Samsung To Launch Haen Smart Glasses And Moohan Headset By 2025: Report

Samsung may launch AI-powered smart glasses, known as Haen, by the end of the year, according to a news report from the South Korean tech news website ETnews.

The smart glasses are meant to resemble sunglasses or eyeglasses in its outer design and are expected to fully cover the user's eyes. The lenses are also expected to act as screens and display information and images on them.

According to the report, Samsung is designing it to fit different face shapes and to be used outdoors. It is also anticipated to use cameras and sensors for motion sensing and tracking to recognise and process commands from the user in lieu of control buttons.

Samsung is also expected to release its Moohan headset, which will be powered by Anroid's XR AI-powered operating system developed in partnership with Qualcomm, which is expected to run virtual reality, augmented reality and mixed reality applications and processes for the headset user, optimal for indoor use.

The Android 'XR' software can undertake a myriad of headset-exclusive actions, such as visually simulating the experience of "soaring-above" cities and landmarks for the headset user based on what they select on Google Maps or using features, such as 'Circle to Search' to make quick searches through hand gestures.

Haen is also expected to run on the software in tandem with support from Google's Gemini AI chatbot.

The South Korean technology company will focus more on "advanced user experience" to distinguish itself from Apple's 'Vision Pro', according to a statement given to ETnews from an insider.

The products were first announced at Samsung's 'Galaxy Unpacked 2025' event in California on Jan. 22.

The event hinted at the 'Moohan' headset having 'eye-tracking' capabilities where users could select and undertake actions and commands through their eye movements. Samsung also implied that the user could utilise speech commands and hand movement cues for the same.
