Meta is working on second-generation smart glasses in collaboration with Ray-Ban. While the Meta Ray-Ban Stories first-generation model has a number of functions, including as music playback and rapid photo and video capturing, there are certain restrictions. The majority of these restrictions that you may anticipate from a "smart glass" will remain.

However, a number of creator-friendly features will be included in the second generation, which might offer these glasses an advantage over competitors.

Users will be able to launch a live stream using the second-generation Ray-Ban Stories smart glasses from Meta. Because of this capability, creators may provide viewers a better point of view (PoV). When you're at a concert or out on a walk, it can be extremely helpful. Additionally, since the live feed is done through a pair of smart glasses rather than a smartphone, it gives producers more mobility.
