At the 16th Songshan Lake China IC Innovation Summit, SmartSens said the global AI glasses market is shifting from proof-of-concept to scale and could expand nearly fourfold by 2026, with China growing notably faster than the global average. SmartSens has launched several dedicated CMOS image sensors for AI glasses and moved them into mass production.

At the 16th Songshan Lake China IC Innovation Summit, SmartSens said the global AI glasses market is shifting from proof-of-concept to scale and could expand nearly fourfold by 2026, with China growing notably faster than the global average. SmartSens has launched several dedicated CMOS image sensors for AI glasses and moved them into mass production. Its second-generation SC1220IOT features an Always‑On low‑power mode down to 1 mW — over 20% lower power than comparable products — a package roughly 10% smaller than the prior generation, supports high‑frame‑rate video up to 12MP@60fps, and retains high dynamic range with low noise.
