Even compared with other premium binoculars, the Swarovski Optik AX Visio 10x32 binoculars stand out thanks to their smart technology — the manufacturer calls the AX Visio 10x32 the world's first Artificially Intelligent-enabled smart binoculars. 'Smart' here doesn't mean built-in image stabilization. Instead, it refers to users' ability to identify birds and animals in the wild, with the specifics relayed via an eyepiece display. While doing this, users can also snap photos with the device.
