A couple of years ago, it was reported that Facebook is developing its own “smart” glasses. Now the company has confirmed that the gadget will be presented at the end of this year.
The augmented reality glasses will be developed in conjunction with the popular Ray-Ban glasses brand Luxottica. But, according to Facebook CFO David Wehner, the company had to ditch some planned features, so the glasses won’t come close to what the manufacturer ultimately wants to achieve.
“The first product that we will have in this area, I outline expectations, will not even come close to what we want in the end”.

What functions the new product will be deprived of is still unknown. But Facebook continues to actively develop the project, so, perhaps, it will carry out everything conceived in future models of glasses.
But at least we already know the release date of the gadget – until the end of 2021.
