This holiday season, our AI glasses are truly the gifts that keep on giving — getting smarter and more useful over time. Beginning today, we’re rolling out the v21 software update to bookend an incredible year for our AI glasses. We’re introducing the ability to amplify someone’s voice during a conversation in a noisy environment, find a song on Spotify that matches what you’re looking at, and more.
Filter Out the Noise With Conversation Focus
We announced conversation focus at Connect earlier this year, which lets people hear others more easily in noisy environments, and today we’re rolling it out to those in our Early Access Program for Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta HSTN in the US and Canada.
Whether you’re eating at a busy restaurant, commuting on the train, or catching your favorite DJ’s latest set, conversation focus uses the open-ear speakers on your AI glasses to amplify the voice of the person you’re talking to. You’ll hear the amplified voice sound slightly louder, which will help you distinguish the conversation from ambient background noise so you can stay tuned into the moments that matter. You’ll also be able to easily adjust the amplification level by swiping the right temple of your glasses or through your device settings to match the volume of your environment.
Soundtrack Your World With Meta AI + Spotify
We’re introducing the first multimodal AI music experience for our Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta glasses in partnership with Spotify. Whether you’re looking at an album cover or a festive holiday scene, you can simply say, “Hey Meta, play a song to match this view.” This bridges computer vision and recognition with Spotify’s powerful personalization to create a playlist based on your unique taste, customized for that specific moment.*
If you haven’t joined the Early Access program, consider doing just that to make sure you get the latest features as soon as they’re available.
