Ali qwen unveils new AI glasses with iris recognition at 2026 bundang conference

On September 10, 2026, the new Qwen AI glasses, named N1, were unveiled at the AI Payment Zone of the 2026 Bundang Conference. The device was covered in black material, making it difficult to assess its full capabilities. The N1 will feature iris recognition with an error rate below one in a million, and it can track eye movements to interact with payment terminals. The glasses are expected to be priced lower than the S1 model. This marks the first time Qwen has introduced iris recognition in its AI glasses. The company has been expanding its AI hardware lineup this year, having previously launched the S1 and G1 models. At the World Artificial Intelligence Conference in July 2026, Qwen showcased full-duplex voice, eye-tracking, and biometric monitoring technologies, which are expected to be integrated into future products.
