#Meta #ARGlasses #AI #Orion #AugmentedReality #SmartGlasses #Quest3S #Llama32 #VoiceControl #TechInnovation #MetaConnect #RealTimeAI #MixedReality #RayBan #VirtualReality #GestureControl
According to Cointelegraph, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg introduced the first fully functioning prototype of the company's augmented-reality smart glasses, Orion, at the Meta Connect event in California on September 25. Zuckerberg described Orion as the most advanced smart glasses ever created, featuring tiny projectors in the arms that generate a heads-up display on real-world objects. He likened the glasses to a 'time machine,' offering a glimpse into an exciting future. Orion is controlled by voice prompts and a 'neural interface' wrist-worn wearable, allowing users to navigate and control apps through specific gestures. A demo video showcased Orion's capabilities, including a virtual game of Pong and video chat through augmented reality. Zuckerberg emphasized that Orion represents a shift from traditional computers and smartphones, enabling more integrated interactions with computer systems in the real world. Meta also announced upgrades to its Ray-Ban smart glasses, including real-time AI video interaction, processing, and live language translation between English, French, Italian, and Spanish. Additionally, Zuckerberg unveiled the Quest 3S mixed-reality headset, starting at $299 for the 128 GB version, significantly cheaper than the $500 Quest 3 128 GB headset, which will be discontinued. Meta will also discontinue the Meta Quest 2 and Meta Quest Pro headsets, while the 512GB Quest 3 will remain at a reduced price of $500. In the AI domain, Zuckerberg introduced Llama 3.2, a new AI model that allows developers to create more advanced AI applications with a deeper understanding of images and text. The update includes a new lineup of 'natural' voices for Meta AI, featuring famous personalities like former WWE star John Cena and English actress Dame Judi Dench. This announcement follows OpenAI's introduction of its 'Advanced Voice' feature, which added five new voices with upgradable features for premium ChatGPT users.#Meta #ARGlasses #AI #Orion #AugmentedReality #SmartGlasses #Quest3S #Llama32 #VoiceControl #TechInnovation #MetaConnect #RealTimeAI #MixedReality #RayBan #VirtualReality #GestureControl
๐ Meta Unveils Hyperscape Tech For Real-Time 3D Environments
#Meta #Hyperscape #3DEnvironments #Telepresence #RemoteWork #Metaverse #VirtualReality #Web3 #SmartGlasses #Orion #Quest3 #Technology #ImmersiveExperience #DigitalAssets #NFTs
According to Cointelegraph, Meta recently introduced a new technology called 'Hyperscape' that aims to revolutionize telepresence and redefine remote work. This tech takes the concept of stitching photographs together to create a 3D environment, similar to YouTubeโs 360 videos, and transforms it into a real-time rendering system.
Meta remains optimistic about the metaverse, as demonstrated by CEO Mark Zuckerberg at the company's 'Connect' event on September 25. During the event, Zuckerberg showcased the new 'Orion' smart glasses, which provide users with a heads-up display that seamlessly integrates digital information into their physical surroundings. While the Orion glasses garnered significant attention, the Hyperscape demo emerged as a notable highlight for virtual reality and Web3 enthusiasts.
Hyperscape, still in its experimental phase, allows users to scan an area using a phone camera and convert the imagery into a real-time-rendered, fully navigable digital environment. A demo of Hyperscape with Metaโs Quest 3 virtual reality headset was likened to the 'Holodeck' from the Star Trek universe. Currently, the demo is available to the public, but it only offers access to a few pre-rendered spaces created using the technology.
Future versions of Hyperscape could enable any observable environment to be rendered in the metaverse in real time. This advancement could allow virtual reality meeting attendees to interact with those physically present in real time from an immersive perspective. A decentralized version might enable geographically separated individuals to verify reality in real time through the metaverse, offering a more immersive and socially engaging experience compared to pre-recorded or forced-perspective video footage.
The rise of non-fungible tokens and digital assets has paved the way for the metaverse, but its mainstream adoption may require a bridge between Web3 and reality that offers more than just financial incentives.#Meta #Hyperscape #3DEnvironments #Telepresence #RemoteWork #Metaverse #VirtualReality #Web3 #SmartGlasses #Orion #Quest3 #Technology #ImmersiveExperience #DigitalAssets #NFTs
