Meta announced that it will bring its Muse personal AI agent to its AI glasses in the coming months, giving wearers a way to invoke the agent and have it act on objects in view rather than describing them aloud. The change is intended to make Muse available while users are away from a phone or computer, though Meta did not provide a precise release date.
Meta said Muse will be able to use visual context for requests involving items such as a product on a shelf, a flyer or a school-supplies list. A voice mode is also designed for longer conversations while the agent completes work in the background, according to the company.
The company is broadening the services Muse can connect to. Meta said it launched Muse with dozens of partners and access to the Shopify catalogue, and is adding retail connectors including Walmart, Best Buy, Gap, Sephora and Wayfair, alongside Shop Pay and PayPal payment support. Expedia is listed as coming soon for travel planning; Instacart, Notion, Granola, GitHub and Box are among the other named services. Meta also said Muse will receive its own email address, which it can use for tasks or as another channel for users to communicate with the agent.
Meta separately outlined Muse Charm, a pocket-sized device for interacting with Muse that uses what the company calls a state-of-the-art real-time voice model. The company said it will share more later this year, without giving availability or pricing details.
Beyond Muse, Meta introduced Meta VR Glasses, which it says weigh about 100 grams and are designed for immersive media, work and games while preserving awareness of surroundings. Meta said the device is the first IMAX Enhanced-certified VR device and will support select films in IMAX’s expanded aspect ratio at home. The company also says it is working with media partners and plans more than 100 immersive live sports events each year; those availability and content claims are Meta’s stated plans.
Meta also introduced Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses and announced Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 3), which it says has a slimmer design, longer battery life and a customizable action button for Meta AI. For supported AI glasses, Meta said an FDA-cleared hearing-enhancement software feature for adults with perceived mild to moderate hearing loss will launch in the US later this year for $149.99, with HSA/FSA eligibility subject to a user’s plan, or through a Meta One subscription.
Updates to Meta Ray-Ban Display include hands-free navigation, a personalized hologram for video calls and Dolby Atmos capture with spatial surround sound, Meta said. The company also plans online ordering and availability expansions to the UK, Canada, France, Italy and Germany. Meta said it expects to offer more than 100 AI-glasses options by the end of the year.
