Meta’s Orion glasses are advanced augmented reality (AR) eyewear that overlay digital images onto your real-world view. They resemble regular glasses but can display holographic information, like maps or messages, directly in your line of sight. You control them using eye movements, hand gestures, voice commands, and a special wristband. Currently, they’re prototypes and not yet available for purchase till 2027.
Meta’s Orion AR glasses will face strong competition in the augmented reality market. Key rivals include Apple’s Vision Pro, offering premium AR experiences, Samsung’s AR glasses developed with Google, and Google’s AI-powered smart glasses. Other contenders like Magic Leap 2, focusing on enterprise applications, and Xreal Air 2 Ultra, providing immersive experiences, add to the competitive landscape. Each device brings unique features, creating a dynamic and rapidly evolving AR market.
