The Orion system allows users to see the world through silicon carbide lenses, with micro LED projectors displaying information directly in their field of vision. It includes seven cameras for positioning and eye tracking. The system comprises glasses, a wristband for hand motion detection, and a compute puck connected via Wi-Fi 6. Users interact with Orion using eye movements and hand gestures, similar to a computer mouse. Current applications include projecting recipes, playing games, and video calls. Orion is currently being tested by Meta employees, with plans for future consumer versions.
