Orion AR Glasses Unveiled by Meta: First Look

During the Meta Connect 2024 event, Meta announced the Orion AR glasses. These glasses are Meta’s very first AR (augmented reality) glasses.

These AR glasses by Meta are not yet yet and not will they be for a while but Meta’s CEO, Mark Zuckerberg demonstrated a showcase of the glasses during the Meta Connect 2024 event that was recently held. Meta has stated on its official website that their upcoming AR glasses will bring in a new generation of computing. The company also expects a shift in the paradigm of how communication takes place among people.

At first glance, the Orion looks like everyday glasses but the capabilities stored in these glasses are incredible. Meta’s AR glasses provide a hands-free and hassle-free video-calling experience. Users can video-call someone and that person would appear as a life-sized avatar in the same room as the caller. Meta AI has also been integrated into these glasses to guide users every step of the way.

Orion AR Glasses: More on these AR glasses by Meta

Meta has utilised a lightweight magnesium frame with thermal management techniques. Furthermore, these glasses are also equipped with miniaturization of cameras and sensors. The Orion AR glasses seamlessly blend into the real-life world with its advanced AR technology. Meta’s upcoming glasses come with micro LED projectors and an optical-grade silicon carbide which results in a 70-degree field of view.

The tech giant has created a blend of natural inputs with electromyography tech in the form of a stylish yet subtle wristband. The users can adjust the light settings in their glasses while wearing their wristbands effortlessly. The wristband receives, interprets, and adapts the EMG signals from a user’s wrist to interact with the view of the glasses. Lastly, these AR glasses provide low-latency computing power in the form of a wireless form.
