Meta planning new mixed reality glasses, The Information

Meta Platforms is planning a new mixed reality device that resembles a bulky pair of glasses, The Information’s Sylvia Varnham O’Regan reports, citing two Meta employees. The project, internally code-named Puffin, suggests the company is looking to design an alternative to its large, heavy headsets, which so far have had limited consumer appeal, the author writes. Mixed reality is a combination of augmented and virtual reality that allows people to see images and text over the real world or a virtual backdrop.
