"Snap has been working on smart glasses for a decade, with the first model of its camera-equipped Spectacles glasses launching in 2016. The consumer Specs won't be the first time Qualcomm and Snap have worked together, as Snapdragon chips have powered multiple previous generations of Spectacles."
"Through long-term strategic roadmap alignment and technical collaboration, both companies will work together to rapidly bring industry-leading capabilities to the Specs platform, including on-device AI, cutting-edge graphics, and advanced multiuser digital experiences."
Snap's consumer AR glasses are scheduled for release this year, utilizing Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR chip. Snap has been developing smart glasses since 2016, but previous AR models were not available to consumers. The collaboration with Qualcomm aims to enhance the Specs platform with advanced features like on-device AI and multiuser experiences. Snap's smart glasses team has been established as a separate company, with a long-term vision for the product. Other tech giants like Meta, Google, Samsung, and Apple are also pursuing AR glasses development.
