Meta Reveals ‘Orion’ Prototype AR Glasses with Impressive Field-of-view and Wireless Compute Unit
Meta has unveiled a prototype of its first AR glasses, codenamed Orion. These compact glasses boast a class-leading 70-degree field-of-view and rely on a pocket-sized wireless compute unit to handle heavy processing tasks. Unlike Meta’s previous Ray-Ban smartglasses, Orion features a display and uses advanced silicon carbide lenses to achieve its wide field-of-view. Additionally, the glasses come with an EMG wristband for precise hand movement detection, making input more intuitive. Although still a prototype, Meta aims to refine Orion for potential future release. For the full story, visit Road to VR.
