OPPO Showcases Innovative AI Initiatives and Upcoming Product Launches at MWC 2024

Overnight in Barcelona, leading global technology company OPPO unveiled a range of new AI-centered initiatives including the prototype for its new generation of assisted reality glasses, OPPO Air Glass 3, and details around the recently launched OPPO AI Centre. The brand also showcased new products that will be launching in the Australian market this year, including the OPPO Reno11 F 5G handset and a new TWS audio offering, the OPPO Enco Buds2 Pro.

Bringing users closer to AI experiences with the world’s lightest binocular aR glasses 

Thanks to its ability to understand various data types, including text, images, video, and audio, multimodal AI technology can process and interpret more complex user scenarios, unlocking new potential in user interactions, such as voice and visual. While XR (extended reality) devices present new possibilities in implementing these features, they require both advanced functionality and lightweight designs if they are to truly take on the role of a personal, everyday smart assistant. Driven by this vision, OPPO has introduced the all-new OPPO Air Glass 3 prototype to explore the possibilities of AI technology based on cross-device collaboration between XR devices and smartphones.

Weighing just 50 grams, the OPPO Air Glass 3 features a self-developed resin waveguide with a refractive index of 1.70, a display brightness uniformity of more than 50%, and a peak eye brightness of more than 1,000 nits. Together, these ensure the OPPO Air Glass 3 provides a wearing experience that is close to that of a regular pair of glasses while also providing the best full-colour display of its kind. Thanks to the access to OPPO AndesGPT provided by the Air Glass APP on the smartphone, users only need to lightly press the temple of the OPPO Air Glass 3 to activate the AI voice assistant and begin performing a range of tasks.

The OPPO Air Glass 3 supports touch interaction, which can be used to easily control functions such as music playback, voice calls, information display, colour image browsing, and more. The glasses also feature reverse sound field technology, an open acoustic design with four microphones, and other innovations that improve noise isolation to deliver high audio quality and enhanced privacy protection.

Embracing AI with the new OPPO AI Center

AI has long been a core area of investment and development for OPPO. At OPPO ODC 2023, the company released its first self-trained generative AI model, AndesGPT, featuring dialogue enhancement, personalisation, and cloud-device collaboration. As of December 31, 2023, OPPO has filed over 3,160 global patents related to AI.

On February 20, OPPO established the OPPO AI Center, The OPPO AndesBrain (Binhaiwan Bay) IDC, a new hub designed to better focus the company’s resources on R&D in AI and drive cutting-edge, user-centric exploration of technology and applications that aim to bring the benefits of AI to everyone.

Building an AI ecosystem through collaborative innovation

A mature AI ecosystem requires open collaboration throughout the industry. As part of its commitment to supporting the creation of this ecosystem, OPPO’s efforts in AI extend far beyond its own innovations to encompass a diverse portfolio of collaborations with a range of global partners.

At this year’s MWC, OPPO is joining motion vision sensor startup, AlpsenTek, and Qualcomm to showcase the trio’s collaborative efforts to pioneer the use of Hybrid Vision Sensing technologies featuring the new AI Motion algorithm. Developed under OPPO’s lead, AI Motion can perform image deblurring and high frame rate image interpolation for use in high-speed cameras based on a combination of traditional RBG image data and event vision sensing (EVS) motion data. Using AI Motion, smartphones offer advanced solutions to address image and photo blur, enabling the capture of true 960fps slow-motion videos in 4K resolution. Leveraging EVS data for precise moving object alignment between frames enhances both dynamic range and resolution. This technological integration opens up exciting possibilities in image and video capture, elevating the potential for creative content creation.

Introducing the OPPO Reno11 F 5G: Borderless Display and 64MP Ultra-Clear Triple Camera

With a vibrant, eye-catching design, a 64MP Ultra-Clear Triple Camera and a 120Hz AMOLED Borderless display, OPPO Reno11 F 5G is a winning combination of fresh looks and smart experiences.

Effortlessly enjoy every moment with Reno11 F 5G’s Magnetic Particle Design and immersive screen. Slim and lightweight at just 7.54mm thin and a super-comfortable 177g, long bouts of messaging, gaming, or watching won’t leave you with hand fatigue, and Reno11 F 5G is supremely pocket-friendly too. A stylish Sunshine Ring camera reflects light with an eye-catching flair, and in addition to looking striking, Reno11 F 5G’s IP65 splash resistance makes sure it can withstand a downpour without breaking a sweat.

When it’s time to power on, Reno11 F 5G’s Borderless 120Hz AMOLED Screen beams with its ample 6.7” size and vibrant display technology. An ultra-slim 1.47mm border on either side of the display creates an almost all-screen experience, with its 93.4% screen-to-body ratio for a class-leading, immersive view.

Reno11 F 5G’s brilliant 10-bit AMOLED screen beams with quality, showcasing over 1-billion colours for natural-looking gradients, matched with a peak brightness of 1100 nits for true-to-life visuals that shine. Its smooth, 120Hz refresh rate keeps social feeds scrolling with fluid ease, and with 2160Hz PWM dimming below 90 nits, enjoy a more eye-friendly experience.

With its 64MP Ultra-Clear Triple Camera and 4K recording, Reno11 F 5G is perfect for content capture. A high-resolution 64MP main camera takes detail-rich photos, and with an ultra-wide and dedicated macro camera, it’s versatile too.

The star of the show is the 64MP Ultra-Clear Main Camera that captures pin-sharp photos. And with OPPO’s intelligent Night mode and a versatile 25mm wide angle, it’s an all-purpose camera you can lean on whatever the lighting. For expansive landscapes, Reno11 F 5G’s ultra-wide 8MP camera covers an all-seeing 112º field of view.

More than a versatile stills camera, Reno11 F 5G also captures 4K Ultra-Clear Video from both the main camera and 32MP selfie camera, so you can record, vlog, post and express yourself without sacrificing quality.

Reno11 F 5G is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 7050 chipset, delivering 6nm computing that makes confident multi-tasking, gaming and demanding tasks like 4K video capture possible.

Up to 8GB RAM and an additional 8GB available with RAM Expansion means Reno11 F 5G can work across multiple apps and games without background apps being closed. And with 256GB storage and storage expansion of up to 2TB via microSD card, enjoy a library of offline movies and games, making Reno11 F 5G a perfect travel companion.

Go the distance with Reno11 F 5G’s long-lasting, large 5000mAh battery, confidently getting you through a full, connected day. And with advanced battery technology, expect impressive battery life even after four years of daily use. When you do need to power up, with 67W SUPERVOOC™ Flash Charging, Reno11 F 5G can charge to 30% in just 10 minutes and reach 100% in only 48 minutes.

The Reno11 F 5G is confirmed for an Australian launch in Q2 of 2024, with local pricing and availability to be announced.
