Snap, Qualcomm expand collaboration to power future generations of Specs

Specs, a Snap (SNAP) subsidiary, and Qualcomm Technologies (QCOM) announced a multi-year strategic agreement to power future generations of Specs with Qualcomm Technologies’ Snapdragon system-on-a-chip. This is the first flagship engagement for Specs Inc., which is launching Specs, advanced eyewear that seamlessly integrates digital experiences into the physical world, for consumers later this year. Specs are standalone, see-through glasses that bring the digital world to you, allowing you to see, hear, and interact with digital content just like it’s in your physical space. Specs are powered by Snapdragon XR platforms. By combining edge AI and high performance, low-power compute, Snapdragon platforms provide the foundation that enables intelligent, context-aware experiences to run directly on-device, for faster and more private interactions. This strategic initiative builds on both companies’ commitment to making computing more human and more seamlessly integrated into everyday life, transforming the way the world works, learns, and plays together.
