00:10إنها ممتازة
00:11مراتك ومحباً إلى مناسبة
00:13في هذا القناة نحن في الأساسي

00:22Yang Zhao went to one of the largest electronics markets in the world here in Shenzhen.
00:28Yang, over to you.
00:35More than half of the world's AI glasses are made here in China.
00:39And if you want to see how fast China reacts to this new piece of tech,
00:43this is a pretty good place to start.
00:51Every day, thousands of visitors come to Huaqiangbei to try out AI glasses.
00:56Juanita was one of them, although buying a pair wasn't part of her plan.
01:01I've really struggled without an interpreter here in China,
01:06and someone had suggested I look at the new smart glasses, AI glasses.
01:10That could actually do the translation in real time.
01:13We can speak in our own language, and to see if this interview could go on.
01:18Excellent.
01:18Okay, let's try this.
01:20Let's try this.
01:22We can speak our own words in our own language. It's amazing.
01:32But many people worried about privacy.
01:34The more AI glasses look like ordinary glasses,
01:38the harder it is for people nearby to know when they are in use.
01:42There has been a lot within the local news about breaches of privacy,
01:47where you should or shouldn't be able to use them.
01:49It's more for the recording function.
01:52Smart glasses aren't new.
01:54For more than a decade, companies have been trying to make them smaller,
01:58lighter, and easier to wear.
02:00But making glasses wearable wasn't enough.
02:03AI has given them something more important.
02:06A reason to wear them.
02:10These things bring in more function to the eyeglasses.
02:14Okay, not only taking a video, listen to the music,
02:18but help you to solve the day-to-day problem.
02:24So AI glasses are ready to become part of a daily life here,
02:28and a manufacturer's hope they could replace a smartphone some days in the future.
02:32But for someone, that could also mean much more than convenience.
02:37Janis?
02:38Yes, indeed, Yang Zhao.
02:40We often see AI glasses as just another gadget,
02:43something you would use for work or for entertainment.
02:47But for some people, people with impaired vision or hearing,
02:51this technology can be life-changing.
02:53Let's meet someone who is testing that here in Shenzhen.
02:57Let's go.
03:03This is Liu Shenzhen.
03:05She comes from eastern China.
03:07When she was three, she lost her hearing due to a high fever.
03:11Today, her work is to help other people with disabilities find a job.
03:15But in a fast-paced city like Shenzhen, communication can be difficult.
03:23If there's an obstacle, I would use an app on my smartphone for voice transcription.
03:29Or I would read lips.
03:34Today, Liu Shenzhen is visiting Rayneo,
03:37a company that develops AI glasses with speech-to-text transcription.
03:42Microphones on the glasses pick up the words spoken nearby,
03:45and software displays them as captions, almost in real time.
03:49We'll try to see if you can wear this glasses on.
03:53Let's see if you can experience this glasses.
03:54Now, I'll open the phone and see the keyboard.
03:58Now, I'll open the phone in my smartphone.
04:00Now, I'm going to use the keyboard.
04:01Now, I'm going to choose the Chinese language.
04:01So, I'm going to be written down by the Chinese language,
04:04and you can see the English in your face.
04:07You can see the keyboard.
04:24اليو shen shen says she liked that the smart glasses are faster and more accurate than leap reading
04:29and they don't disrupt the conversation like phones do
04:33at a meeting eating out or hailing a taxi
04:36i would always wear them
04:40next time on crossing cultures we'll continue exploring new technologies that are making people's
04:46lives better we'll look at green buildings and how they are changing cities in china in europe
04:52and around the world join us
