Getting to know the XRAI AR2

The power button, touchpad, light and microphones on the XRAI AR2, and what each one does.

Updated 7 October 2026

The XRAI AR2 are captioning glasses. They show live captions from the XRAI app in both lenses, and three microphones in the frame pick up the conversation. They connect to the XRAI app on your phone over Bluetooth, and the app is where you choose languages, caption size and brightness.
