- The Meta Gen 2 Gen 2 glasses are on their way
- They bring some important battery and sensor updates
- These updates could cause improvements for target consumer specifications
Meta has just launched new intelligent glasses: Aria Gen 2. The bad news is that it will probably not get a couple unless he is an AI or robotics researcher, but the good news is the updates that the glasses boast could cause updates that we can expect to see from their specifications of next -generation consumers that are rumored that they will land this year, and the versions of the consumers of their consumers. At least, that’s what I hope.
Aria is the line of AI glasses centered on the target researcher used by researchers to help them improve their own hardware and software development, with glasses equipped with all kinds of sensors that lack the specifications of the target consumer. Aria Gen 2 has eye tracking cameras, a barometer, a PPG sensor to measure heart rate and a contact microphone to distinguish the user’s voice from that of spectators, to name just a few.
The PPG and the contact microphone are new in ARIA Gen 2, and are two sensors that I could see the next generation consumer specifications adopting. Ray-Ban glasses are already very good to collect when I am talking to them: I was on vacation with them recently and even in a space full of people with a crowd around me, they could collect and answer my questions about the Colosseum of Rome, but even a better voice detection would not be a bad thing
Meanwhile, a heart rate sensor would be an ideal inclusion in the rumored Oakley smart glasses that is said to be doing, that they are aimed at athletes. The existing goal specifications do not seem focused on the super athlete in terms of hardware or software, and this would be an immediate remedy for that issue.
A great battery boost
Leaving the sensors aside, the greatest benefit of Aria Gen 2 is that the glasses are apparently capable of six to eight hours of continuous use, which is at least four times longer than the approximately an hour and a half that could expect from Aria Gen 1.
I do not expect the same degree of improvements in the battery life of the specifications of the goal consumer (partly because the Aria design is typically more voluminous, which allows a function on the fashion approach, such as the largest heavier batteries), but even some of the improvements of the Aryan battery can reach the other goal glasses, then that would relieve my concerns about their goal filtered.
The current model without screen only lasts approximately three hours of use, and I could see that the screen equipped with screen is exhausted much faster. But with some battery updates taken from ARIA Gen 2, the new goals with a screen could maintain the battery life of three hours to which we have become accustomed.
Finally, Meta affirms that their Aria lenses are packed with the best open -ears force speakers. The striped goal can filter a good amount of audio, so an improved design would be excellent for privacy, and the best speakers in general would make more capable headphones alternatives.
We will have to wait and see what it has to be reserved for us if its next launch of smart glasses. Of course, there is no guarantee that any of these Aria updates reach the specifications of the goal consumer, but I will cross my fingers that in the goal Connect 2025 in September we will see at least one couple that goes to new smart glasses.
