"Meta has been selling variants of smart glasses in collaboration with EssilorLuxottica successfully since 2019. There are two models of Ray-Ban-branded Meta smart glasses already on the market, and if the latest leaked video is anything to go by, another pair of eyewear may be on the horizon: even two new models are possible. But before we speculate, let's address the elephant in the room."
"At the Connect keynote, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is likely to announce consumer-ready smart glasses with a display. This possibility has been rumored for a long time. However, the possibility was evident in the unlisted and now-removed video, which briefly showcased the new pair of Ray-Ban-branded glasses featuring a built-in display, along with a wristband that will likely be used to control the eyewear."
Meta has sold Ray-Ban-branded smart glasses with EssilorLuxottica since 2019 and currently offers two models. An inadvertently published and later removed video revealed a new Ray-Ban-branded pair that appears to include a built-in display visible on the right eye and a wristband controller. The wristband is indicated to support hand gestures and eEMG input for composing messages. The glasses appear to integrate Meta AI for question answering and navigation with map overlays. CNBC reports the HUD-enabled glasses are codenamed Hypernova. The leak may also function as promotional hype ahead of the launch.
