The glasses feature transparent lenses projecting digital content while allowing users to see their surroundings, with processing handled by a separate compute puck. Available in select countries, the device supports multiple virtual windows and Bluetooth peripherals. The launch follows Meta's similar VR glasses, highlighting growing competition in smart glasses with a focus on combining display, software, and computing power.
