Collaborative Smart Glasses

Ray-Ban and Facebook are Launching a Stylish Pair of Smart Glasses

— September 8, 2021 — Tech
Ray-Ban and Facebook teamed up to create a pair of smart glasses that will soon be revealed and they promise to offer the benefits of plenty of features and style. According to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg earlier this summer, the device will "let you do some pretty neat things."

The smart glasses have the ability to record high-quality video and they do so in a way that's completely hands-free. This week, Facebook Reality Labs VP Andrew Bosworth shared a video of his family vacation (and a Mark Zuckerberg cameo) and it was entirely captured on the collaborative smart glasses.

The co-branded smart glasses have the potential to help make relevant information easily accessible to users so that they can carry out a variety of tasks with a greater level of ease.
