At the Meta Connect event, Meta Platforms, Inc. (formerly Facebook) has made a long-awaited attempt to take center stage and unveiled a series of cutting-edge devices designed to bridge the gap between the virtual and physical worlds. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg showed off Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses and the Quest 3 VR virtual reality headset. He said Meta wants to make artificial intelligence simple and cheap for everyone.
The evolution of Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses
Meta demonstrated the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, which are a significant update to the old Ray-Ban Stories. They have a much better look, with different styles and colors like Denim, Caramel and Rebel Black. Good for everyday wear.
The 12MP wide-angle camera in the new Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses is a huge improvement over the old 5MP sensor. Although each clip can only be 60 seconds long, video buffs will appreciate the ability to shoot movies at 1080p/60fps. Users can now stream videos to Facebook and Instagram directly from their connected devices, making the glasses even more useful for creators.
The sound is much better thanks to five built-in microphones for spatial sound and better call quality. Louder speakers, immersive sound, simple voice commands, live streaming and sharing with friends.
People who want privacy will love the bright light when taking photos or videos. It is clear and prevents secret recording. With the ability to prevent recording attempts when the LED is closed, the glasses further emphasize Meta's commitment to user privacy.
The Meta View app, which offers a simple user interface and extensive features, has been completely redesigned by Meta to improve the convenience and ease of use of Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses.
Quest 3 VR headset: The wonder of mixed reality
Meta's Quest 3 VR headset keeps the company at the top of the virtual reality space. The Quest 3 offers the best mixed reality, and it's not as expensive as the others, starting at $500. Building on the popularity of the Quest Pro, this gadget gives users access to a video broadcast of their environment, seamlessly blending the virtual and real worlds.
In addition, Meta showed its first user-focused generative AI products, including Meta AI. This is a chatbot that works with text and photorealistic images. Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses already contain Meta AI, which will eventually be supplemented with other functions such as object recognition and language translation.
Mark Zuckerberg said Meta makes AI cheap and easy for everyone. They want to share low-cost or free AI for everyday life, making it accessible to everyone.
