Orion is the first fully holographic augmented reality glasses in history, Mr. Zuckerberg said. The device is the result of ten years of research and development; The goal of the project is to miniaturize computing components to project a holographic image on top of a real picture. When asked about the significance of the gadget, Zuckerberg replied that we are talking about a new large computing platform.

«I think the trend in computing is that it’s becoming more ubiquitous, more natural, and just more social; I want to be able to interact with people in the world around me, and I think this will probably be the next big platform after phones,” Mark Zuckerberg said. Orion augmented reality glasses are still at the prototype stage, but their next version has a chance to become a consumer product available to a wide audience, the head of Meta✴ is sure.

The device was unveiled at the Meta✴ Connect 2024 event last week. Analysts have been favorable to Orion and expressed support for the company’s plans – it was criticized in 2022, but Mark Zuckerberg said he is still focused on the same long-term plan. “You’re not as good as they say when you’re up and as bad as they say when you’re down,” he concluded.
