Insta360 has launched the AI Voice Assistant, a major software update that turns Insta360 GO Ultra into a companion for travel, exploration and storytelling. The AI Voice Assistant is built with Google Gemini, it lets users translate conversations and get instant answers through voice and photo Q&A, all from one wearable device.

GO Ultra is a palm-sized wearable vlogging camera built for lightweight, hands-free, first-person capture. With the AI Voice Assistant, users can now capture, communicate, and discover without constantly reaching for their phones. Long-press the shutter button or say "Hey, Kira" while GO Ultra is powered on and the camera becomes an interpreter, guide, and source of instant answers.

The AI Voice Assistant helps break down language barriers in the moments travelers encounter them most, from ordering food and shopping to navigating transportation and handling everyday conversations. Instead of typing into a translation app and passing a phone back and forth, users can simply speak. GO Ultra interprets the exchange in real time.

With its Ask by Voice feature, when a question comes to mind, users just ask and the system responds. GO Ultra learns the sound of the user's voice and can pick it out from traffic, crowds, and nearby conversations. On a busy street or packed train, it stays focused on the person asking.

With its Ask with Photo feature, users can point GO Ultra at what they're seeing and ask questions. GO Ultra can interpret signs in unfamiliar languages, identify unfamiliar buildings, and provide context on exhibits, landmarks, and cultural details. Answers arrive in seconds, helping travelers better understand what's in front of them without stopping to search manually.

GO Ultra can help with practical details such as the weather, prices, local dishes, and souvenir recommendations, or provide background on the history, culture, and stories behind destinations.

GO Ultra now helps travelers do more than capture memories. It can support conversations with locals, help users discover places beyond the usual guidebook, and add context to the culture, history, and customs around them.

Everything runs through the same wearable camera already capturing the trip. Because these exchanges happen as part of the experience, they can also become part of the footage, turning isolated clips into a fuller record of the journey.

Once the day is over, Moments Pro adds another AI-powered layer to the workflow. Separate from the AI Voice Assistant, it identifies standout moments, organizes scattered clips into a coherent file, and pairs them with music that follows the movement and rhythm on screen.
