Inside Meta’s Connect 2025 Event with Robert Scoble

Explore the future of spatial computing with Meta’s new AI-enabled smart glasses and neural armband. Discover how waveguide displays, brain-sensing wearables, and real-world augmented reality are shaping the next decade.

Steven Scott chats with Robert Scoble to dive into the breakthrough technology behind Meta’s latest consumer AR glasses and their companion neural armband. These lightweight, waveguide-powered glasses offer a 30-degree colour display, integrated camera, microphone, and speaker capabilities—bringing heads-up information and AI assistance into everyday life.

The discussion covers the evolution from early Google Glass to today’s consumer-ready devices, the role of wearable AI in guiding tasks like cooking or navigating theme parks, and the significance of real-time environmental recognition. Scoble also unpacks the armband’s futuristic abilities, from reading micro-electric signals in your fingers to 3D hand tracking and heart-rate monitoring.

They explore live tech event challenges, the massive drop in cost from military-grade HUDs to $800 consumer devices, and what the next 10 years of spatial computing could look like—including 90-degree waveguide displays, AI-driven holodecks, brain-computer interfaces, and fully autonomous devices.
