The story behind the frame
The Ray-Ban Meta collaboration puts modern technology inside a frame first designed in 1952. Built into the wayfarer silhouette are a camera, open-ear speakers, and microphones, so you can take photos and video, listen to music, and take calls without a phone in hand.
It is the latest step in a long evolution — from Arctic snow goggles to polarized lenses to smart glasses — covered in our history of sunglasses. Because it records video, be mindful of other people's privacy and local rules.
