CIIF 2026 Highlights: GlaxReality Showcases China's Industrial AR Strength to Global Markets
The 26th China International Industry Fair (CIIF) was held in Shanghai from October 12–16, 2026. As one of China's leading industrial exhibitions, it brought together innovative technologies and solutions from across the world.
GlaxReality Intelligent, ranked No. 1 in China in industrial AR shipment volume, showcased its full-stack industrial AR solutions at the event.
As industrial AR continues to gain commercial traction, GlaxReality attracted strong interest from both domestic and international visitors. Customers and partners from Europe, Germany, Türkiye, Southeast Asia, Thailand, Romania, and the Middle East visited our booth to explore practical applications of industrial AR.
01 Industrial AR Expands Across Industries
At CIIF 2026, GlaxReality demonstrated more than standalone smart glasses. Our solutions integrate AR hardware, software platforms, and AI capabilities into real industrial workflows.
· Smart Inspection: Digital work instructions and inspection records displayed directly in the user's field of view.
· Remote Collaboration: First-person video streaming enables experts to provide real-time guidance from anywhere.
· Safety Management: Real-time alerts help reduce operational errors and missed inspection steps.
· Digital Operations: Inspection data and operational records support more efficient management.
International visitors showed particular interest in applications across energy, manufacturing, oil and gas, agriculture, and smart campuses.
At the exhibition, GlaxReality's Sales Vice President, Wu Haifeng, was invited to speak at the Power Distribution Safety and Intelligent Operations Forum. His presentation, “From Inspection to Data Assets: How Full-Stack Industrial AR Is Transforming Industrial Operations,” explored how industrial AR can support safer and smarter power operations.
Across these applications, the focus is not on finding use cases for AR as a concept, but on solving real operational needs through durable hardware, first-person visual access, traceable data, and expert collaboration.
02 Five Industrial Devices Backed by Full-Stack R&D
GlaxReality showcased five industrial AR devices, covering a range of form factors from lightweight smart glasses to integrated helmet-mounted solutions.
Our core strength lies in full-stack independent R&D, covering optical materials, precision modules, complete devices, and AI algorithms. GlaxReality has expertise in both geometric array waveguides and PVG holographic waveguides, supported by more than 450 patents.
· Xingcai Smart Glasses: Weighing just 91g, featuring AR+AI capabilities and high-transparency full-color waveguide displays.
· C3000E: A binocular AR device with a 160-inch virtual display and a 48MP camera. It also supports external accessories such as infrared cameras and barcode-scanning rings.
· C3000H: Designed for outdoor exploration and emergency response, with infrared night vision and sonar-based fish detection.
· H4000: An industrial safety helmet-mounted AR device with intrinsic safety certification and 1.8-meter drop resistance.
· C2000: A first-person collaboration device designed for demanding industrial environments, supporting inspection and remote assistance.
Beyond hardware, our software platform integrates standard operating procedures, intelligent inspection, manufacturing supervision, after-sales services, and remote guidance. AI capabilities include image detection, speech recognition, instrument reading, nameplate recognition, and defect detection.
Together, these technologies deliver an integrated industrial AR solution in which hardware is built for the field, software fits operational workflows, and AI algorithms address real industrial scenarios.
03 Chinese Industrial AR Gains Global Recognition
The growing international interest at CIIF 2026 reflects the increasing global competitiveness of China's industrial AR industry.
From European customers exploring product upgrades to Turkish companies seeking explosion-proof solutions, Thai customers exploring smart campuses, Romanian visitors considering agricultural applications, and Middle Eastern energy companies looking to improve pipeline maintenance, demand for practical industrial AR solutions continues to expand.
This interest reflects advances across the entire technology chain, from optical materials and core modules to complete devices, software, and AI algorithms.
With full-stack R&D capabilities validated across diverse industries and markets, GlaxReality is helping bring Chinese industrial AR solutions to the global stage.
As industrial AR adoption accelerates worldwide, GlaxReality remains committed to advancing AR technology and helping industries improve safety, efficiency, and digital operations.
