Meta's Meta Ray-Ban Display Glasses Get a Hands-On Makeover
In an effort to make its display-enabled smart glasses more appealing, Meta has rolled out a new feature that allows users to send messages by tracing letters with their hands. The move comes as the company continues to fine-tune its offerings, with the first update since launching the device late last year seeing the addition of this handwriting feature.
The Meta Ray-Ban Display Glasses had initially teased this functionality when they were first announced, but users would have to wait for the rollout - now available to those enrolled in the early access program. The hands-on experience of this new feature at CES was surprisingly intuitive and even allowed for the correction of typos with a simple swipe.
Furthermore, Meta has also introduced a teleprompter feature that lets users beam text into their glasses' display. Users can copy and paste up to 16,000 characters, which is roughly half an hour's worth of speech. While this may not be exactly how traditional teleprompters work, the company initially tested a scrolling version but opted for manual control instead.
The new update has been seen as a step towards making its display glasses more appealing to users, with many people expressing preference for the manual swipe-through approach over an automatically scrolling feature.
