ROKID AI and AR Glasses Arrive in the Philippines: Wearable Tech Access for All!

Things are certainly becoming accessible as one of the worlds largest companies of AI and AR smart glasses arrive in the Philippines. They're called ROKID and will be entirely accessible to Filipinos via The Loop which is part of the Powermac organization. I've experienced using it first hand during the event and I really like it!

Nicole Remiter from The Loop says "We are a multi brand apple and non apple seller. We are growing and expanding our products, and we now have Rokid for AI and AR innovation. It is for traveling, entertainment, navigation and other services. It will be available at the Loop Ayala mall branches. You can experience it in our stores now."

Alex Yuen from Rokid Global HK says "We are from Unity Tech and now have presence in 6 countries. We are launching these products and so far the response has been very good. We have 500 users in Taiwan for this single product. With Powemac and The Loop, our devices will reach our customers in the Philippines."

Justo Chang acknowledged how Rokid has been adopted as part of big corporations AR solutions. Over 70 percent Chinese automotive brands that use new energy  are also using it. 

It has open ear audio, take photos (some models), record videos, utilizing YodaOS , they also are recognized by top tech award giving bodies. I also heard they're doing a partnership with Vision Express in case you need to have actual eyeglasses for the frames. 45 min recording, 6 hours music playback, 4 hours Bluetooth calling, ideally one charge per day under moderate use. It also has the ability to record at 60 fps if you want to vlog with it.

Alex added "The current AI feature of the glasses include listening to music, record videos, take photos, key in questions to chatgpt. Here's a Chinese menu from a restaurant, I ask Rokid to translate it from Chinese to Filipino. So it could be any language you want, use it for other scenarios like identifying dog breeds, as it takes real world photos and push information that's understandable. It can also translate real time. We could also translate from Tagalog to Chinese (Mandarin). You just need the Rokid glasses and it'll listen, help you simplify many functions. It can also transcribe, a very powerful function for meetings. Simple instructions can do. It can also be used as a teleprompter like what we are doing now. I don't have to memorize, it listens to your speech and scroll up automatically. Use sliding motions on the side and it could go back to the start of the speech if it jumps while speaking. The AR Navigator has an actual map, much like Google maps. We tried it in HK and it won't block your vision while driving. Later on, it will work with Alipay by scanning the code and approving the payment. It does have a lot of applications possible, it can recognize voice for payment too. With this your life will change."

Macgyver Yu says "You see what Rokid can do with AI, let me introduce Rokid AR Spatial where you can play games and watch movies at the same time. You can also use this for zoom meetings, everything in private. Your screen is only seen by you. Your lifestyle will evolve. (Shows us posting on social media, watching movies, playing games). It's powerful, almost all applications work with it. The Rokid is also myopia friendly, you don't need glasses because you can adjust focus. Whether you are seated or lying down, you can watch more via Giant Screen mode. Like watching at a 300 inch screen. In sports mode, you can see how it is stable while moving. It would be best while working out. It has a 6 hour battery life, you need to experience it."

The impact of this is certainly life changing. If you think about it, we're just barely scratching the surface of what the AI and AR glasses can do. The application for PWD's, for those who cannot see or hear is within reach. Add to that, the things that Filipino developers can do with the same technology this brings is something that we can be excited about. Again, this is just the tip of the iceberg, and hopefully we all could get a dose of these really good wearables soon. I personally like the one for gaming and the one with the Smart TV. I'll try and ask if I could review one. 

LG Honors Filmmakers in 21st Cinemalaya

It was a really different celebration that happened at this year's Cinemalaya. It was light, quite unserious, but the merits were still given to those that deserve it. For those who don't know, it's an annual independent film festival made to empower those who make films, those who write, people in front and behind the cameras. 

Leading electronics brand LG knows how important this is for Philippine cinema, and they've become a major sponsor for this event as they do their 21st installment. Their theme this year is "Layag sa Alon, Hangin at Unos" which means to journey through waves, the wind and the storm. 

They also want to give importance to those who make these inspiring stories. They've always been part of efforts in making sure technology supports those who are in the creative industry and arts. Which is why they are doing the legwork, and will give some of them LG OLED Evo AI C5 television sets as this year's winners!

Here's some on the list:

The LG OLED evo AI TV's use "Perfect Black" technology which means you get the black that you want for the feel you intended to have on scenes. The sets also utilize A11 AI processor 4K Gen 2 so you get the depth and drama as the filmmaker intends to show. There's a lot to love on these really good TV's.

If it's good for Cinemalaya, you should think about what you want to have on your own home.

LUMOS FLOAT Review: First 360° Rotatable Projector For Movie Nights on Walls or Ceilings!

