Meta is working on enhancing its Ray-Ban smart glasses by integrating a display, as reported by the Financial Times (via Engadget). These glasses have unexpectedly become popular among users and continue to receive updates that introduce additional functionalities.
Recent Updates
In April, Meta incorporated the Meta AI assistant into the glasses for users in the US and Canada. Just recently, an update brought features like Live Translations, allowing the Meta AI to view what the users are observing, and integration with the Shazam music recognition app.
Future Enhancements
Looking ahead, Meta intends to revamp the glasses by adding a display that will allow users to see notifications or messages directly. Previously, users depended on voice commands to send messages or manage other features of the device through the assistant.
New Design and Features
The new displays are expected to be smaller, with Meta aiming to launch the updated glasses in the latter half of 2025. In September, Meta unveiled a concept for Augmented Reality (AR) glasses named Orion, which features micro LED projectors. This design includes seven cameras to monitor hand and eye movements and can project images onto the lenses with a field of view measuring 70 degrees.
