(Image credit - Meta) Meta has been innovating in both hardware and social media spaces in recent years. A new report from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reveals Meta’s ambitious plans for augmented reality (AR) glasses. According to sources cited by Gurman, Meta is working on at least three new smart glasses models and progressing toward its first true AR glasses, which could arrive as early as 2027. Here’s what’s in the pipeline. Supernova and Supernova 2 - Meta’s existing smart glasses made in partnership with Ray-Ban, will expand to new markets. The Supernova 2 will be inspired by Oakley’s Sphaera glasses and target cyclists and athletes with a central camera design. Brands like Luxottica Group will also apply Meta’s tech. Hypernova - This advanced model will offer simple software apps, notifications, and photo displays, moving closer to a full AR experience. Expected to cost around $1,000, it highlights Meta’s push toward premium features. Artemis (2027) - Meta plans to release its first true AR glasses under the codename Artemis. These glasses will be lighter and more advanced than the earlier Orion prototype, which is not expected to see a commercial release. Other hardware developments include: Wrist Controllers - Meta is exploring a wrist strap to control smart glasses, a shift from the current temple-based controls. Camerabuds - Meta continues to develop earbuds with cameras to rival Apple’s AirPods, although these remain in early stages due to development challenges.
