Episode notes
Meta Adds A Real Display To Ray‑Bans
- Meta's new Ray-Ban Display glasses put a 600x600, 20° color LCoS display in the right lens for lightweight info overlays.
- The display targets short tasks like messages, directions, captions, and small videos rather than immersive AR.
Try Before You Buy For Fit And Visibility
- Try the glasses in person before buying since the display is subtle and available in limited sizes and finishes.
- Visit a retailer for fitting and to evaluate brightness, comfort, and app compatibility before paying $799.
Wristband EMG Controls Complement The Display
- Meta pairs the glasses with a metaneural wristband that uses EMG for gesture control and promises future in-air handwriting recognition.
- Separation of controls (wristband) and display (right lens) signals Meta's phased approach to wearables input and accessibility.
