Meta's Handwriting Feature Makes Texting More Discreet with Ray-Ban Display Glasses
At CES, Meta showcased its latest updates for the display-enabled smart glasses it launched last year. Among these, the company is now rolling out a handwriting feature that lets users send custom messages and replies by tracing letters with their hands. For those enrolled in the early access program, this new functionality can already be experienced.
The author tested this feature at CES and was impressed by how intuitive it felt to write messages on a table surface using the glasses. Despite some initial misreadings of characters, the process turned out surprisingly smooth. Users can even correct typos by swiping from left or right on the displayed text.
Furthermore, Meta announced a new teleprompter feature that allows users to beam pre-copied texts into their glasses' display for public use. This functionality has been adjusted to better suit user preferences, as originally it was intended to have an automated scrolling feature but was later deemed less effective due to its impact on the user experience.
These updates are part of a broader effort by Meta to continually enhance and refine its smart glasses technology. As with any product, ongoing support is key to keeping users engaged and interested in utilizing their features fully.
The rollout of these new features marks an exciting development for Meta's display-enabled smart glasses, bringing them one step closer to establishing themselves as more than just a novelty device but rather an essential tool for everyday communication on-the-go.
