On October 27 local time, Singapore-based smart glasses manufacturer Brilliant Labs officially released its new-generation Halo AI glasses, priced at $399. The new product features a full-color Micro-OLED display, integrates a long-term memory AI assistant, and introduces an adaptive gaming experience called Narrative, with a focus on an open-source architecture, on-device AI processing, and privacy protection.
It is understood that Halo is equipped with Brilliant Labs' self-developed AI assistant Noa, which supports real-time voice interaction and long-term memory. Unlike traditional AI assistants that restart after each interaction, Noa can continuously retain the user's conversation context, preferences, and related information, and provide more personalized responses based on long-term usage habits.
In terms of functionality, Halo is mainly built around three experiences: Ask, Make, and Play. Among them, Ask supports natural language Q&A and continuous contextual interaction; Make allows users to describe their needs by voice, create small applications and custom workflows, and share the results to the Halo app store; Play, through the Narrative game system, transforms real-life activities into interactive gaming experiences.
Narrative is one of the key features of this Halo launch. According to the official introduction, the system can transform the real world into a continuously changing open-ended game environment, combining users' daily actions, choices, and exploration behaviors to adjust game content in real time, allowing different users to obtain personalized interactive experiences.
In terms of hardware, Halo is equipped with a full-color Micro-OLED display, microphone, bone conduction speaker, and optical-grade lenses, and supports Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity and on-device AI processing. The device weighs slightly more than 40 grams, and the official claim is up to 14 hours of battery life; it has also been optimized for wearing balance and comfort to meet the needs of long-term daily wear.
It is understood that Halo adopts an open software and hardware architecture centered on on-device processing, completing AI-related tasks locally on the device as much as possible to reduce dependence on cloud services. The device is equipped with a low-resolution image sensor that can provide environmental visual information to the AI, but it is not used as a traditional photo or video camera. Brilliant Labs states that the relevant images will be discarded immediately after processing on the device and will not be stored.
In addition, both the hardware and software of Halo adopt an open-source design, and the developer and user community can extend functionality and develop applications on top of the existing platform. Brilliant Labs states that through an open ecosystem, the company hopes to combine real-time conversation, long-term memory, and dynamic tool creation capabilities to explore more applications of AI glasses in entertainment, creation, and daily life.
Brilliant Labs CEO Bobak Tavangar said: "The future of smart wearables begins with trust. While focusing on protecting user privacy, Halo glasses hope to use artificial intelligence to enable people to interact with the world around them in a deeper and more engaging way."
