On November 2, 2026, The Paper reporters published a hands-on test report stating that after the recording indicator lights on mainstream AI glasses from Huawei, Xiaomi, Rokid, Qwen, RayNeo, INMO, Meizu and others were completely covered by light-blocking stickers costing less than 10 yuan, most models could still record normally without triggering an obstruction alert, and only a few models could not continue recording. The report noted that such light-blocking stickers are openly sold on multiple e-commerce platforms, with sales on one platform exceeding 5,000 units, and some sellers label them as usable for covert recording. Zhong Junhao, secretary-general of the Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Industry Association, believes that existing privacy notification mechanisms are mostly ceremonial notices, and that software-layer detection is easily circumvented by physical means. Manufacturers including RayNeo and Rokid responded that they have strengthened protections, and Rokid CEO Zhu Mingming called on industry peers to address the issue together.
