Ray-Ban has teamed up with Facebook to create a line of smart glasses that will help wearers’ easily share their experiences on social media. The line of Ray-Ban Stories smart glasses are built around some of the brand’s most iconic silhouettes, including Wayfarer, and they come equipped with 5MP cameras that offer hands-free photo and video capture. The cameras take 2592×1944 stills and 1184×1184 video at 30 fps. Wearers can control the glasses through embedded touch controls in the temple and Facebook Voice Assistant, while two open-ear speakers and three microphones allow you to listen to audio and chat on the phone. The glasses sync to the new Facebook View app through both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. Available lenses include blue-light-blocking clear, Transitions, and a variety of sunglass shades, all of which have the option to be made into prescription lenses. Ray-Ban Stories glasses are available now starting at $299.
