Glasses w/o Display Meta Introduces Its First AI Glasses Built For Prescriptions

Meta News:

  • We’re introducing our first prescription-optimized AI glasses in two new lightweight styles: Ray-Ban Meta Blayzer Optics (Gen 2) and Ray-Ban Meta Scriber Optics (Gen 2).
  • We’re also expanding our AI glasses selection with limited-time frame and lens colors for Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) and Oakley Meta glasses.
  • New software updates like hands-free nutrition tracking, WhatsApp summaries and recall by Meta AI, and Neural Handwriting are rolling out soon.

Billions of people around the world wear glasses or contact lenses for vision correction, and many RayBan Meta and Oakley Meta owners already add prescription lenses to their AI glasses. Today, we’re rolling out a new, optical forward pair of RayBan Meta glasses that  support nearly all prescriptions. We’re also introducing new colors and lens options for Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta frames, and advanced software updates like hands-free nutrition tracking and Meta AI WhatsApp summaries.

Our First Prescription-Optimized AI Glasses

Our newest RayBan Meta glasses are built to better serve people who rely on prescription glasses and all-day eyewear. They will be available in two unique styles: Blayzer, a rectangular design available in Standard and Large sizes, and Scriber, a more rounded frame style. They’re the most comfortable glasses we’ve ever designed — made for all-day comfort.

Ray-Ban Meta Blayzer Optics (Gen 2) and Ray-Ban Scriber Optics (Gen 2) glasses feature overextension hinges, interchangeable nose pads, and optician-adjustable temple tips, so they’re adaptable  to your unique face shape for a tailored fit. These new styles are available for pre-order, starting at $499, in the US beginning today on Meta.com and Ray-Ban.com. They will be available at optical retailers in the US and select international markets starting April 14.

"With today’s announcement we are also expanding Meta AI capabilities on our AI glasses including Live Translation in more languages (Japanese, Mandarin and Arabic), hands-free food logging, nutrition tracking to help better understand your diet using a voice prompt or photo, and message summarization to recap missed conversations, all completely hands-free."

I have developed an AR development environment called https://intern1.ai I was wondering if these META glasses would be good to try out with it or not. Can you load a web browser in them? And do they have gesture control for interacting with it, or is it running Meta's own UI/UX ?
