On November 9,2023, Humane launched AI Pin. As a technology enthusiastic, I’m deeply interested in this product.

Today, I want to introduce you to this amazing invention of Humane, where you capture special moments, make a call or receive calls, and ask your AI mic anything only by tapping.

The Design of the Product

The design of the product is very simple and ergonomic. It weights less than 200 grams and it is easy to carry around. All you have to do is simply pin the product on your clothing. The product does not have a screen, instead, it has laser ink display that displays the screen on your hand.

“Watch your hand become a display for menus, experiences, and more simply by lifting and tilting your palm using the Laser Ink Display.”

The design of the product supports eye health very well. You use the product just by your hands, fingers, and voice.

Additionally, the product has a camera on it. You can capture moments just by two taps. Furthermore, the AI Mic can help you with tracking your nutrition. The sensors in the camera allows the AI to recognize the food you’re holding so it can tell you whether you should be eating that food or not according to your nutrition goals.

The AI technology used in Humane Pins is nearly perfect for this time. You can use your AI Mic to keep track of your nutrition goals, to remind you things, to catch up with the latest notifications you got, or to capture a moment.

Your AI Mic can even help you with translation when you’re traveling or you need to use translators. Additionally, your AI Pin can create a new specialized playlist just for you.
