Meta has rebranded its Quest software platform to Meta Horizon OS, now open to other manufacturers like Lenovo and Asus.

Ray-Ban's new smart glasses, developed with EssilorLuxottica, integrate with Apple Music, WhatsApp, Messenger, and feature Meta AI enhancements.

The glasses support multimodal AI for processing photos, audio, and text, and allow hands-free video calling and livestreaming via WhatsApp and Messenger.

Meta AI provides voice commands and real-time access to information, capable of answering queries about the user's environment and their last photo taken.

Significant AI updates include object identification, landmark information, language translation, and connection to Instagram for live content sharing.

The smart glasses come in new frame designs, including a 'low bridge fit' variant, aiming to appeal to a broader range of users.

The Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses with the AI assistant offer convenient cloud-integrated, hands-free information access without additional equipment or fees.

Starting April 24, updates rolling out will enhance these wearables, making AI interaction more intuitive and marking a leap forward in wearable technology.
