Meta has rolled out a significant AI update to the Ray-Ban Smart Glasses, bringing multimodal capabilities that were previously limited to research demos. The update includes real-time object identification, scene description, and live translation.
Say "Hey Meta, what am I looking at?" while viewing a product in a store, and the glasses will identify it, show reviews, and find the best price online. It's like having Google Lens built into your face — but hands-free and instant.
New AI features in this update:
- Real-time translation — translates spoken language with captions in your ear (12 languages)
- Smart Identify — identify plants, landmarks, products, and even dog breeds
- Cooking Mode — step-by-step recipe guidance using the camera
- Accessibility Mode — describe surroundings for visually impaired users
The Meta Ray-Ban Smart Glasses were already our top pick for AI glasses, and this update makes them an even easier recommendation at $299.
