Qualcomm Technologies and Specs Inc. have formed a multi-year strategic agreement to equip future generations of Specs eyewear with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon system-on-a-chip (SoC).

The Specs eyewear line of products are standalone, see-through glasses designed to overlay digital experiences onto the user’s physical view. And through Qualcomm’s Snapdragon XR platform, upcoming models are equipped with edge AI and low-power compute to enable intelligent, context-aware experiences that run directly on the device. This approach allows for faster and more private interactions within the real world.

The collaboration builds on a decade-long relationship, as Snapdragon platforms previously powered earlier versions of Snap’s Spectacles. Moving forward, the companies plan to align roadmaps to rapidly integrate advanced capabilities into the Specs platform, including on-device AI, advanced graphics, and multiuser digital experiences.

Consumers will be able to see upcoming Specs products launched within selected markets this year.
