasses integrate music playback, voice assistance, smart photography and videography, and photo-based translation, internet searches and interactions.

Weighing under 49 grams, the frame houses AI computing and voice interaction capabilities. ZEISS sun lenses provide UV protection without compromising optical clarity or visual comfort.

VIVE Eagle is equipped with a 12MP ultra-wide camera and HTC’s proprietary VIVE AI voice assistant. The glasses support leading AI platforms including OpenAI GPT and Google Gemini. They also allow users to record reminders, take notes, and search the internet via voice interaction alone.

The glass feature AI-powered translation in 13 languages. They are designed to remove language barriers in everyday encounters. Supported languages comprise Arabic, Traditional Chinese, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish, Korean, Thai and Turkish.

VIVE Eagle combines large acoustic drivers and virtual bass enhancement. The no-earplug design means there’s no ear canal pressure, allowing all-day wear. Even in outdoor environments, users can clearly hear music or voice prompts without worrying about others overhearing. The design also allows them to remain aware of their surroundings.

Powered by a 235mAh battery, VIVE Eagle has up to 36 hours of standby time, and delivers around 4.5 hours of continuous music playback. The device supports magnetic fast charging – a 10-minute charge provides up to 50% power, ensuring users stay connected on the go whether using a power bank or phone.

Charles Huang, Senior Vice President of HTC, said, “VIVE Eagle represents HTC’s newest exploration in the realm of intelligent living and personal wearables. By combining our pursuit of design excellence with expertise in immersive user experiences, this product is more than just a pair of glasses – it’s a way to live life with greater freedom. We believe technology should empower self-expression and deepen human connection. VIVE Eagle is a testament to our commitment to creating smart technology that fits naturally into everyday life.”
