Meta Introduces Muse AI Assistant for Smart Glasses
Meta announced at its Connect 2026 event that a personal AI assistant called Muse will be added to its smart glasses. Activated by voice command, the assistant will carry out tasks on its own and operate in the background. Muse will be able to schedule meetings, check flight prices, provide guidance during workouts and log meals. It will also find products the user sees. The feature will be rolled out in the coming months.
Muse currently works in iOS, Android and Mac apps, as well as within WhatsApp. Before purchases and other sensitive transactions, the assistant asks the user for permission. Access granted to external services can be revoked at any time. A digital avatar that speaks in real time has also been developed for the agent, which is powered by the Muse Spark model. Users will be able to customize the avatar's appearance. The company also unveiled its first camera-free smart glasses, the Ray-Ban Meta Audio. The glasses can be used to listen to music and podcasts, make calls, use live translation and access the Muse assistant. Pricing will start at $349 (about 590 manats). The model will go on sale on October 13. The Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 3) has a slimmer frame and runs for up to 9 hours on a single charge. The model also includes a button that users can assign to their preferred function. The glasses have a 12 MP camera and record video in 3K quality. Pricing starts at $449 (about 760 manats). The new Meta VR Glasses weigh about 100 g and have a compact design resembling ordinary glasses. The device features a 5K display made with micro-OLED panels. The glasses track eye and hand movements and include a built-in Meta AI assistant. The computing system, battery and storage are housed in a separate module carried in the user's pocket. The IMAX Enhanced-certified device will go on sale in spring 2027. It will cost $1,299.99 (about 2,210 manats).
Meta also demonstrated a feature that displays a person's facial expressions during video calls as a realistic-looking hologram. This feature will later be added to the Meta Ray-Ban Display model and WhatsApp calls. The glasses lineup includes Capri, Nova, LISA and the limited-edition Fury. New color options will also be available. The least expensive model in the lineup, the Meta Adventurer, will sell for $249 (about 420 manats). The palm-sized Muse Charm is a standalone device designed for the agent and will go on sale in December. The Muse character will appear on an approximately 2-inch OLED screen. Users will be able to change its appearance, clothing and voice. The device has front and rear cameras, a microphone, a speaker, 5G connectivity and a USB-C port. The cameras will primarily help the agent understand its surroundings. Two nearby devices will also recognize each other. The price has not been announced, but it is expected to be close to the price of smartwatches. Muse will control apps on the Mac and continue assigned tasks in the background. The agent will have its own email address and can be added to email threads. Integrations with Shopify, Stripe, Shop Pay and PayPal have been created for purchases. Best Buy, Walmart, Sephora, Expedia and other services will also be connected to the system. The platform opened for developers to create new integrations received more than 1,500 applications in less than 1 week.
