Some of tech’s biggest players are currently working on various AR/VR projects, including Samsung, Apple, and Meta. A recently published report has given us new details on one of Meta’s AR projects (AR glasses), and it looks like it’s bad news.

Last year, it was reported by The Verge that Meta was working on AR glasses. The first version of this device, codename Orion, would be for developers only. However, the second version, codename Artemis, would see a consumer launch scheduled for 2027. Artemis was expected to get advanced display technology, but it seems Meta is changing its plans.
