@stablesjames Snap has unveiled the fourth generation of its Spectacles, and itâs introduced true AR for the first time. The social media giant behind Snapchat has been one of the biggest drivers of smartglasses, albeit with mixed success. But while the company has championed wearables for the face, itâs stopped short of true AR tech â until now. The new Snap Spectacles are a huge design divergence from the previous generations. Gone are the fun, brash and brightly colored designs that were primarily for recording and sharing content. The new specs are angular and futuristic, no less of a statement, and actually quite stylish as AR glasses go.
