With an upgrade, Meta has enabled video calls over WhatsApp on its Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses. To further enhance the usefulness of the glasses, Meta is also incorporating new functionality, such as updates to Meta AI. The company is also adding new styles designed to fit more face shapes for the smart glasses.
From now onwards it will be possible for users to make video calls using the well-known messaging applications Messenger and WhatsApp on their Ray-Ban smart glasses. In addition, the firm has also enabled Meta AI with Vision, so you can ask your glasses about what you’re seeing and get helpful information.
While announcing the update Meta said, “Our second-generation smart glasses, in partnership with EssilorLuxottica, have been flying off the shelves — they’re selling out faster than we can make them. And just in time for sunglasses season, we’re expanding the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses collection with new styles designed to fit more face shapes so you can find the perfect pair. We’re also adding new features, including updates to Meta AI, to make the glasses even more useful.”

This update is being rolled out gradually and will arrive soon on your smart glasses. Additionally, Meta AI, an intelligent assistant has been upgraded allowing users to create and connect with the people and things in the US and Canada. With the help of voice commands, you may operate the glasses and even obtain real-time information because of Meta AI.
Meta is also releasing a multimodal AI update in the US and Canada in beta, so you can ask your glasses about what you’re seeing, and they’ll give you smart, helpful answers or suggestions.
New designs of Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses are being added to the collection by Meta. Its new Skyler frames feature a cat eye design inspired by the iconic jet-set style, designed to suit smaller faces. The company has also brought a new low bridge option for our Headliner frames. This would be helpful if your glasses tend to slide down your nose, sit too low on your face or press on your cheeks.
