Re: Anyone Know About Ray-Ban Smart Glasses?
I own and love them. Holding up something and asking what it is is way easier than using Seeing AI on the phone since you're hands-free.Color identification seems pretty accurate. You can get summaries of text you're looking at, but for serious text reading, I use Seeing AI.They'll give you short scene descriptions, and you can ask about specific stuff in the picture from there.There are 5 microphone in the glasses, making the videos seem as if you're right there when you watch them back.You don't actually need a FB account, but I mean, yeah, it IS Meta. And Meta owns FaceBook.They're not for everyone, but hands-free AI capabilities, spatial audio in videos, and open-ear audio when walking about make them one of my best $400 purchases.Brianna On Jun 26, 2024, at 11:53 AM, 'Patrick Ford' via MacVisionaries wrote:ACB recently put out a podcast about these glasses, and the people who actually own them spoke about their experiences with them, their limitations, and so forth, I’m not sure we are on ACB American council for the blind, that they keep these podcasts for replay, but if you write to ACB they would tell you I’m sure Sent from my iPhoneOn Jun 26, 2024, at 8:02 AM, 'Eileen Scrivani ' via MacVisionaries wrote:Okay, thank you.
