Empowering a Better Future

Themed ‘Empowering a Better Future’, the event showcased OPPO’s determination to enrich its four Smart Initiatives in smart entertainment, smart productivity, smart health, and smart learning to deliver more innovation for good and build an inclusive and more positive future for all.

As part of its four Smart Initiatives, OPPO has invested a significant number of resources in developing its smart health technology.

Not only did the phone manufacturer establish the OPPO Health Lab in 2021 to develop proactive approaches to help users build healthy lifestyles, but this year OPPO also created a new smart healthcare sub-brand, OHealth.

OHealth H1

The OHealth H1 combines six health data monitoring functions intended for family use into a single device, including measurement of blood oxygen, ECG, heart and lung auscultation, heart rate, body temperature and sleep tracking.

OPPO said high-precision sensors and health algorithms help users take better care of the health of the entire family.

Unlike the industrial designs of traditional medical equipment, the OHealth H1 is a super-light device that weighs just 95g and features aesthetic rounded edges and a concentric oval design.

“This makes it easy for users to take the OHealth H1 with them anywhere, helping them to integrate regular health measurements into their daily routines,” it said.

MariSilicon X

Following the first self-developed dedicated imaging NPU, MariSilicon X, OPPO unveiled the second member of the MariSilicon family, the all-new MariSilicon Y Bluetooth audio SoC at the event.

Oppo said MariSilicon Y introduces a brand-new, self-developed Pro Bluetooth Pack that increases the Bluetooth bandwidth by a massive 50% compared with the highest spec Bluetooth SoCs on the market.

“Equipped with the exclusive URLC codec technology and a dedicated NPU with up to 590 GOPS of on-device computing power, MariSilicon Y can transmit an unprecedented 24-bit/192kHz ultra-clear lossless audio through Bluetooth for the first time ever, providing users with all the benefits of wireless connectivity with the same audio quality as a wired connection.”

During the event, OPPO also demoed its latest Assisted Reality glass — OPPO Air Glass 2.

Weighing only approximately 38g, OPPO Air Glass 2 features a lightweight design that includes the world’s first resin SRG-diffractive waveguide lens developed by the company.

These lenses OPPO said will support vision correction and further customisation, making them almost indistinguishable from regular glasses.

“OPPO Air Glass 2 will be able to make phone calls, conduct real-time translation, provide location-based navigation, convert voice into text for people with hearing impairments, and provide many more smart experiences.”
