The article, shortened and in plain language
Meta is renewing its quest to make virtual reality a thing. At Connect on Wednesday, the company announced Meta VR Glasses, its newest entry into the VR market.
The company says that the glasses are five times lighter than the Meta Quest 3 — and they look much more like normal glasses than the bulky headsets that Meta before released. Made of magnesium alloy, the glasses are powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Reality Elite processor. A user can just slip the puck into their pocket, which allows the glasses to be used on the go.
The glasses are entertainment-focused and come with micro-OLED panels built into the lenses, which provide a 5K Infinite Display with 37 pixels per degree, as well as Dolby Vision and support for Dolby Atmos audio.
Meta says that it has teamed up with Disney and that, in November, Disney+ users will be able to stream specific movies in 3D.
Meta says the glasses will be available next spring with a starting price of $1299.99.
