Ray-Ban Smartglasses: A Look Into The Future
The second generation of Ray-Ban smartglasses certainly made a splash at the event. These aren’t just any glasses; they’re a blend of style and cutting-edge technology that’s set to change how we interact with the world.
This new generation is lighter, slimmer, and water-resistant, with a longer battery life and a redesigned charging case. Plus, they come in two styles and various frame options, even offering the ability to add prescription lenses1.
But what truly sets these glasses apart is their ability to livestream and their integration with Meta AI. By saying “Hey Meta,” you can engage with Meta AI to get information, and control features — all hands-free.
