Meta has presented its prototype of Orion AR glasses, with silicon carbide lenses and micro LED projectors in the frame

Goal has just announced its new model of glasses for virtual and mixed reality, the Quest 3Sa renewed model that offers better price than the Quest 3 retaining some of its features such as the processor Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2. But also has presented nails New Augmented Reality glassesthe Orion Goalalthough for the moment they will stay in prototype format.

The glasses have a few Micro LED projectors inside the frame of the glasses that project the information on the lenses made of silicon carbide. This material allows for a high degree of reflectiondoes not produce optical artifacts or stray light and is very light. This type of lenses also allows for some clear crystalsallowing you to see the eyes of the person wearing them.

In order to offer a compact and quality system they have had to addressing issues such as cooling and heating of the components. For this they have used materials similar to those used by NASA for cooling satellites. Custom and specialized silicon has been built optimized to make use of your AIallowing to make a hand and eye tracking precisely, with a minimum consumption and therefore minimal warming.

For data entry, the following has been used: EMG (or electromyography), combining gestures, voice and gaze with a EMG bracelet. A new one has also been added Wireless Compute Puckwhich frees up the computing load on the glasses but connects wirelessly. Eye and hand tracking algorithms are executed on the glasses, while The logic of the applications falls on this Compute Pack.

With glasses like this you can offer a good augmented reality experience. You can make hands-free video calls, answer and view WhatsApp messages, play games, without having to take out your mobile phone.

For the moment this is a fairly faithful and real prototypeit is not an investigation, but a final model that can represent new glasses that can reach users. A model of glasses that can adapt to the needs of the future to offer a device that is within reach of users that demand this type of product.
