A nerdy dive into Meta’s Orion glasses.

We gave a brief overview of the components that make up the prototype AR glasses in our Orion hands-on, but Meta just released a series of blogs that go deep. I mean real deep into why they picked silicon carbide, as well as the tech in its custom silicon chips and compute pucks. There’s also some neat photos, especially in the blog on the silicon chips, that give you a good sense of all the tech in those glasses.

Close up of Meta Orion prototype that’s clear so you can see the internal components.
There’s a lot of tech crammed in there.
