Meta unveiled its Orion AR glasses at its Connect conference, focusing on size and comfort, not flashy graphics. CNBC's Julia Boorstin praised their lightweight design, making them less cumbersome than VR headsets. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg described Orion as a glimpse of the future. The Orion glasses demonstrated the ability to identify real-world food ingredients, project a digital recipe, and overlay video game graphics onto physical surfaces. In another demo, a 3D video call with her producer appeared so realistic that Boorstin was unsure whether he could see her.
