"Alexa, what is it I'm looking at?"

You’re used to summoning help from Amazon Alexa, the voice inside Amazon’s Echo smart speaker, in your kitchen or by your bed. If Amazon has its way, the artificial intelligent-infused Alexa digital assistant will be pretty much at your beck and call everywhere, and that means the bathroom, and even in a product such as the see-through augmented reality glasses that a company called Vuzix will be showcasing this week during the mammoth CES tech show in Las Vegas.

Spreading Alexa’s voice has been Amazon’s vision for some time, and was a major theme at last year’s CES, too, with Alexa starting to infiltrate cars, fridges and other household appliances. This year Amazon, and its partners are taking Alexa even further, which seems critical since rival Google has similar ambitions for its own Google Assistant, the voice inside Android phones and Google Home speakers.

One place you might find Alexa is in the bathroom, with Kohler adding Amazon’s assistant to what it calls the Verdera Voice-Lighted Mirror. You can control the lights with your voice. Or you ask Alexa, among its numerous other skills, to catch you up on the news, weather, and traffic while you’re shaving, say. The smart mirror will cost $999 on up and become available in late March.

But Amazon wants Alexa nearby when you’re out of the house, and not just on your phone or in the car. Just ahead of CES on Friday, Amazon announced the Alexa Mobile Accessory Kit toolkit for device makers and manufacturers to bring Alexa to a gaggle of on-the-go products, including so-called hearables, headphones, smart watches, fitness devices, and the like. The kit will be made available to manufacturers later this year.

Amazon has already said that Bose, Jabra, iHome, Beyerdynamic, Bowers and Wilkins, among others, plan on adding Alexa to various Bluetooth audio devices in the coming months.

One of the most intriguing products to watch with Alexa will indeed be the Vuzix Blade AR Smart Glasses that just might give life to a smart glasses product category that with Google Glass garnered attention a few years back, but has failed to get anywhere yet with consumers. Google Glass itself may make a return of sorts in the enterprise market.

The business or at least so-called prosumer market might be where we first see the Vuzix glasses. The idea behind the specs, which resemble sunglasses, is that you'll pair them with a smartphone you can leave in your pocket and purse. Then, with Alexa’s help, you can have the glasses project directions, menus, weather reports, stock quotes, sports scores, social feeds other hands-free alerts, on an image that appears in front of your eyes. And yes, you’ll still be able to see your real life physical surroundings at the same time. The glasses weigh less than 3-ounces, but at around $1000 they’ll weigh heavily on your wallet.

I’m eager to try them out, and see what other products, Amazon, Google and others trot out this week at tech's biggest trade show.
