Insta360 may be working on a unique pair of AI-powered smart glasses
The glasses would use a separate body-worn battery and cable, according to a China report, as Insta360 expands beyond 360 cameras.
- According to reports, Insta360 is developing AI-powered smart glasses with an external battery connected via cable, designed to keep the headgear lightweight and wearable.
- Max Richter, Insta360 cofounder, aims to become a 'top imaging camera company,' challenging Canon, Sony, Nikon, and Fujifilm with devices that automatically capture and edit footage using built-in AI.
- While Insta360 leads the 360-camera market with 73 percent share, it is aggressively pushing into gimbaled and action cameras, recently opening its first flagship store in New York City's Times Square.
- Beyond smart glasses, founder JK Liu confirmed two mirrorless cameras are in development; the company distanced itself from drone brand Antigravity amid regulatory pressures, though Richter remains confident about compliance.
- The latest Insta360 camera features an onboard AI-powered model creating highlight reels and Gaussian splats, though spokesperson Caroline Chen noted cloud processing currently limits free access to four splats monthly.
