The first generation of ByteDance's Doubao AI glasses has a total planned production volume of approximately 100,000 units and features the Qualcomm AR1 chip.

According to sources in the supply chain, ByteDance’s approach to its AI glasses may reflect the company’s cautious strategy regarding AI hardware. According to supply chain sources, the first-generation ByteDance Doubao AI glasses have a planned production volume of approximately 100,000 units, primarily targeting long-time Doubao users, with no plans for public sales. The second-generation ByteDance Doubao AI glasses are currently in development but have not yet entered mass production. As for whether the second generation will be made available to the general public, this remains undecided, and it is expected to take several more months to determine. Additionally, regarding the core hardware configuration, ByteDance’s Doubao AI glasses utilize the Qualcomm AR1 chip, rather than the Hengxuan 2800 chip paired with an external ISP chip as previously rumored in the market.
