Though users will be able to get notifications from Meta's AI assistant as soon as 2025, it may 'be years' until Meta starts offering a full augmented reality experience like Apple's Vision Pro.

The upcoming Ray-Ban smart glasses will reportedly feature similar 'in-lens' displays as Meta's Orion prototype for augmented reality experiences.

Market research indicates that consumer demand for smart glasses has grown by 150% year-over-year, with particular interest in features that blend style with functionality. Meta’s partnership with Ray-Ban has been crucial in addressing the fashion concerns that previously limited widespread adoption of smart eyewear.
