Leak Indicates Imminent Launch of Meta’s Smart Glasses with Display and Wrist-Worn Controller

Sure! Here’s a rewritten version:

So, Meta’s been up to their tech tricks again. They just dropped these smart glasses – Oakley something-or-other in cahoots with EssilorLuxottica. And now, get this, a data digger going by ‘Luna’ has leaked a bunch of pics showing what could be the next big thing in glasses, complete with a screen and this funky wrist gadget. Yeah, it sounds wild, right?

Okay, so back in January, this Bloomberg guy, Mark Gurman, had the lowdown on two new Meta spectacles. One set was like all sporty courtesy of Oakley – they’ve confirmed that, for real – and the other, some luxe pair they’re calling ‘Hypernova’. It’s got a screen embedded right in there and uses something called EMG for gesture control with a wristband. Freaky, huh?

Gurman’s scoop said Hypernova’s due out this year with a price that’ll make your wallet cry, somewhere between $1,000 and $1,400. Now, thanks to Luna’s snooping around, there are rumors we’re nearing a launch. She’s shared what’s supposed to be snapshots and clips of Meta Hypernova and its wrist contraption, dubbed ‘Ceres’, all over their social feeds.

Oh, and Luna’s digging didn’t stop there. In the software whirlpools of Meta’s recent updates, she sniffed out hints pointing to a new name: ‘Meta Celeste’. Honestly, if that sticks, it sounds like Meta’s doing this one solo. None of that branding buddy-buddy like with Ray-Ban or Oakley. ‘Celeste’ isn’t a thing in the conglomerate’s lineup, or so they say.

Now, remember those Orion AR glasses Meta was teasing? Yep, similar story here. The whole hand-twitching EMG magic – like pinching and stuff for navigating through menus – can’t be topped by voice or touch. Apparently, the new device is eerily similar but in fresh tutorials. Same but different, right? Weird.

Oh, and get ready for this nugget from Luna’s cache: a little game called ‘Hypertrail’. Picture Galaga but with a twist, using the controller and screen to somehow play with where you are. Don’t ask me how exactly, but Luna seems convinced that’s the case.

Anyway, seems like Luna’s gonna keep this intel train rolling. We’ll have to watch out for whatever comes next. Exciting times or what?