Taking time out of your busy schedule to watch a movie, a show or two has been really hard these days. Work for most is getting in the way, but it certainly the same level of sadness if you don't have your own projector at home. These days, it's essential because going to theaters have already been a little troublesome and expensive. Add to that, transportation costs, overpriced food, and that kid kicking your chair too.

I've featured LUMOS a few times here on the site and have lived to enjoy it so much that I get to use it regularly for family gatherings and parties. Folks often ask me where I got it. Well let me get you in on a secret, you can actually purchase this online and have it delivered to your home conveniently. They also have a new one called LUMOS FLOAT, a one of a kind 360 degree rotatable home cinema projector which we installed just a week ago. See, my room needed an upgrade because I've always wanted to have one installed for movie nights or YouTube sessions because I love watching anime series off the app.

The LUMOS FLOAT is pretty light and compact. No more heavy and bulky projectors!

 

For starters, installing this LUMOS FLOAT is quite easy. You can mount this off a regular tripod or choose to put this on a wall or ceiling. Think about the possibilities. If you put this above your bed, you can beam it to the wall in front or even use the ceiling if you are lying on your back. This means you can be in the most comfortable position you can imagine. Like watching the best shows without straining your neck.

 

 

They call this the SkyTrack, a built-in bracket that makes it even easier to mount the projector with hooks from 3M without the need to drill your walls or ceiling. You can then have it pointed to your preferred position, totally convenient for those who are not handy with building stuff (especially those IKEA shelves you've been meaning to finish months back LOL). The LUMOS FLOAT can be projected to a wall so you can get a 150-inch screen. Since my room is a bit small, I could take it a little around 1.5 meters away from it and I could enjoy a 50-inch screen. It's super easy to set it up that way and looks crisp at 1080p quality. It has 3000 lumens which makes it brighter than usual, I've seen no washed-out parts so far, the video quality is quite awesome!

The LUMOS FLOAT uses its remote to focus, way more convenient now since it's not manually done. The device also has built in apps like Netflix, Wi-Fi connection and Bluetooth if you want to connect it to the internet or your device. It has Wireless Mirror Casting, so you can easily see what you have on your phone. I even watched several videos from my phone without any hitches. The sound quality was also good and loud enough to fill the room. With it, you'll feel those shows and movies would be more immersive. You'll start to fall in love with those nights you'd spend with loved ones, your family, and with yourself. 

 

If the video looks a little imbalanced, it's easy to access the settings and adjust the projector. You can also adjust the zoom to your liking. The device also has a USB port so if you've got media you need to access from a drive, this is plug and play. So far, I'm addicted watching anime on it and several Filipino series. I've also been watching several action movies which felt like I'm in the actual scene in full volume. No wonder a lot of people get hooked with the LUMOS projectors. This isn't just me, a lot of folks swear by it and I'm sure if you experience it first hand, you'll know what I'm talking about.

Here's a little preview of the LUMOS FLOAT:

The LUMOS FLOAT also comes in 3 colors. You can choose Gold, Silver or Pink. I prefer the Gold since I have several gold accents in my room and it goes pretty well with the white walls. This costs Php 4,999 for the regular while the Smart version (with the apps) cost Php 7,999. It also comes with a 1-year local warranty so if you run into concerns, they'd be able to take care of it.

LUMOS TABLET: The Perfect Blend of Function and Fun for only ₱6,999

I'm a writer, content creator and jack of all trades. We're pretty known in the "industry" for dishing out stories fast. I often write about events that I go to a la minute. It's not magic, but hard research done before interviews. It's also about taking notes, and wanting to keep the exciting things happen, with the goal of telling folks while it's fresh, and as soon as I get it. Arguably, in this day and age, you can't discount the fact that being "fast" counts too. It's now an established workflow.

We often write with a desktop/laptop computer at our home office. If I'm out, I'd pull out my notes and checklist and constantly write with a smartphone with real struggle. I could have carried the laptop with me but with the travel I do and my diagnosed sciatica, it's not going to be a comfortable solution. This is where the LUMOS Tablet comes in. 

Screen size is good. I can see what I need to see for work or play.

Carried this and used it before an event, finished 3 articles with it.

Case cover fits like a glove!

Light weight, even has a  front and back camera!

This is something I'd be able to use for work and leisure. Good tablet for kids too!

This hails from the same brand of projectors I've had the pleasure of using in the past (for work and entertainment). The LUMOS TABLET has a 10.1 inch screen, capable of playing 4K videos, has 8 GB of RAM and a 6000 mAh battery (for hours of use), but still kept quite affordable. I could watch on streaming apps, watch YouTube videos, or enjoy hours of entertainment with Karaoke or play game apps too. This would be an ideal device for what I'd want to do since it's got WPS Office Apps (that has a word processor and presentation software in it), and is lightweight. It also fits in my bag, and since it's a bundle, comes with a Bluetooth keyboard, a mouse, pen (editing would be a cinch!) and its own case cover. It works like a mini laptop, but works without the worries of it being too big.

