Overview
- The display-equipped glasses, codenamed Hypernova, reportedly place a small color screen in the right lens with roughly a 20‑degree field of view for glanceable information.
- Reports indicate a target price around $800 and production through Meta’s eyewear partner EssilorLuxottica.
- A companion wristband uses sEMG to read hand and finger signals for input, but testing has surfaced accuracy and fit issues as well as interference from long sleeves.
- Developers have been invited to begin testing both the glasses and the wristband ahead of the planned Connect reveal.
- A recent U.S. Customs filing describes “Next Generation Smart Glasses” with capacitive touch controls, pointing to a third‑generation voice‑only Ray‑Ban model alongside Hypernova.
