Available for over a year

Is this the year when smart glasses become mainstream? Whether you need spectacles for your vision, or wear sunglasses, tech firms are hoping you’ll buy their latest devices. Tech Life’s Alasdair Keane has road tested some of the latest wearables on the market.

And we hear from a Hong Kong tech company that’s developing AI for neglected languages, starting with Cantonese.
