Alex Heath from The Verge joins The Vergecast to share his hands-on experience with Meta's secretive smart glasses codenamed Orion. He details his time playing Pong with Mark Zuckerberg, making smoothies, and more, offering a unique look at the future of AR technology.
You can’t buy Meta ’s most impressive new product, the smart glasses codenamed Orion . You might be able to buy something sort of like them a few years from now, but most of us will never get to so much as wear them. That doesn’t necessarily make them less impressive, though, or less important. Orion is a statement of purpose from Meta : that AR glasses really are the future and that we’re eventually going to get there.
Then it’s time for a lightning round in which we talk about that new Jony Ive profile, pixel-peep the PS5 Pro, praise Google’s remarkable recent gadget run, and wonder exactly how many people are still using their Rabbit R1. It’s a lot of AI gadgets today.
