Meta Develops Neural Interface for Orion AR Glasses

Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, said at the Meta Connect 2024 conference that the company is working on a “neural interface” that will let people handle the prototype Orion AR glasses

The user interface appears to have drawn inspiration from products made by CTRL-Labs, a brain-machine interface company that Meta acquired in 2019. It is a wearable that you put on your wrist. People who wear the wristband-like accessory can use gestures to move between apps on their paired Orion glasses.

Zuckerberg states, “Orion is the first wrist-worn device that runs on our neural interface.” “[This] gadget just lets you send a message from your mind to Orion.”

Alex Heath of The Verge says that the wristband will come out soon and work with Meta’s other AR gear. The price has not been released yet.

The Orion glasses from Meta are real AR, even though they are still just an idea at this point. Orion makes a heads-up display with tiny projectors built into the frames of the glasses.
