2026 AI Glasses Ecosystem Conference Opens in Shenzhen as Sector Moves to Payment and Enterprise Use Cases

On June 17, the 2026 AI Glasses Ecosystem Conference themed "Beyond the Light Path, Intelligence Beyond Sight" opened at the Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center, running alongside the 4th Shenzhen International Eyewear Expo. The event drew over 300 international procurement delegations and 80,000 eyewear retailers nationwide. Multiple major products debuted at the show, including Leqi's waveguide AI smart glasses, iFlytek's 40-gram ultra-light AI glasses, and Rokid's glasses with built-in Alipay "look-to-pay" functionality. Industry observers note that AI glasses are evolving from basic features like translation and photography toward high-value scenarios such as payments and enterprise applications. Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon recently stated that AI agents will become the new app entry point, with smart glasses already shipping tens of millions of units annually and expected to reach hundreds of millions in coming years — approaching the scale of smartphones.
