Meta and Oakley have partnered to create new glasses that utilize artificial intelligence to serve users while they serve looks.
The tech giant and the sports equipment chain unveiled their new Oakley Meta HSTN on June 20, allowing users to access assistive technology without laying a hand.
With a built-in camera and open-ear speakers, the water-resistant frames will allow users to listen to a podcast, stream their favorite playlist or record a day in their life in Ultra HD (3K) footage, according to Meta. With the use of AI, users can ask Meta questions regarding weather, restaurants, culture or more.
A video trailer shared by the two companies shows that users can ask "Hey Meta, how strong is the wind today?" or say "Hey Meta, take a video" to get immediate assistance.
"Together with Meta, we are setting new bounds of reality," Oakley Global President Caio Amato said in a news release. "It is not only about pushing forward performance, but also about amplifying human potential as never before. And this is just the first chapter of a new era for sports."
