Chinese Auto OEM - Li Auto Launched Its First AI Smart Glasses at ¥1,999 CNY

On December 3rd, Chinese Auto OEM - Li Auto officially launched its first AI smart glasses, Livis, with a starting price of ¥1,999 CNY.

According to its official product information release, the Li Auto AI Glasses Livis weighs 36 grams and offers a battery life of 18.8 hours. It comes with a glasses case supporting wireless charging and a Type-C charging port. High-quality Zeiss lenses are standard across all product variants, and multiple versions are available, including presbyopic, photochromic, and sunglasses versions.

Li Auto AI Glasses Livis features two core functions: vehicle-human connectivity for vehicle control and intelligent photochromic lenses. Livis enables seamless linkage with vehicles. In driving scenarios, users can directly control in-vehicle functions through voice commands, and deep interactions such as independent audio channels will be supported in the future. Meanwhile, the device is equipped with AI assistant with multimodal understanding capabilities, boasting a response latency as low as 300 milliseconds, which can handle various tasks ranging from information query to schedule management.

In terms of imaging capabilities, Livis is equipped with a 12-megapixel first-person perspective camera that supports 0.7-second lightning-fast capture and ultra-wide-angle recording, allowing users to seize moments without interrupting their current activities. In terms of audio, it adopts open spatial audio technology, which has been specially tuned by the Li Auto Acoustics Laboratory to deliver an immersive auditory experience while ensuring privacy.

Notably, high-quality Zeiss lenses come as standard across all Livis variants, making it the first launched product following the global strategic cooperation between Li Auto and Zeiss. On December 2nd, Li Auto announced a strategic partnership with Zeiss, kicking off global technical and market cooperation. Li Auto stated that through this strategic cooperation with Zeiss, it will provide users with high-quality optical lens customization, making premium experiences accessible to all. The scope of cooperation will cover not only the domestic market but also the global market, with joint research and development on next-generation optical technology for smart glasses.

Obviously, Li Auto's goal is no longer just to build good cars, but to fully transform into an artificial intelligence terminal company and construct an ecosystem with artificial intelligence at its core. Industry insiders point out that the launch of Livis is not only a crucial move by Li Auto in the field of "embodied intelligence", but also represents that intelligent vehicle enterprises are systematically expanding their technological accumulation and ecological capabilities to broader personal wearable scenarios.
