Meta is reportedly developing a new camera-free smart glasses model called Luna, equipped with six microphones and a dedicated AI activation button for interacting with its chatbot and Muse agent. The move comes amid growing backlash over privacy concerns surrounding its existing camera-equipped smart glasses, often nicknamed "perv glasses." Luna may be unveiled at Meta Connect next week.
Background
Meta's Reality Labs division has faced significant public backlash over privacy concerns regarding its camera-equipped smart glasses, which critics argue normalize surveillance in public spaces. The company has invested heavily in the metaverse and wearable AI space despite substantial financial losses in Reality Labs.
