Meta plans camera-free Luna smart glasses for fall launch, The Information reports

Meta is preparing to launch a camera-free pair of smart glasses, code-named Luna, this fall, according to The Information. The device features six microphones and a side button for activating Meta AI, and could be unveiled at the Connect conference next week.

Meta plans to release a camera-free pair of smart glasses, internally code-named Luna, this fall, following growing scrutiny of smart glasses over their recording capabilities, The Information reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.

The new glasses model has six built-in microphones that allow users to speak with Meta's AI chatbot and Muse, the company's newly launched consumer AI agent, the report said. Luna also has a button on the side that can be used to quickly activate Meta AI, and speakers that are similar to the ones in the current models, The Information added.

Meta could unveil the glasses at its annual Connect developer conference next Wednesday and Thursday, and is targeting October for shipments, according to the report. Meta did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
