Smart glasses, considered trendy and still relevant, have made a comeback to exact revenge upon smart watches and usher in the new, good-looking era of the Internet of Things. Mark Zuckerberg introduced the latest version of Ray-Ban’s Meta Smart Glasses at the Meta Connect event held at their Menlo Park, California headquarters, on Wednesday, September 27th. This unveiling occurred precisely two years after the release of the initial Ray-Ban Stories, which lacked the advanced features found in the new glasses.
Launched with a variety of stylish designs and color options by Ray-Ban, these smart glasses offer the ability to make phone calls, play music, take photos, record videos, and even live stream. Mark Zuckerberg described them as “the first smart glasses equipped with Meta AI, enabling hands-free interaction wherever you are.” Users can initiate interactions with the device by simply saying, “Hey Meta” and can also control various features using this command. A forthcoming software update will make these glasses “multimodal,” though initially, this feature will be in beta in the United States. Bodily integration cannot happen at once. This is another step.
