Razer's New Holographic AI Assistant Sits On Your Desk And Promises Help, Not Judgement
"As for the other personalities, Ava's default personality is a fusion of HAL 9000 and the original Xbox boot-up screen, Kira is an anime waifu, Zane is designed to be your gaming wingman, and Sao looks like she's ready for a day at the office. Razer says these characters are rendered in real time on a 5.5-inch holographic display and feature "high-fidelity motion, eye-tracking, and facial expressions" to help them engage with users."
"A lot of interesting technology has been revealed at the Consumer Electronics Show 2026 this week, but one of the strangest might be Razer's Project Ava, an AI-powered desktop companion. Razer envisions the device as a "dynamic personality" that can interact with its owners as a 3D hologram, and it'll have several animated personalities to choose from, including one based on the prominent League of Legends esports player, Faker."
Project Ava is an AI-powered desktop companion that appears as a 3D holographic "dynamic personality" and offers multiple animated personas, including one modeled on esports player Faker. Ava uses human-like vision and audio sensing for contextual awareness and can converse, assist with work tasks through two-way conversation, and encourage self-care routines. Personalities include a HAL/Xbox fusion default, an anime-inspired Kira, gaming wingman Zane, and office-ready Sao. Characters render in real time on a 5.5-inch holographic display with high-fidelity motion, eye-tracking, and facial expressions. The device integrates dual far-field mics, an HD camera with ambient light sensor, RGB lighting, and currently uses xAI's Grok engine. Project Ava requires a USB-C connection to a Windows PC and targets launch in the second half of 2026; pricing remains unrevealed.
