They will build on the success of their Ray-Ban branded smart glasses.
EssilorLuxottica and Meta Platforms have renewed their partnership to collaborate on smart eyewear development for the next decade.
The two companies, which have worked together since 2019, will continue to build on the success of their Ray-Ban branded smart glasses, aiming to shape the future of wearable technology.
EssilorLuxottica and Meta’s collaboration has already resulted in two generations of Ray-Ban smart glasses, revolutionizing wearable tech by combining style with functionality. These glasses, widely adopted by consumers, are available in markets across the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Australia, and various European countries, including France, Germany, Italy, and Spain.
The most recent generation of Ray-Ban Meta glasses, launched in Fall 2023, features advanced technology built seamlessly into Ray-Ban’s iconic frames. These glasses allow users to make phone calls, capture and share photos and videos, listen to music, and livestream content, providing hands-free connectivity.
