For Visual Storytellers and Content Creators
Just an average pair of sunglasses, right? Not these specs. Ray-Ban’s Stories were developed in partnership with Meta to capture images and video in addition to doubling as Bluetooth headphones, with both voice and touch control options.
Stories’ dual 5MP cameras allow you to take hands-free, high-quality photos and videos with clear sound from the frame’s three built-in microphones. Then import, edit, and share your content with the Facebook View app. You can also take calls, catchup on your favorite podcast, or get in the zone with your work-out playlist using Stories’ discrete open-ear speakers.
And if you’re worried about finding a pair to fit your style – don’t. You have your pick of three different Ray-Ban frames, five frame colors, and six different types of lenses.
Meta isn’t the only social media company diving into the smart eyewear world. Snapchat’s Snap Spectacles 3 features two HD cameras and four microphones.
Inspired by the human eye, the lenses sit on the two top corners of the frame for depth perception, capturing clear, colorful photos and videos from slightly different angles that combine to create a three-dimensional effect. When you’re ready to share your content, connect Spectacles to your phone via Bluetooth to instantly upload and edit on your Snapchat app.
The unique round lens, stainless-steel frames are light weight, yet sturdy, and come in two color options: black or rose gold finish.
