Meta AR Glasses on the Horizon
Meta, formerly known as Facebook, marked the tenth anniversary of its Reality Labs division with a reflective look at its journey from the pioneering Oculus Rift to the advanced Meta Quest Pro and the stylish Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses. This milestone served as an opportunity for the company not only to celebrate past achievements but also to tease its future endeavors in augmented reality (AR) technology. Meta AR Glasses seem to be on the Horizon
In a recent blog post, Meta hinted at its next significant project under Reality Labs—a fully realized pair of AR glasses. This new development promises to blend the immersive capabilities of the Quest devices with the practical applications of the Meta AI integrated within the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses. The blog post detailed that these upcoming AR glasses aim to offer the “best of both worlds” by merging the utility of mixed reality experiences with seamless interaction between the digital and physical realms.

Meta’s blog post elaborated on the role these AR glasses will play within the broader ecosystem of extended reality (XR) devices. Echoing the coexistence of smartphones and computers, Meta emphasized that the introduction of AR glasses does not signal the end for mixed-reality headsets. Instead, the company envisions these technologies complementing each other, contributing to a diversified array of devices that together form the foundation of future digital interaction.
While Meta has not set a specific release date for these AR glasses, industry speculation and hints from within the company suggest significant advancements are on the near horizon. Reports from sources like The Verge and Business Insider indicate that Meta aims to introduce a display-equipped version of the glasses by 2025, with a more comprehensive AR solution expected by 2027. Moreover, there are indications that these highly anticipated AR glasses, reportedly codenamed ‘Orion’, could be unveiled at the forthcoming Meta Connect conference, typically held in October.t
The development of AR glasses by Meta represents a strategic move in the evolving landscape of consumer electronics, where augmented reality is expected to play a pivotal role. By integrating advanced AR capabilities into accessible consumer devices, Meta is positioning itself at the forefront of the next wave of technological innovation. These glasses are not merely a continuation of Meta’s existing product line but a significant leap toward realizing a fully integrated digital-physical world.
As Meta continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in AR technology, the industry watches closely. The potential for AR glasses to transform everyday experiences and interactions is immense, promising not only to enhance personal connectivity and entertainment but also to revolutionize professional fields like education, design, and manufacturing. As Meta prepares to unveil these glasses, the anticipation builds not just for a new product but for the next chapter in how we experience and interact with the world around us.
Stay tuned as we await further details from Meta on this exciting development, which is poised to redefine the landscape of augmented reality and consumer technology.
