Meta has started implementing new features for Ray-Ban and Oakley smart glasses. Early access program participants will receive updates first.

What is known

The Conversation Focus feature is designed to improve the clarity of the interlocutor's voice in noisy environments. It enhances surrounding voices, making them more distinct compared to background noise. Activation is possible with the voice command "Hey Meta, start Conversation Focus" or through a "press and hold" gesture.

Meta also adds integration with Spotify, using multimodal artificial intelligence. Users can say "Hey Meta, play a song to match this view," and the glasses will launch a playlist according to what is seen, taking into account individual musical preferences. For example, if a user is looking at festive decorations, the system might play a themed playlist.

The update is available for the first and second-generation Meta Ray-Ban glasses, as well as Oakley Meta HSTN. The new features will gradually appear for all users.
