LLVision launched the Leion Hey2 professional AR translation glasses at CES 2026.
The real-time translation tools helps overcome language barriers to make it easier for people to communicate with those speaking a different language.
By displaying subtitles directly in the wearer’s line of sight, these glasses enable seamless face-to-face talks across more than 100 languages without pulling out a phone or breaking eye contact.
Travellers, professionals and educators are among those who will enjoy the freedom to engage naturally in multi-lingual settings to foster deeper understanding and collaboration.
“This is what translation really means to us. It’s not just about words. It’s about giving people the freedom to speak, to connect, and to be truly understood,” said Wu Fei, Founder and CEO of LLVision.
Leion Hey2 delivers sub-500 millisecond translation latency to ensure conversations flow without awkward pauses. With battery life for up to eight hours of continuous translation and up to 96 hours of total use via the charging case, it is good for a full-day meetings, class or trip.
The glasses prioritise the voice of the person the wearer is facing through directional audio pickup, suppressing background noise in busy environments such as conferences or streets.
Deaf and hard-of-hearing users benefit from always-on captioning, turning inaccessible dialogues into inclusive exchanges without extra devices.
Weighing just 49 grammes with a familiar browline frame, Hey2 feels like regular eyewear, blending naturally into professional or social scenes.
An optional AI query mode lets users get quick contextual answers — ideal for tourists at museums or markets — by simply speaking and holding a button to keep interactions discreet.
Privacy-focused design processes data on secure Microsoft Azure clouds with user controls for history, making it suitable for sensitive conversations.
Hey2 builds on the first-generation Leion Hey, which saw more than 30,000 units shipped and powered UN exhibitions and award-winning accessibility projects.
Priced at US$549 (US$499 pre-order until January 31 with a clip-on sunglass lens and 1,200 minutes of Pro translation service), it is available now via LLVision’s US store.