It can be cast to a Smart TV, I see what I exactly have on the tablet to the TV I have at home. YouTube, Netflix, Presentations all work!

Surely, this could also work with kids who would need to study or folks who would want to cast on TV's for presentations, everyday leisure watching of your favorite K-Dramas, series, movies, reality shows and more. They've got lots of folks, celebrities, YouTubers and Influencers who have attested, given their trust and confidence to it. It is after all, the perfect blend of function and fun. If you would want to get one, simply visit their official website HERE. 

LUMOS TABLET: A great blend of function and fun!

Wouldn't that be a good idea?! Head on to https://lumosprojector.ph/products/lumos-tablet to know more about the device. It's a good investment for family, and for yourself.

5th PROPAK PHILIPPINES Slated February at the World Trade Center

Another day, another year for PROPAK PHILIPPINES. This is the largest processing, packaging and trade event in the country. They are celebrating their 5th year this 2025 and is slated to run on February 12 to 14 at the World Trade Center Metro Manila in Pasay City. 

Their secretariat expects over 250 exhibitors not only from the Philippines but also other countries. Foot traffic this time is around 12,000 composed of trade visitors, buyers, and business owners especially in the MSME sectors. This is the place to see the latest developments in packaging, designs and innovation. They also are gearing towards sustainability, and more tech that follows food safety standards.

Ms. Apple from Informa Markets says "We have been so grateful for DTI's support, and for their unending help on ProPak, we will make sure all tech will be available on the show store not just locally but also for international clientele. We have a platform for educating which will also coincide with the event."

Commissioner Joseph Jocson of Asian Packaging Federation says "In the past, we often go to Thailand for Propak and now it's here on their 5th, and we support the regional ProPak events in other ASEAN countries. This is the platform for knowledge sharing, and we continue to promote it with sustainability. By actively engaging with this, we contribute to the growth, knowledge and business development which will be beneficial for the industry. MSME's are an integral part of our economy and we can showcase the world of what we have here. New trends are coming out, and it is very crucial, and we have to embrace different solutions in the region. We have to localize packaging design, adapt, foster innovation and align global standards since we export them to other countries. Digitalization is a big help especially for those who couldn't do big inventories."

Ms. Grace from DTI says "For our MSME's, we have different activities and we are excited not just for them but our partner agencies, so they could see and provide information for their respective regions. They purchase machines, ask what they will do next and monitor, it doesn't end at just attending but know what interventions we need to do for stakeholders. They just need to go to the facility and pay for the packaging through these shared facilities. We also are checking how much job they generate. We partner with PROPAK and Informa Markets Philippines to bring more MSME's to help them when they are scaling. We are your partners for growth."

Lucky Lopez from Design Center of the Philippines says "We often present our packaging solutions including agriculturally sourced like Piñaper (made with Pineapple leaves) and increase the use of it in packaging. We need industrial grade manufacturing because it will lessen the price. It's one of the things we want to do to make it sustainable and replace plastic since we have so much of that. We also do trend forecasting seminars in packaging to develop not just your product but your packaging. We have MSME's and businesses approach us, and enable companies for market penetration to other countries."

Dr. Angel from the DOST says "We recognize the fast evolution of packaging so we are upgrading our facility and establish testing and R&D for materials and research ways to make it sustainable. In our division, we simulate it and do green packaging efforts to be at par with other partners and scientists in the packaging technology. For every project we do, we include local manufactures and know the source of the materials and check alternatives. We also collaborate with international organizations to make sure we follow industry standards."

The press conference was attended by Ms. Grace Baluyan of ROG DTI, Commissioner Joseph Jocson of Asian Packaging Federation, Dr. Angel Basbasan Jr. of the ITDI DOST, Mr. Lucky Lopez of the Design Center of the Philippines, and Ms. Apple Limbo - Salisa of Informa Markets - Philippines.

Companies such as Wolf, Middleby, Multivac, Heat and Control plus participants from Japan, Germany, China, Singapore, Taiwan and Italy will be bringing their top tier packaging and processing tech so lots of people could learn about it and what we could benefit from the IPACK IMA Italy and Informa Markets partnership. They will also showcase the recent winners of Packaging Innovation and Design Awards and the Asia Star Packaging Awards at the venue courtesy of the Australasian Institute of Packaging and the Asian Packing Federation. 

They are heavily supported by government sectors such as the Department of Trade and Industry, the Department of Science and Technology and organizations such as the Philippine Association of Food Technologists, Philippine Printing Technical Foundation, the Production and Operations Management Association of the Philippines and the Philippine Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association among others.

There will be over 50 conference sessions with over 60 speakers in the lineup for this event. You may pre register via https://bit.ly/PKP25prereg now to get information about this big event.

TCL Took CES 2025 Seriously: Displays and More!
