Meta is reportedly working on a version of its smart glasses that would not include a camera, according to Decrypt. The proposed design could address a major privacy concern surrounding AI-enabled wearable devices, which can capture images and interact with users in public settings. Meta’s existing smart-glasses strategy has drawn attention partly because of the technology’s potential to combine hands-free computing with artificial intelligence. A camera-free model would represent a different approach, potentially reducing concerns from people who object to being recorded by connected eyewear. The report does not provide details on a launch timeline, pricing, technical specifications or whether Meta has confirmed the development. For investors tracking META, the reported product direction highlights the company’s continued focus on wearable technology and AI as part of its broader hardware strategy.
