from the shadows of the metaverse to the future of ar glasses: meta’s “orion” exploration

orion, meta’s latest ar glasses, is a representative work in this direction. it has a 70-degree field of view, and the micro led projector supports real-time holographic image projection. like ray-ban meta glasses, orion also has powerful ai capabilities, including newly added image recognition and language interaction functions.

reality and virtuality intertwined

meta demonstrated the application scenarios of orion at the scene, such as the ar version of messenger’s video call, which presented the holographic projection video call experience as if the other party was standing next to you. this technology blends the real world with the virtual world to make the user experience more realistic.

the orion's real value, though, is its lightweight design and powerful computing power. it can realize the free interaction mode of "leaving your mobile phone at home" and get rid of the dependence on traditional mobile phones. meta believes that orion represents the final form of ar glasses and will mark a new upgrade of smart devices.

challenges and opportunities

the emergence of orion also brings new challenges and opportunities. its high hardware cost exceeds $10,000, making it difficult to popularize. in addition, its battery life is only 2 hours, which limits the freedom of the "virtual world". despite this, the emergence of orion still opens a new stage in the development of ar glasses.

zuckerberg emphasized that the development of ar glasses is a step-by-step process, first achieving faster popularization through artificial intelligence glasses without displays, and then gradually popularizing glasses with small displays. his idea is that end users will no longer need mobile phones, but rely on ar glasses to directly interact with ai and experience a more free interaction method.

future outlook

meta's orion may not have fully achieved its "final form," but it has shown us the potential of ar glasses. with the development of technology, ar glasses will change our understanding of the virtual world and the real world. perhaps, eventually, we will find that the "virtual world" has been integrated into our lives and is no longer a dream of the "metaverse".
