At its Connect 2026 event, Meta unveiled several new AI and wearable products. One of the key announcements was Muse Charm, a small gadget designed for voice-based interactions with AI. Meta also announced the expansion of its smart glasses range with new Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses and more than 100 style options. The company also announced Meta VR Glasses. Here are the key announcements from Meta Connect 2026.
Meta has announced a voice mode for Muse. Users will soon be able to talk to Muse in real time and have it continue working on tasks in the background. Muse is also getting a Realtime Avatar feature. It will turn the AI into an interactive digital avatar that can respond more naturally.
On Mac, Muse will be able to control apps with the user’s permission and continue working even when they step away from the computer.

Meta has also announced plans to bring Muse to its AI glasses. Users will be able to call the agent hands-free and ask questions about objects they are looking at. “Muse can also act on what you’re looking at, so you won’t have to describe what’s in front of you: ask about a product on a shelf, a flier on a wall, or a long list of school supplies, and Muse can take action,” the company said.
Meta also teased the Muse Charm, a small AI gadget designed to let users interact with Muse through voice. The pocket-sized device will use Muse’s real-time voice model. Meta said it will share more details about the device later this year.
Meta also introduced its first audio glasses. The Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses combine open-ear speakers with AI features. The company claims the glasses offer up to 12 hours of battery life and come in Clubmaster and Burbank styles.
Meta also announced Ray-Ban Meta Gen 3 glasses, which feature a slimmer design, an action button and improved battery life.

Meta also unveiled its VR Glasses. The device weighs around 100 grams and uses micro-OLED panels for a 5K infinite display. A separate puck houses the battery and processor, reducing the weight on the user’s face. The glasses can create multiple virtual screens and support eye and hand controls.
