Voice control assistance powered by Meta AI
Just say the words ‘Hey Meta’ and the voice control on your Meta AI glasses will be activated. With this feature, you can give voice commands to your glasses to take photos, check the weather, set reminders, play music and more, hands-free. Even if using your phone’s touchscreen isn’t feasible for you or you’re busy cooking, gardening or doing other chores, the glasses respond to your voice quickly and perform the commands without you having to tap your phone’s screen. The Llama AI built into these smart glasses, allows your voice to control features and adapts to your speech effectively for easy recognition. It’s just like having a personal assistant nearby, making everyday tasks a little simpler.
Easy navigation and object recognition
Exclusive to Meta Ray-Ban Display models, Easy Navigation provides a visual map in real time, with turn-by-turn directions. The built-in sensors and camera enable these smart glasses to read signs, recognise nearby objects and describe your surroundings, which can be really helpful when you’re exploring unfamiliar places or when it’s not possible for you to use your phone for directions. Although this feature is available in selected cities as of now, it could expand to other locations in future. Object recognition is an AI feature available across all models, identifying and giving descriptions of the view in front of the wearer, via audio feedback.
Visual assistance with ‘Be My Eyes’ feature
With the Be My Eyes feature, severely sighted or low vision individuals can connect with volunteers for visual assistance. Using voice commands, for instance, ‘Hey Meta, Be My Eyes’ and ‘Hey Meta, call Be My Eyes,’ users can call a volunteer instantly. The volunteer will see what your camera sees, providing real-time help for tasks like reading fine print, identifying objects or navigating places.
Live translation
Translating conversations in real time is yet another feature of Ray-Ban Meta glasses that breaks language barriers. With an integrated camera, microphones and open-ear speakers, you can enjoy live translation while ordering food, reading signs in a different language or connecting with locals, who don’t know your language. The live translation feature is available across 20 languages, including English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese and more. The translation needs an internet connection to work. However, you can use it offline for languages you have downloaded language packs for through the Meta AI mobile app.
Hands-free photos/videos capturing and sharing
With Ray-Ban AI glasses, you can easily capture photos, shoot videos and share them to your Instagram without using your phone. It’s fast, simple and easy. However, before sharing, these photos and videos need to be imported from your glasses to your phone’s photo app using the Meta AI mobile app.
