Meta Glasses Features, Specifications

Like other wearables in the company's lineup, the Meta Glasses feature the Meta AI assistant for hands-free interactions. However, it is now powered by Muse Spark, the flagship natively multimodal reasoning and agentic AI model developed by the Meta Superintelligence Labs. It is claimed to be capable of allowing users to ask contextual questions about what they are seeing, get recommendations, manage schedules, and access information hands-free.

There is a dedicated button for invoking the Meta AI assistant or launching custom functions. For audio, there are discreet open-ear speakers with adaptive volume support. The wearable is also equipped with a six-microphone system, comprising two microphones on the nose pads, two on the temple arms, and two on the front frame, along with wind noise reduction technology to improve voice capture during calls and AI interactions.

Like the Ray-Ban Meta, the Meta Glasses are equipped with a 12-megapixel camera with a 100-degree field of view (FoV). The company says users can capture photos at up to 3,024 x 4,032-pixel resolution and record videos in up to 3K resolution at 30fps. The camera also supports 1080p recording at up to 60 fps and 720p at up to 120 fps, along with features such as Hyperlapse and slow-motion video capture. Meta's new Dynamic Photo feature is claimed to capture multiple frames of the moment and then recommend the best shot.

The company says it will introduce future software updates that will also enable pedestrian navigation for display-free turn-by-turn directions.

The Meta Glasses support live translation across 20 languages, including Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, and Portuguese. The company is also introducing support for 14 additional languages through upcoming updates. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 6 with tri-band 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz support, Bluetooth 5.4, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), and support for Meta's Neural Band accessories over Bluetooth 5.2.

Meta claims over eight hours of battery life on a single charge, which increases to up to 40 additional hours with the charging case. The glasses include 32GB of onboard storage, which is claimed to be enough to store up to 1,000 photos or more than 100 videos of up to 30 seconds each.
