Key Points:
- Memories.ai introduced Project LUCI at CES as a developer-focused AI wearable platform designed to offer durable memory and quick processing, building on last year's LUCI Pin concept.
- The core innovation is the Large Visual Memory Model (LVMM), which enables continuous, contextual understanding and sub-second search of visual data, addressing past AI wearable failures related to poor memory capabilities.
- Project LUCI includes lightweight hardware—a pin with a wide-angle camera, privacy switch, and up to three hours of recording—paired with a companion app and real-time world modeling to understand context over time.
- Available now as a developer preview, full release is expected in 2026, with partnerships underway with leading AI wearable companies to integrate Memories.ai’s technology.
