ETRI Hosts 'AI-in-Glass Forum 2026'…Building Domestic Cooperation Ecosystem
Published2026.09.17 09:24
Components, Display, and AI Services Industry, Academia, Research Institutions, and Government Gather Together
This event was organized as part of the 'AI In-Glass Technology Development for Personal AI Agents' project being conducted by ETRI with support from the Ministry of Science and ICT.
Under the theme of 'Putting AI in Front of Your Eyes, Connecting Technology and Industry: Toward Korea's AI Glass Ecosystem,' representatives from the fields of △core components △display △devices △spatial intelligence △AI agents △and application services attended to discuss domestic cooperation directions.
The range of applications is expanding as lightweight and low-power technology, spatial computing, and generative and multimodal AI technology converge.
It is expected to expand into various fields including industrial operation support, remote collaboration, education and training, and everyday services.
ETRI believes that when AI glasses are combined with spatial intelligence and AI agents, they can evolve into an intelligent platform that provides contextual information without separate commands.
Following this, DeepFine CEO Kim Hyun-bae and Sapien Semiconductor CEO Lee Myung-hee respectively introduced spatial intelligence services and display technology.
ETRI AI In-Glass Strategy Research Center Director Jung Il-kwon presented a research and development strategy centered on spatial intelligence, user and environment understanding, collaborative spatial information, AI agents, and display technology development.
