Radio Frequency Testing

With the rapid development of augmented reality technology, smart AR glasses, as innovative devices that integrate display, computing and interaction, need to meet the corresponding international standard requirements when entering the global market. IEC certification, as a widely recognized proof of compliance with International Electrotechnical Commission standards, is of great significance for the global layout of products.

I. Understanding IEC Certification and Its Significance

IEC certification is a conformity assessment based on the international standards formulated by the International Electrotechnical Commission. Although IEC itself does not directly issue certifications, its standards are adopted by many countries and regions and serve as an important technical foundation for entering the global market.

The core value of this certification is reflected in

Prove that the product is designed in compliance with internationally recognized safety and performance standards.

Lay a solid foundation for obtaining the CB system certificate and other regional certifications (such as CE, KC, etc.).

Enhance the competitiveness of the product in the international market and the trust of consumers.

Ii. Core Processing Procedures for IEC Certification

To obtain IEC certification, the following systematic steps are usually required

The first step: Determine the product range and applicable standards. First, it is necessary to clarify the functional modules of the smart AR glasses, which usually include the display system, processing unit, battery, audio and possible wireless communication functions.

Step 2: Select a certification body and submit the application. Find a certification body with the corresponding qualifications and formally submit the certification application.

Step 3: Sample testing and technical document review: Send the fully functional samples to the laboratory recognized by the certification body. Meanwhile, the certification body will review the technical documentation of the product.

Step 4: Obtain the CB certificate and report. After the test and audit are passed, the certification body will issue the CB system certificate and test report. This document is the key evidence that your product has passed the IEC standard test.

Iii. Key Test Items and Applicable Standards

As a composite product, the certification of smart AR glasses needs to refer to multiple IEC standards.

The main testing directions include:

Electrical safety testing: Evaluate the basic safety performance of the product, such as anti-electric shock, insulation, and withstand voltage.

The main IEC standards that smart AR glasses may be involved in include: IEC 62368-1: Safety standards for audio/video, information and communication technology equipment. IEC 62133: Safety requirements for secondary batteries containing alkaline or non-acidic electrolytes. IEC 62471: Photobiological safety standard for luminaires and luminaire systems. IEC 61000 Series: Test Requirements for electromagnetic compatibility.

Iv. Important Notes

Standard dynamic tracking: IEC standards are updated from time to time. It is necessary to ensure that the product complies with the current valid version.

Iii. Key Test Items and Applicable Standards

Functional differentiation considerations: If the product integrates wireless functions such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, in addition to security standards, the radio equipment directive requirements of the country or region where it is located also need to be taken into account.

V. Professional Advice

Given the technical complexity of smart AR glasses and the multiple standards involved in the certification process, collaborating with testing and certification institutions that have rich project experience in this field can effectively control the project progress and ensure a one-time pass.

Plan for certification in advance: It is strongly recommended to introduce certification requirements during the product research and development design stage, conduct pre-tests and evaluations, which can effectively avoid major modifications and cost overruns caused by design flaws in the later stage.

We suggest that you start your certification planning as soon as possible. Professional certification service providers can offer you professional support ranging from standard interpretation, product improvement suggestions to full-process application management.
