Are glasses with an embedded camera socially acceptable?
The Meta Display glasses are chonkier than almost all normal glasses, and probably pushing past the limits of acceptability for most.
If the choices are:
Why is choice 1 better?
- Socially unacceptable in public, but not absurdly thicker than normal glasses, with maybe a bit more functionality than AirPods (but worse audio)
- Socially unacceptable in public, and look nothing like glasses, but have the functionality of a typical computer
Yes, Meta glasses are socially acceptable. They have an indicator light to show when they’re recording.
Choice 1 is better because you can maintain natural eye to eye contact with the wearer. We’ve evolved millions of years and expect it. Vision Pro completely lacks that.
