Come on, why would you make smart glasses with a clear shell and then hide the electronics behind an inner shielding layer? I want all the circuits on display.


There was a limited edition that was translucent so you could see inside pretty recently https://www.meta.com/blog/ray-ban-meta-coperni-limited-editi...

Believe if you worked at Meta when the glasses just came out there was also a limited fully transparent frame as well.


i have the ‘stone’ colorway which is semi transparent brown.


Light can affect the operation of many electronics, it's just easier to not worry about it and enclose the entire thing. Some models of RPI had this problem.


ah yes to satisfy that world famous market of giga electronics nerds in oakleys


Well i know this is sarcastic but have you seen the preferred design language of the Oakley founder? Exposed circuitry is righttt up his alley.


it sounds like he got in trouble for exposing his circuitry in public
