As artificial intelligence and spatial computing enter a new era, Taiwan’s technological prowess is shining on the global stage once again. Led by Wen-Long Liang, widely recognized as the “Godfather of Taiwan’s Smart Glasses,” a top-tier local R&D team officially unveiled the world’s smallest AI smart glasses today, featuring cutting-edge “eye-tracking” technology. Backed by 28 years of deep expertise in chip miniaturization and packaging, this groundbreaking device turns the human eye into a precise cursor and has successfully attracted significant strategic investment from Foxconn Technology Group. Amidst strong demand from European and American markets for a “non-red supply chain,” Taiwan is perfectly positioned to take the lead in this trillion-dollar smart wearable battleground.

Your Eye is the Mouse: Ultimate Spatial Computing Meets AI Real-Time Translation
Breaking the control limitations of traditional wearable devices, these new AI smart glasses bring sci-fi movie concepts to life. Built with two high-precision sensors, the glasses accurately capture eye movement trajectories to calculate the line of sight, effectively upgrading the eye into a computer mouse. Users simply need to look at physical objects (such as a beverage or merchandise), and the built-in AI will instantly recognize their intent, displaying key information like prices and expiration dates directly on the smart lenses.
Furthermore, the smart glasses feature a “real-time multi-language translation” function, enabling seamless cross-border communication without delay. Paired with an exclusive “smart ring,” users can effortlessly navigate the glasses’ interface using subtle, highly discreet micro-movements (like clicking or swiping), realizing a truly frictionless smart living experience.
28 Years of Tech Refinement: From the First-Gen Google Glass to Asia’s First
The foundation of this globally stunning core technology lies in the team’s 28 years of relentless R&D accumulation. In the early days of his entrepreneurial journey, founder Wen-Long Liang focused on the lightweight and power-saving design of communication modules, successfully shrinking bulky internet cards to the “size of a fingernail.” This solid hardware capability allowed the team to participate in the critical chip R&D for the first-generation Google Glass back in 2013. Over the years, they have shipped tens of millions of modules, earning immense recognition from global tech giants.
To perfect eye-tracking technology—making it precise, compact, and energy-efficient—the team spent three years meticulously tuning algorithms and integrating hardware and software. They previously pioneered Asia’s first AR device with eye-tracking capabilities in 2022, maintaining a strong global leadership position in the golden race of smart glasses.
Riding the “Non-Red Supply Chain” Wave: A Powerful Alliance with Foxconn
As AI glasses become the new “gold mine” for global tech behemoths, only a handful of manufacturers worldwide possess such sophisticated R&D capabilities. Taiwan’s unyielding drive for innovation has not only attracted partnerships from global tech leaders but has also won the favor of Foxconn, the world’s largest contract electronics manufacturer, which has injected substantial capital into the company.
Looking ahead, driven by the clear demand for a “non-red supply chain” in Western markets, this self-developed AI eye-tracking technology from Taiwan is set to become the core engine for major brands entering the metaverse and AI wearable markets. The Taiwanese supply chain has not only successfully secured its strategic position but is also ready to power this massive trillion-dollar economic wave.
