Ra Ray-Ban glasses
If you can’t resist the impulse to check your mobile phone times without account, even when you are with friends, the goal wants to give you an alternative: look at your augmented reality glasses. But the live demos From Mark Zuckerberg ran painfully badly. Several times.
O CEO yes Meta, Mark Zuckerbergon Wednesday presented his new series of augmented reality glasses, including what he described as the “first AI glasses with high resolution ” – a new version of the smart glasses, with a tiny screen visible only for those who wear them.
But it was not long before the company conference plunged into chaos, says the.
The demonstrations of the social networking giant failed repeatedlyresulting in embarrassed looks, deafening silences and nervous laughs.
The weak provision of the new glasses of Zuckerberg made it very clear, embarrassing, that This technology is far from ready – Even at a time when companies continue to try Stick Artificial Intelligence in all aspects of our daily lives.
“What a boring. I don’t know what happened“Zuckerberg said, after one of the flaws interrupted the great demonstration he had prepared.”Let’s move on to the next thing that we wanted to show, and we hope it works ”
Despite the first hesitation steps, the CEO of the goal is ambitious: matar o smartphonewhich will give way to, announced Zuckerberg in December last year.
«The promise of glasses is to preserve This sense of presence We have with other people, ”said Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of the company, during the Connect 2025 goal.I think we lost it a little with the mobile phonesand now we have the opportunity to recover with the glasses. »
It is with this argument that the goal is trying to sell its most advanced pair of smart glasses to date, that the company expects them to exceed the smartphone market share.
In fact, the goal wants its own hardware to gain market share to Apple and Google, to failing to have to deliver part of the profits Through the application stores, says the.
The Metal Labs Division of the Goal has been spend money on an alarming rhythmsomething that has worried investors over the years. But the event finally showed a glimpse of the destination of the approximately 70 billion dollars of accumulated losses since 2020.
Like previous models, which have sold millions of units, new glasses include cameras, columns, microphones and an integrated AI assistant.
O Incorporated viewerpositioned so as not to obstruct the field of view, Show target applications like Instagram, WhatsApp and Facebook, as well as real -time directions and translations.
What most distinguishes the meta-ban display is the Meta Neural Banda bracelet that uses surface electromyography (SEMG) to capture the signals sent between the brain and hand when running a gesture.
Although the liveli-live demonstrations failed, according to Zuckerberg because of the Wi-Fi, it was possible to see the bracelet in action. Zuckerberg quickly wrote text messages and sent them through his ray-bans. “Already I can write about 30 words per minute».
In a smartphone with tactile screen, like an iPhone, studies estimate that users can writeR about 36 words per minutewhich makes Zuckerberg’s statement impressive. Participants in reality Labs studies were closer to 21 words per minute.
Unlike the previous ray-Ban of the goal, this technology allows to use the glasses without having to speak aloudsomething that is not always natural in public contexts.
Although Apple Watch users can also send messages without using their voice, the process is so slow and slow that it only serves only in the last resource.
The goal has been investing strongly in research by Smg since 2021, even showing A more robust prototype called Orion. Like Apple and Google, the Facebook owner is preparing for a not too distant future-where intelligent glasses can, perhapssupplant the smartphone.
