Meta Leak Hints at Imminent Launch of Smart Glasses with Display and Wrist-Worn Controller

Whoa, okay. So, Meta’s got something cooking with Oakley. Not just your run-of-the-mill shades either, but smart glasses! Yeah, those ones by EssilorLuxottica. But here’s where it gets juicy. Enter Luna, the notorious data whiz slash leaker. They’ve snuck out images — pretty wild stuff — of what seems like Meta’s next big toy: glasses with a display and, get this, a wrist controller. Like, what? Seriously.

And then there’s Gurman, that Bloomberg guy who’s kinda always got the scoop. He hinted ages ago about Meta working on some techy eyewear — sporty Oakley ones (already confirmed, duh) and the snazzy ‘Hypernova’. That one’s allegedly got some funky display and wrist magic via an EMG controller. Price guess? Between $1,000 to $1,400. Yikes, right? But since Luna’s been dropping images and tutorials left, right, and center, you’ve gotta wonder — is the launch super close?

Luna plastered a ton of visuals on X. Yep, the platform formerly known as Twitter. Seems like Meta Hypernova, plus its nifty wristband, code-named ‘Ceres’ — that’s the hot topic. Oh, so the glasses might be called ‘Meta Celeste’. That’s a name, huh? Anyway, it doesn’t scream Ray-Ban or Oakley. Feels like Meta’s going solo on this gig.

Remember when Meta tested the waters with that Orion AR glasses prototype? Same EMG tech for gestures — you know, pinching, rotating. Super advanced, considering touch and voice inputs can be clunky. Saw a device looking awfully familiar, despite some new tutorial vibes.

Luna’s latest stash includes some tutorial text too. Imagine, you’re controlling glasses by hand gestures — the band buzzes when it catches one. It’s like magic. Luna totally painted the picture: tap your thumb and index finger. Presto!

Oh, and did I mention a mini-game called ‘Hypertrail’? It’s allegedly tucked into the Hypernova system. Think of it as a Galaga homage. Reckons it uses where you are physically, somehow.

Anyway — no, wait. More tidbits and footage are bound to spill from Luna. Stay tuned, because who knows what’s dropping next.
