More news about the Meta Hypernova mixed reality (MR) smart glasses leaked this morning, with it now set to launch at Meta Connect next month, according to a CNBC report. Connect is Meta's event where it often shows off new features and hardware that has been developed, making it the perfect stage to launch the successor to the Ray-Ban Meta.
The Hypernova design has previously been leaked, with it being developed under the name Meta Celeste. It comes with an electromyography (EMG) wristband that allows for control with just your thoughts as it reads signals sent by the brain.
Two cameras are placed on the sides of the frame, with a module for a waveguide device that projects images onto the glasses for the MR experience also placed on the temples of the glasses.
With its launch next month, Meta is looking to ensure they can stay ahead of the AI-enabled smart glasses market. Google, Samsung and Apple are all set to launch their smart glasses. Google and Samsung will only launch Android XR smart glasses early next year.
