HONG KONG, Dec. 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The emergence of AI (artificial intelligence) has revolutionized the world and the way people live in —ways they could never have imagined before. Such changes have been taking place in the optical world as well, with Solos®, a smartglasses company spin-off from Nasdaq-listed Kopin Technology and based in Hong Kong's Science Park, developing state-of-the-art smartglasses with a human-first approach.

Recently, Solos Technology has teamed up and crossover with renowned cyclist Wong Kam-po and his new "The Wing's Cycle" shop. From his professional perspective, former world champion and veteran cycling coach Wong has provided Solos with a lot of valuable advice on their third generation sports smartglasses. Kenny Cheung, General Manager of Solos, noticed that as a result of the impact of the epidemic, the number of people who love sports has increased in Hong Kong.

His advice has helped us make the third-generation sports smartglasses more relevant to the market," said Cheung.

Wong Kam-po is now the spokesperson of Solos®. "Solos® AirGo3 launched recently at the grand opening of the new The Wing's Cycle. In addition to listening to music and answering calls, it also brings in a number of interactive technologies: WhatsApp voice alerts for specific contacts or groups, instant voice messaging, AI voice ChatGPT Assistant, answering and navigation functions. Solos® also offers a wide range of personalization options like a detachable USB-C SmartHinge ™ that can be fitted with more than 30 types of frames, myopia, anti-blue/UV, color changing, outdoor sunglasses, etc., as well as posture monitoring and sport-assisted functions that are suitable for running, cycling, hiking, etc.," said Wong.
