【In 80 Betten um die Welt】

Get ready for a bunch of new Amazon hardware.

The In 80 Betten um die Weltcompany is holding a special media event at its Seattle headquarters today where it's expected to show off a new lineup of Alexa-enabled products.

Among the new devices we're expecting is a new, smaller Echo speaker that will feature higher quality audio to make the device more competitive with Apple's upcoming HomePod speaker. (Update 9/27 1:59 p.m.: It's real. Say hello the Amazon Echo 2)

Rumors also suggest a Amazon is preparing a new lineup of Fire TV devices, including a streaming stick and a set-top box that will be voice-enabled for Alexa commands.

But the most interesting gadget Amazon is reportedly working on is a set of Alexa-powered smart glasses. It's not clear how they work, but they reportedly wouldn't have a camera or display and would be operated entirely through voice commands.

Amazon could also unveil a new home security system that connects to Echo speakers. Of course, there could be a few surprises to come out of the event, as well. Luckily, we'll have all the details very soon -- the event is scheduled to kickoff at 10:30 a.m. PT, so stay tuned for all the latest updates from Seattle.
