Solos, the creator of the AirGo3 smart glasses, has introduced a new live search feature. This AI-powered update lets users ask questions conversationally after activating the system with a tap. Unlike camera-equipped smart glasses like Ray-Ban Meta, the Solos AirGo3 focuses on audio and integrates its “smart” technology into the arms. This modular design allows users to switch faceplates and lenses for various activities—everyday use, sports, or casual wear—without sacrificing functionality.
Live Search with SolosChat and AI Integration
The Live Search update utilizes SolosChat, Solos’s proprietary software, and integrates with AI services like ChatGPT. This allows for natural language processing and contextual understanding, eliminating the need to rephrase questions. Solos suggests practical applications such as price checking and product information gathering while shopping, or using it as a tour guide in unfamiliar locations.

The Future of Smart Glasses
The integration of AI-powered features like live search represents a significant step forward in smart glasses technology. Solos’ focus on audio and modular design offers a compelling alternative to camera-based solutions, catering to users who prioritize seamless integration and versatile functionality.
