JAKARTA - Meta decided not to sell the first version of its full AR glasses codenamed Orion globally. Instead, Meta will distribute it to developers only.
The company originally planned to launch the first version of its AR glasses, codenamed Project Nazare, in 2024. However, employees were told that Meta no longer plans to commercially release AR glasses due to efforts to cut.
The person said that the first version of these AR glasses has been in development for three years, and as of now, company executives have not decided whether to sell them widely or not. Employees who work in the Meta Reality Labs division that builds VR and AR hardware were notified of the decision this week, according to The Information.
Quoting from The Verge, the executive's decision not to sell the first version online was because the device cost thousands of dollars to build, and the executive believed the screen brightness wasn't ready for consumers.
Meanwhile, version two of the Meta AR glasses, codenamed Artemis, remains on track for consumer release at higher production volumes with a less bulky design and more advanced display technology, as early as next year.
Earlier in the Google I/O '22 event, it was discovered that the AR Meta glasses would be able to translate conversations from English to Spanish.
On the other hand, Meta still hasn't responded to a request from TechCrunch for comment regarding the news. This report comes after it was revealed that Meta also canceled the first version of its planned smartwatch with a camera.
