Meta Improves Battery Life, Video Quality of Ray-Ban AI Eyeglass

By Modupe Gbadeyanka

The battery life of the Ray-Ban Meta AI eyeglass has been doubled, offering about eight hours of mixed use, a statement from Meta said.

Also, the company has improved the video quality of the smart fashion piece, allowing it to do ultra HD 3K video recording, more than double the previous number of pixels.

Meta disclosed in a notice that this would allow for sharper, smoother, and vivid content capture.

It noted that these features would be enjoyed by users of the existing Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta HSTN glasses through a software update.

“We’re enhancing live AI. As we make battery and energy efficiency optimizations, Meta AI will transition from something you prompt with a wake word to an always-available assistant. While all-day AI is a technical challenge we’re heads-down focusing on, you can currently use live AI for an hour or two.

“We’re introducing three new limited-time-only seasonal colours and a limited-edition Wayfarer Matte Transparent frame with two lens colour options to better match your personal style,” it said.

Meta said it designed the AI glasses with three core values in mind: they should be light, feel comfortable, and look great; give users powerful tools when they want them that fade into the background when you don’t; and engineered to get better over time.
