NEW YORK — Meta Platforms is exploring making earphones powered by artificial intelligence with cameras.
A slew of companies, from startups to conglomerates including Meta, are looking to develop AI-based wearable devices to capture growing interest in the sector, Reuters reported.
The Information reported recently citing employees familiar with the matter that the Facebook-parent expects the device to identify objects and translate foreign languages, the report added.
Meta announced new generation Ray-Ban smart glasses, priced at $299, in September last year, which will also have its AI built in, with the ability to give information on the item a user is looking at.
The Instagram and WhatsApp owner did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
