“Iron Man’s Jarvis Becomes Reality” — VIRNECT Unveils the World’s First AI Smart Safety Glasses, ‘VisionX’

 “Javis, please analyze the production status today.”

The AI assistant Jarvis from the Iron Man movies has become a reality.

VIRNECT (CEO Ha Tae-jin), a company specializing in industrial XR solutions, unveiled the Preview Showcase of VisionX — the world’s first AI-powered smart safety glasses — on the 22nd, turning the cinematic concept into reality.

At the showcase, the company presented a next-generation industrial environment where humans, AI, and robots collaborate in real time through live demonstrations. Various functions of VisionX, including voice control, robot integration, and AI-based video analysis, were demonstrated on site.

VisionX is an innovative product that provides real-time information analysis and AR-based visualization through built-in cameras and an AI voice control agent. It has already been recognized with a CES 2025 Innovation Award.

The device features a chatbot AI powered by GPT, enabling users to control screen brightness, sound, and app execution through natural conversation or voice commands.

In essence, VisionX sets a new standard for safety and productivity in industrial workplaces. Its ability to expand the operator’s field of view and enhance situational awareness through integration with nearby security cameras stood out during the demonstration.

It is expected to see wide adoption across various sectors, including manufacturing, construction, and logistics.

During the live demo, which replicated actual work processes, new employees interacted with VisionX’s AI assistant to obtain task information and proceed with their work. At the same time, they collaborated seamlessly with senior staff and experts via hands-free video calls through VisionX.

Using real-time screen sharing, experts and workers operated simultaneously to maximize collaboration. Robots were deployed in areas difficult or dangerous for humans to access, and communication with robots was achieved through voice commands.

The newly unveiled VisionX incorporates a wide range of technologies that VIRNECT has developed to date. It integrates Make, View—an ultra-high-precision 3D digital twin—and Remote, which supports real-time video-based operations.

“We can create an integrated information environment where humans and robots are connected through a single network,” said VIRNECT CEO Ha Tae-jin. “By remotely sharing the robot’s perspective, workers can safely monitor operations even in hazardous environments, such as confined or high-temperature areas.”

On the same day, VIRNECT also unveiled its functional roadmap following the launch of VisionX. In 2026, the company plans to:
▲ Provide View apps free of charge and distribute SDKs for self-developed applications,
▲ Introduce a black-box-style video recording function,
▲ Add AI-generated work procedures and reports, and
▲ Implement AI-based comparison and analysis tools.

Additionally, VIRNECT showcased various AI analysis features, including:

• a quality inspection function that compares and verifies 3D designs with actual structures,

• a personnel density detection and safety alert system for workplaces, and

• an image-based bolt omission detection function.

“VisionX is not just a wearable device but an intelligent work partner that integrates AI, vision, and robotics,” CEO Ha emphasized. “It will enhance both safety and efficiency in industrial environments.”

Meanwhile, VIRNECT has begun accepting pre-orders for VisionX, which will become available sequentially starting in January 2026.
