### LUCI: The AI-Driven Wearable Camera That Captivated CES 2025
At this year’s [CES](https://mashable.com/category/ces), I unexpectedly discovered LUCI—a sleek, AI-driven wearable video camera crafted by OpenInterX for lifelogging and vlogging. It felt like a treasure waiting to be found.
In fact, LUCI may very well be my top discovery of [CES 2025](https://mashable.com/article/best-of-ces-2025)—and I nearly overlooked it.

### Record for Extended Hours
The LUCI Pin is a compact, square-shaped camera that can be easily clipped onto clothing. It boasts an ultra-wide 12MP lens capable of capturing video up to 4K quality. What differentiates it from other wearable cameras, such as the [Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses](https://mashable.com/review/ray-ban-meta-smart-glasses), is its capacity to record for significantly longer times. While the Meta glasses are limited to 3-minute clips, the LUCI Pin can record or livestream for as long as 4 hours, per OpenInterX.
This limitation is solely based on the device’s battery life. When connected to an external battery pack, LUCI can essentially record or stream endlessly, making it a flexible tool for creators and lifeloggers.

### A Tool for Capturing Everyday Moments
The LUCI Pin is designed as a lifelogging device, perfect for vloggers or anyone wanting to document their daily experiences without the need for extensive note-taking. As a parent, I appreciate what LUCI offers—it enables special moments to be captured while remaining engaged, rather than being glued to a screen.

### Enhanced Processing with the LUCI Hub
One notable aspect of the LUCI Pin is its processing capabilities. OpenInterX founder Shawn Shen noted that many wearable cameras face overheating issues due to excessive internal data processing. LUCI circumvents this problem by transferring the processing workload to your smartphone or a supplementary accessory known as the LUCI Hub.
The LUCI Hub is a compact, smartphone-sized device that acts as a dedicated processor, storage solution, and display for the LUCI Pin. It can even attach to the back of your iPhone via MagSafe, which simplifies carrying multiple devices.

### AI-Enhanced Organization for Creators
A standout feature of LUCI is its AI-based content organization. Whether using the LUCI Hub or the companion app on your smartphone, the system can automatically sift through your footage and generate stylized videos. This is revolutionary for TikTok and Instagram creators who wish to share their day’s highlights quickly without devoting hours to editing.
Unlike other AI-powered wearables that have struggled to find traction (such as the often-criticized [Humane AI Pin](https://mashable.com/article/humane-ai-pin-reviews)), LUCI keeps its AI features streamlined and functional. There’s no redundant virtual assistant to respond to queries you could easily search. Instead, the AI is tailored to enhance your recording experience.
For instance, you can search for specific content—like “dog”—and LUCI will promptly retrieve all videos that feature a dog. In another demonstration, LUCI showcased its capability to recognize what the user had for breakfast the day before, utilizing footage recorded by the Pin. It even recalled who they shared the meal with.

### Privacy Safeguards Built-In
Wearable cameras commonly provoke privacy issues, but LUCI tackles these concerns with two well-thought-out features. Firstly, a small indicator light turns on when the device is recording, promoting transparency. Secondly, the LUCI Pin includes a physical cover that slides over the lens, ensuring that no footage is taken when you don’t want it to be.

### Affordable and Within Reach
OpenInterX aims to release the LUCI Pin at a reasonable price of $99, with initial units anticipated to ship in the upcoming months. The LUCI Hub add-on will be available later, although a release date has yet to be specified.
If LUCI performs as impressively in practical use as it did during its CES demonstration, it’s clear why this wearable could rapidly become an essential item for many.

LUCI transcends the notion of a mere wearable camera—it is a device meant to effortlessly blend into your daily life, aiding you in capturing and organizing memories with simplicity. For vloggers, parents, and anyone looking to document their day without distraction, LUCI might just revolutionize your experience.
