👉👉👉 Meta is planning mixed reality glasses they’re calling ‘Puffin’ — Report

Meta Platforms is reportedly developing a new, sleek pair of mixed-reality glasses, potentially replacing its bulkier previous models. Codenamed “Puffin,” these glasses are expected to launch by 2027, according to a report from The Information on August 27.

The Puffin glasses will be significantly smaller than Meta’s current Quest headsets and won’t require handheld controllers. Instead, users will operate them using hand gestures and eye movements, similar to features found in the Apple Vision Pro, a competing mixed-reality headset.

Unlike the $3,500 Apple Vision Pro, Puffin is anticipated to be more affordable and compact, potentially appealing to a broader audience. Mixed reality headsets blend the real world with virtual elements, enabling interaction with both digital and physical objects.

This news follows Mark #Zuckerberg ’s recent comments about the next-generation mixed-reality product, which he described as resembling smart glasses with holographic displays, cameras, microphones, and speakers. These glasses are intended to bridge the gap between Meta’s Ray-Ban Meta, which lacks a display, and bulkier VR headsets.

Zuckerberg envisions these glasses as having a full field of view (FOV) holographic display for real-time communication, informational overlays, and heads-up displays, all while being as slim as traditional glasses.

Meanwhile, Meta’s Reality Labs division has been investing heavily in R&D, spending over $59.9 billion since its founding in 2019. Despite posting $353 million in sales revenue for Q2, the division continues to face significant losses. However, Meta’s CFO, Susan Li, expects these losses to decrease substantially with upcoming product releases.
