✦ AI Summary
Meta unveiled plans to expand the reach of its personal AI agent Muse from smartphones and desktops to AI glasses.
At Meta Connect 2026, Meta unveiled AI glasses with Muse applied, a next-generation glasses lineup and Meta VR Glasses.
Meta said it plans to offer more than 100 frame, color and lens combinations by the end of this year, while the domestic launch schedule remains undecided.
Meta unveiled follow-up plans to expand the reach of Muse, its personal AI agent released earlier this month. The expansion will extend from smartphones and desktops to AI glasses, and more than 100 product options were also teased.
On the 23rd local time, Meta held Meta Connect 2026 and disclosed plans to support Muse on AI glasses at the event. Meta also unveiled its next-generation glasses lineup at the event.
Meta also laid out plans to expand its AI glasses lineup. The lineup will include AI glasses that combine audio, cameras and displays, as well as VR glasses weighing about 100 g, as Meta broadens the portfolio to strengthen the wearable environment for everyday AI agent use.
Muse proactively supports tasks needed based on a user's goals and schedule. The direction of this announcement is to expand supported devices to include AI glasses, which would allow users to search for information, translate in real time and manage schedules without directly checking their smartphones.
Meta said AI glasses with Muse will offer features such as checking sports scores, looking up information on nearby places and translating live conversations. It added that it plans to further expand those capabilities to include support for building healthy habits tailored to users' goals and schedules, as well as schedule management tailored to users' goals and schedules. The domestic launch schedule has not been set.
While pushing ahead with the expansion of Muse's reach, Meta is also significantly broadening its AI glasses lineup. By the end of this year, Meta plans to offer more than 100 frame, color and lens combinations across Ray-Ban, Oakley and its own Meta glasses.
Separately, Meta unveiled Ray-Ban Meta Audio. It is Meta's first audio glasses product and was developed in collaboration with EssilorLuxottica. The glasses-shaped device, Ray-Ban Meta Audio, is designed for hands-free use of music, podcasts, calls and AI assistant features.
The product weighs 43 g. Battery life is up to 12 hours on a single charge, and up to 48 hours with the charging case. It will be available in two styles, Clubmaster and Burbank, with a total of 23 color and lens combinations. The domestic launch schedule has not been set.
Meta also unveiled Ray-Ban Meta Gen 3, its next-generation AI glasses. The product adopts a slimmer design than the previous generation and offers up to 9 hours of battery life. It also features a custom action button that lets users launch Meta AI immediately.
It is also equipped with a 6-microphone array that reduces ambient noise by more than 90%, and a 12-megapixel camera that supports 3K ultra HD video recording and dynamic photo capture. Later this year, Dolby Atmos video recording and playback with 360-degree spatial audio is scheduled to be added.
Meta expanded its glasses lineup. It added new Capri and Nova frames to Meta glasses and also unveiled a collaboration collection with artist LISA. It also operates a Mix & Match program that lets users combine frame, lens and case colors themselves. In Korea, Ray-Ban Meta Gen 3, Meta glasses and the LISA collaboration products are slated to be released first.
Meta also added Meta Ray-Ban Display features. The added features are hands-free navigation, video calling, photo editing on the display and Dolby Atmos. It also expanded the sales regions. The existing sales region was the United States, and the additional sales regions are the United Kingdom, Canada, France, Italy and Germany.
Meta also unveiled Meta VR Glasses alongside AI glasses. Meta VR Glasses are glasses-shaped devices weighing about 100 g, reducing weight and bulk compared with conventional headsets. Their defining feature is that they provide immersive environments for movies, sports, work and gaming.
Meta said the product is the first VR device to receive IMAX Enhanced certification. The device supports viewing some movies and 3D content on a large virtual screen, and in sports content it offers an experience close to watching from a stadium. For work, it can display virtual screens, and flat surfaces can be used like a keyboard and touchpad.
Meta said that while it presented those features, the domestic launch schedule has not been set. The key message of this announcement was the combination of AI agents and wearable devices.
Meta said it aims to expand Muse to its glasses lineup and to create an environment where users can interact with AI in daily life without launching separate apps. It segmented the lineup by use case into an audio-focused entry model, AI glasses with cameras and displays, and immersive VR devices. Going forward, it plans to simultaneously expand software, AI features and the app ecosystem, with the goal of developing glasses into a personalized AI interface.
