Google released smart glasses on May 19, marking a milestone in the accelerating AI eyewear industry. The sector is transitioning from proof-of-concept to consumer-scale production, with recent product announcements arriving in rapid succession. Aijiian Securities projects 2026 as the industry development year, with Apple's AI glasses entry expected to drive upstream hardware components toward high-speed growth. As a next-generation smart wearable interface, AI glasses' core requirements of lightweight design and AI interaction will benefit key supply chain segments including SoC chips, optical modules, photonic waveguides, and SiC materials.
