Ray-Ban Meta Glasses: A glimpse into the future of wearable tech
Classic style, cutting-edge technology. That’s one way to describe the new Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses. Seriously cool toy is another. What’s more, they’ve been described as “game-changing” in the world of visual assistance. These smart specs are intriguing, and we want to find out more.
Ray-Ban’s latest launch blends the brand’s signature style with a secret superpower: built-in tech. From taking photos to answering calls – all hands-free – staying connected has just become more seamless and intuitive.
Let’s take a closer look at the Ray-Ban Meta Glasses – their features, how they work, and what the future might hold for the latest wearable invention.
How do Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses actually work?
High-quality 12MP cameras are built right into the frames, so you can snap photos and record videos on the go while your phone stays put in your pocket. The frames feature intuitive touch controls and voice activation; just by tapping them or talking to them, you can control everything.
The battery life is impressive, too. A quick charge in the case and you’re good to go for a few hours.
To use the glasses, you just connect them to your phone through Bluetooth and pair with Meta’s dedicated app. The app lets you adjust settings, see your photos and videos, and even share them on social media.
One of our favourite features? The open-ear speakers. You can listen to music, take calls and hear notifications without feeling isolated from your surroundings. It’s perfect for staying aware of life around you, whether you’re walking down the street or riding a bike.
How to Use Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses
They’re nice and simple, which we like!
1. Charge them up: First, you’ll need to charge your glasses using the included case.
2. Power on and pair: Once charged, turn them on and open the Meta app on your phone. Follow the steps to pair them via Bluetooth.
3. Explore the app: This connection to your phone ultimately controls everything for your glasses, so the Meta app is your main hub for adjusting settings, accessing features and checking out your photos and videos.
4. Capture the moment: Want to take a photo or start filming? Just tap the frame to snap an image or hold it down to record a video. You can even go hands-free and use voice commands, like “take a photo” or “record video,” so you never miss a moment even when your hands are full. The Meta app lets you save, view and share your snaps directly to social media.
5. Stay tuned: Listen to music or take a call using open-ear speakers. They deliver clear sound without blocking out the world around you, so you can stay connected with your surroundings. You can control everything with a simple touch or voice command.
6. Never miss an update: The glasses can show you notifications and even let you livestream directly to social media, making them a great choice for content creators. Use the app to choose which notifications you’d like, giving you more freedom without having to constantly check your phone.
The Key Features of Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses
More than just a fashion statement, Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses are packed with tech, including high-quality cameras, discreet yet clear speakers for calls and music, and voice control for hands-free simplicity. You can also customise your glasses with prescription lenses, create your own frame and lens combination, or choose from Ray-Ban’s collection of timeless colours.
Connect your smart glasses to your phone and enjoy the freedom of asking quick questions with the benefit of built-in Meta AI. You’ll swiftly receive answers directly in your ear – ideal for on-the-go moments when you want to quickly check a football score or find the best local restaurants wherever you are.
Your glasses can also connect to your social media apps, making them a stylish yet functional choice for capturing and sharing content hands-free. And you don’t need to worry about feeling disconnected from the real world – the HUD (heads-up display) for notifications is subtle, so you can remain updated yet stay present.
So, Are They Really the Future?
Ray-Ban Meta Glasses are no doubt impressive. They look like regular Ray-Ban sunglasses, but they’re secretly packed with tech. You can connect to Meta AI, social media, take photos, answer calls, and even listen to music without pulling out your phone.
But they go beyond this. What really impresses us is the accessibility of the Ray-Ban Meta Glasses with hands-free access to the Be My Eyes platform. Be My Eyes and Meta have been working in partnership to develop the first and only accessibility tech for blind or low vision users, and this is available on Ray-Ban Meta Glasses. Just a simple voice command will call a Be My Eyes volunteer, who will ‘see-through’ the camera of your smart glasses. The volunteer will then give you helpful feedback or technical support through your open-ear speakers.
This is where we see the future of smart glasses, and we’re looking forward to seeing further developments between Be My Eyes and Meta to take visual assistance even further.
