New device lacks spy equipment

The company is developing a pair called Luna that does not include the camera system found in previous versions. This new model will feature six built-in microphones to allow users to talk to an AI chatbot. A button on the side of the frames activates the artificial intelligence agent when pressed.

Launch timing and location

Reports indicate the product may be unveiled during Meta Connect, which takes place next week in Menlo Park. The Information outlet noted that the company is moving forward with this version despite earlier complaints about privacy concerns.
