Liang Guan (interview): “This is the Rokid glasses. This is the world’s first all feature, all in one, AI AR glasses, so currently you can see there’s a lot of AI glasses or AR glasses on the market, but they either have no display or they have no camera, so Rokid is the first all in one really light weight AI and AR glasses.”

Liang Guan (interview): “There’s many YouTubers, there’s many TikTokers, so sometimes if you need to take different pictures or video, so with the glasses, it’s very easy to take like the first person to view video. So I would say the YouTuber or the TikToker, they are the first target audience. The second one is the world traveller or the business people. For example, I travel to Europe, I travel to the U.S., I travel to many smaller countries. I speak Chinese, I speak English I speak a little bit of German, but not much and I cannot understand everybody right but with this glass I will be able to talk to everybody and talk to also the local people, you know for many many different companies (communities) as well.”

Gemma Briggs (interview): “There’s a really famous study where people walking along, completing a task on their phone didn’t notice a unicycling clown riding in front of them. So this is the same premise. It’s inattentional blindness, but it’s the high stakes situation. So driving is dynamic. It’s fast paced.”

Gemma Briggs (interview): “My research has demonstrated that it really doesn’t make any difference whether you’re touching, holding, manipulating your phone, or whether it’s a hands free conversation or phone use. You’re still far more likely to be distracted. And that means you’re four times more likely to be involved in a collision.”
