With Meta Connect in fast approaching (2026 Sep. 23-2026 Sep. 24), the smart glasses industry is buzzing over a massive new leak detailing exactly what the tech giant is working on next. According to recent reports, we are looking at not just one, but four unreleased Ray-Ban models currently appearing in FCC documentation and internal systems .
The Leaks: Expanding the Frame Family
Meta is clearly trying to add more styles to the glasses family. The leaks indicate three models with varying physical designs—including wayfarer, cat-eye, and aviator shapes—alongside a highly anticipated fourth model that appears to be entirely camera-free . This camera-free version could bridge the gap for users who want seamless audio and AI access in secure environments, like hospitals or offices, without the privacy friction of a front-facing lens .
Another major revelation is a leaked app interface showing options to manually adjust lens tint between clear, medium, and dark [02:48]. This suggests electrochromic lenses might finally be making their way to everyday consumer eyewear, allowing users to transition seamlessly from indoor to outdoor environments with a tap of the frames .

Beyond the Hardware: The Software Missing Link
While a broader range of physical styles is great for driving mainstream consumer adoption, the hardware is only half the battle. What we are really looking into is a more practical software update and better SDK support for very specific use cases.
The leaked integration of "Muse," an upcoming AI agent that can take proactive actions like sending emails, filling out forms, or booking calendar events directly from the glasses, is a step in the right direction. However, for the ecosystem to truly thrive, third-party developers need deeper, less restrictive SDK access. Opening up these tools allows creators to build highly specialized, practical applications—whether for enterprise workflows, niche accessibility needs, or unique daily tasks—rather than relying solely on generalized, first-party AI.
The Elephant in the Room: Continuous Power
Features like on-demand electrochromic tinting, action-oriented AI agents, and experimental "super sensing" that continuously captures environmental context all share one critical bottleneck: battery drain.
Power is a continuous challenge for all smart glasses. Pushing high-end AI processing, continuous microphone arrays, and constant connectivity into lightweight frames inevitably pushes internal batteries to their absolute limit. We have been working on polishing our smart glasses power pod for 18 months to solve exactly this friction point. To support this next generation of demanding wearable tech, we will release an upgraded version of our power solution—still called the Carina C2—in Q4.
