Meta unveiled new VR glasses weighing just 100 grams, claimed to have "the best display system we've ever made." Key specs: 3D space, virtual screens, exceptionally good hand occlusion, and DisplayPort over USB-C for low-latency external display use. Demo reactions included "it is like a computer" and "you could edit a whole movie just using the table." Mark positioned it as cinema + computer + game console in one; James Cameron said he'd like to see his work in these glasses. The author is most excited about the USB-C DisplayPort support and hand tracking quality.
