Meta’s Luna AI Glasses Could Be the $299 Model’s Camera-Free Alternative
AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication
Meta is preparing a new version of its smart glasses, internally codenamed Luna, that will omit the outward‑facing camera while retaining microphones, directional speakers and built‑in Meta AI powered by Muse Spark. The device is expected to launch in two frame styles, Clubmaster and Burbank, and ship in October if unveiled at the Meta Connect 2026 event on September 23. Priced at the same $299 entry point as the current Meta Glasses developed with EssilorLuxottica, Luna aims to address growing privacy concerns surrounding camera‑equipped wearables. The glasses will feature six microphones, a side button for AI activation and audio that directs sound toward the wearer’s ears. Meta has not confirmed specifications, launch date or final price or availability timeline yet.
💡 Why It Matters
- · Removing the camera lets Meta market Luna as a privacy‑first AI accessory, likely expanding appeal among users wary of constant visual surveillance.
