Meta launches camera-free AI glasses amid privacy pushback, teases Muse Charm product
CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced the new lineup of glasses at the social media giant's annual Connect conference at its Menlo Park headquarters
Meta unveiled new AI-powered wearables, including camera-free audio glasses, at its Connect conference, amid global privacy concerns over camera-equipped wearables. CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced Muse, an AI personal assistant, and teased a smaller, puck-like device called Muse Charm for the holiday season. The audio glasses, priced at $349, will ship on October 13, while display glasses priced from $799 will soon be available in new markets.
Meta's VR glasses, lighter than its Quest headsets, are set to launch in spring 2027. The company faces privacy and safety challenges, having settled a lawsuit in August and facing restrictions and bans abroad.
