1:01Now PlayingFrom the outside, Meta's Orion glasses look like a normal pair of spectacles — if somewhat chunky and tinted. But Bloomberg's @EdLudlow found out they are anything but normal. Watch Ed test out Meta's augmented-reality device still in development. #meta #tech #technology #worldnews #business #orion #scifi
The device, still in development, is the latest attempt to turn the sci-fi concept of augmented-reality glasses into a practical product. When you put them on, you have a clear vision of the world around you, but images and text are overlaid by tiny little projectors using micro LED technology.
During a rare test of the glasses at Meta’s headquarters in Menlo Park, #California, #Bloomberg used Orion to display #YouTube clips and text messages, make video calls, and generate recipe suggestions by scanning a table of ingredients. The display is controlled by eye movements, and an accompanying wristband turns subtle finger twitches into a “click” or “scroll” on the screen.
