◆ Improved AI functions
Ray-Ban Meta is available with the AI assistant ' Meta AI ', which will evolve to make it easier to use. Previously, you had to say 'Hey Meta' every time you wanted to talk to Meta AI, but after the update, you can talk to Meta AI without the wake word 'Hey Meta' in subsequent conversations by saying 'Hey Meta' once.

Also, if you wanted to ask Meta AI about what you were looking at , you previously had to say 'look,' but after the update this will no longer be necessary.



In addition, Ray-Ban Meta will have a feature that allows you to record where you parked your car in parking lots at airports, shopping centers, and other locations.

Meta AI also now lets you record and send voice messages on messaging apps like WhatsApp and Messenger, which is useful when your hands are full or you don't have easy access to your phone to type text.

As you explore a new city, you can ask the Meta AI about landmarks you see, get ideas for what to see next, and even create your own personalized walking tour, hands-free.

Elsewhere, if you're at the grocery store trying to plan a meal, you can ask Meta AI to help you decide what to make based on what you see as you walk down the aisle and whether the sauce you have on hand would pair well with a suggested recipe.

Additionally, Ray-Ban Meta will add real-time voice translation functionality in English, Spanish, French, and Italian, with support for more languages planned in the future.

◆ Expanding partnerships
Ray-Ban Meta has partnered with

Be My Eyes , an app that connects blind and low vision people with sighted volunteers. The volunteers can use video footage captured by the Ray-Ban Meta to describe what the user sees and update them on their surroundings.

Additionally, Meta has expanded its integration with music streaming services Spotify and Amazon Music, and announced new partnerships with Audible and iHeart, bringing a range of music services to Ray-Ban Meta.

◆Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer
Additionally, the limited edition Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer will be available, featuring a skeleton frame and Essilorluxottica 's new UltraTransitions® GEN S lens series, which allows the glasses to quickly adapt to any light condition.
