We are on the verge of something great. 2024 is the year of the AI smartphone, with technology that until recently was science fiction delivering incredible things on phones you can actually buy. And the apps on your phone go to new places – and to a lot of faces. That’s because the AI revolution isn’t just going to change our phones. It will also be the power behind some fantastic augmented and mixed reality experiences.
Why AI is changing your phone
Last year something very big happened. AI went from science fiction to smartphone fact. Where smartphones previously competed on hardware features, AI is the most exciting smartphone technology today – and OPPO is driving the transition from smartphones to AI smartphones that will change everything through its AI Center, where it creates the next generation of AI apps and experiences .
Smartphones are quickly becoming the most important platform for AI, because of course we do so much of everything on smartphones. AI already allows us to make our photos better and our videos smoother, and the large language models that underpin today’s AI apps know more things, can understand us better, and communicate with us more effectively. They can answer even the most complicated questions, dig deep into the data of our apps, and they can help us create almost anything: if we can imagine it, we can describe it and our AI can generate it or help us create it. improve.
OPPO is at the forefront of smartphone AI and its AI Center is driving the transition from smartphones to AI smartphones. The incredible speed of its AI innovations means that a phone like the OPPO Find parameters and can respond immediately to any question. ask. And the AI Eraser feature can magically remove unwanted backgrounds, objects and even people from photos to get the perfect photo every time.
If we all have a genius like AndesGPT with us, everything will become even more amazing – and soon it will be running on great hardware too.
How to win the face race
We’ve seen some extraordinary virtual reality, mixed reality and augmented reality technology in recent months with devices from multiple manufacturers. But we’re only scratching the surface of what’s possible, and it won’t be long before today’s bulky and expensive headsets are succeeded by something that’s much sleeker, much smarter, and much better looking, too.
Before we talk about the technology, let’s talk about comfort. Some mixed reality headsets can weigh up to around 600 grams. That’s a lot of weight to hang on your head. But Assisted Reality glasses like the OPPO Air Glass 3 weigh a fraction of that: just 50 grams. That’s because they’re designed in a very different way, allowing OPPO to deliver an exceptional Assisted Reality experience in a pair of glasses that weigh less than a pair of designer sunglasses, let alone a typical AR/VR/XR headset.
The OPPO Air Glass 3 prototype is the world’s lightest binocular full-color Assisted Reality (aR) glasses despite being packed with advanced technology. And that is important, because no matter how smart the technology – and the technology in OPPO Air Glass 3 – is terribly smart – wearable technology should also be comfortable. And unlike other headsets, OPPO Air Glass 3 doesn’t look like you have a computer strapped to your head: it looks like normal glasses.
Those glasses are made of a very innovative design. To make this possible, OPPO has created a special resin waveguide with the highest possible refractive index and an optical diffraction waveguide to deliver incredible clarity without the ‘rainbow effect’ that can spoil some augmented reality experiences. And it’s designed to work with AndesGPT on the phone for the ultimate smart experience on the go: you do the talking and AndesGPT delivers exactly what you need for your OPPO Air Glass 3. In addition to its advanced features, OPPO Air Glass 3 performs effortlessly daily tasks such as phone calls and playing music, making it an indispensable companion for the on-the-go lifestyle.
Visualizing the future
One of the things that’s great about technology is that we can never predict all the amazing things it will help us do: so many of the things we now take for granted, from taking selfies to smart speakers, weren’t even a possible a few years ago. With generative AI, anyone has the opportunity to become a content creator or developer, creating the next wave of enriched applications. And the evolution of AI will fundamentally change the way we interact with our electronic devices, which will be transformed from ordinary phones to incredible AI smartphones.
We think that smartphones will no longer be indispensable as our most important daily device, but that we will increasingly communicate with them in new ways. Leveraging AI capabilities through smartphones, aR glasses will be able to identify people, objects and locations, giving us AI-based insights, recommendations and feedback to improve our daily experiences. It’s going to change our work lives and also our personal lives because computing is not something that happens in an app. It’s in your eyes and in your ears, and in response to what you see and say.
Right now, OPPO is at the forefront of this technological revolution and its goal is to democratize AI for everyone, everywhere. And the AI Center is at the heart of that mission. It’s where OPPO is working to improve what AI can do, and later this year OPPO will introduce a range of generative AI improvements, including the innovative OPPO AI Eraser, which will be included in the Reno 11 series. And that’s just the beginning. The relentless innovation of the OPPO AI Center will bring even more exciting AI functionalities to future generations of OPPO smartphones, enriching user experiences and making incredible things happen.
