Facebook announces a tweet made by the head of Facebook Reality Labs, Andrew Bosworth (Boz). While Ray-Ban publishes a promo page to sign up for smart glasses.

The functions of Facebook smart glasses are very much like Snapchat spectacles. The smart glasses can capture real-world views that users can share on Facebook and Instagram Direct. It will also be interesting to see how Ray-Ban integrates camera elements on cool and fashionable smart glasses.
