\"First<\/p>\n

Meta<\/a> CEO Mark Zuckerberg<\/a> is continuing his metaverse while simultaneously pushing forward on AI agents.<\/p>\n

At Meta Connect<\/a>, the Facebook co-founder revealed on Wednesday the Meta VR Glasses, a smaller and slimmer device compared to the company’s older Quest-branded family of VR headsets, and a handheld device called the Muse Charm that works with the company’s recently released Muse AI personal agent<\/a>. He revealed the products while speaking on stage at the annual Connect conference<\/a> for developers.<\/p>\n

Zuckerberg shared few details about what Muse Charm can do, only to say that people will be able to speak to the gadget to interact with their Meta AI agents “without having to unlock a phone or open an app.” He didn’t say how much it would cost, but said that Meta needs to “finalize laying out the components” and is “planning to have this ready to ship in time for the holidays in December.”<\/p>\n

“We’ve packed a lot of technology with this little guy,” Zuckerberg said. “So, if you’re not wearing glasses, this is going to be by far the fastest way to talk to your Muse and to show it what’s going on around you.”<\/p>\n

The Meta VR Glasses are slimmer and lighter than the company’s older Quest-branded VR headsets, but they are also more expensive, costing $1,299 when they go on sale in spring 2027. They represent Meta’s first VR device since 2024, when the company debuted<\/a> the $299 Quest 3S.<\/p>\n

The Meta VR Glasses are powered by an external puck that houses a Qualcomm<\/a> processor and battery, allowing it to function as a mini-computer that also helps reduce the glasses’ overall weight and size. The glasses are able to display better visuals than the older Quest headset, and contain sensors that track users’ eyes and hand movements, which reduces the need to use controllers to interact with the device.<\/p>\n

“We have built a new kind of VR device that delivers the same magical feeling of presence and immersion, high-resolution displays and views of the world around you in a form factor that is a pair of glasses for the first time,” Zuckerberg said.<\/p>\n

WATCH: Meta’s Muse AI is ‘living up to the hype.’<\/a><\/p>\n
