The first pair of smart glasses made by Facebook (aka Meta) and Ray-Ban are going on sale for $299. They’re called Ray-Ban Stories, and you’ll be able to find them pretty much anywhere Ray-Bans are sold, including LensCrafters and Sunglasses Hut stores.
The frames feature two-front facing cameras for capturing video and photos. They sync with a companion camera roll app called Facebook View, where clips can be edited and shared to other apps on your phone (not just Facebook’s own). There’s a physical button on the glasses for recording, or you can say “Hey Facebook, take a video” to control them hands-free.
Can’t see how this one is going to play out in #Facebook‘s squeaky clean #privacy world?!! Maybe a little slide in from Tom Cruise and a Bob Seger track to make people forget? #wakeupimagine#wearablecomputing#eyewear#raybanstories#riskybusiness
