Meta’s second‑generation Ray‑Ban smart glasses blend ordinary eyewear with built‑in cameras, speakers, and a generative AI assistant. They look like regular frames, can capture photos and one‑minute videos, and stream audio directly from the arms. A beta AI mode lets users ask questions, translate text, and identify objects using the hidden camera. Battery life lasts less than a full day, requiring a charging case that can replenish the lenses multiple times. Privacy is signaled by a subtle LED and shutter sound, but the device’s always‑on nature raises social and privacy concerns. Overall, the glasses offer a practical, if limited, glimpse of wearable AI. Leggi di più
