Zuckerberg introduced revolutionary glasses

Facebook owner Mark Zuckerberg introduced the revolutionary augmented reality glasses “Orion”, which were immediately described as the most advanced smart glasses available.

The bracelet included in the set of glasses monitors the signals of the brain, ie it has a cloud interface. With the glasses you can call, play, watch movies, browse.

Perhaps the best feature is simultaneous speech translation. The glasses translate into dozens of languages ​​online and sound is heard perfectly through the speakers of the glasses. Zuckerberg makes a distinction between artificial intelligence and augmented reality. If there are several products on the table, the glasses recognize them, put virtual labels on them and, if you want, they can show you a smoothie recipe from the available products.

If two people have these glasses, they can pair them and play virtual ping pong. In fact, the glasses can be used for video chatting through Messenger. And you are wearing glasses, and across the street there is a person without glasses, he sees your avatar.

“Orion” has a large field of view / 70-degree field of view, which is wider than any known AR glasses, /, weighing less than one hundred grams. Orion’s hardware, however, is effectively three parts: the glasses themselves, a “neural bracelet” to control the glasses, and a wireless computing pouch that looks like a large phone battery. The glasses don’t need a phone or laptop to work, but if they’re more than 12 feet away from the bag, they’ll be useless. The battery only lasts about two hours.

The glasses can be controlled through a combination of eye tracking, hand tracking, voice, and the neural wristband, which vaguely resembles a Fitbit without a screen. The bracelet is made of high-performance textile material and uses electromyography (EMG) to interpret neural signals associated with hand movements. In milliseconds, these signals are converted to input data. He doesn’t read your mind, but he feels like one.

The glasses are not yet on sale – they will be tested by employees and inspectors, but future versions will appear on the market.
