Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg unveiled a new line of virtual‑reality hardware at a recent event, introducing the $1,299 Meta VR Glasses and a Muse Charm pendant designed to work with the company’s AI agents.
The Meta VR Glasses are a lightweight headset that incorporates advanced sensors and a high‑resolution display, aimed at providing a more immersive experience for both gaming and professional applications. Zuckerberg highlighted the device’s potential to support Meta’s broader vision of a connected, virtual world.
Alongside the headset, Zuckerberg showcased the Muse Charm pendant, a wearable that can be paired with Meta’s AI agents to deliver contextual information and notifications. The pendant is intended to act as a discreet interface, allowing users to interact with AI-driven services without the need for a full headset.
Both products are priced at $1,299, positioning them in the premium segment of the virtual‑reality market. Meta has not yet announced a release date, but the company has indicated that the devices will be available to developers and early adopters in the coming months.
Meta’s push into hardware and AI integration reflects its ongoing strategy to expand beyond social media into immersive technologies and artificial intelligence. The company has previously invested heavily in virtual‑reality platforms such as Oculus, and the new offerings are expected to further strengthen its position in the evolving metaverse landscape.
