The work plan on Meta viewers was told by The Information, which anticipated that there are currently four devices under development. The first will be a high-level model that we have already come to know as Project Cambria, but which is known internally as Arcata. It will be a slim and light viewer, it will work stand-alone therefore without connecting wired or wireless to a smartphone or computer and will deal with the so-called mixed reality or virtual and augmented reality together. The internal components will be comparable to those of a low-end notebook, what is needed to govern two high-definition displays, network and wireless connections and various ar and vr applications. The battery should be more generous than that of the Quest 2 and would find housing on the back, as well as balancing the weight of the components on the front, which include tracking of the eyes and facial expressions.
The release in the open is expected after the summer, towards September most likely with a dedicated event and it seems that the American price will be 799 dollars (about 760 euros). The code names of the two simplest viewers and mostly deputies to virtual reality are Stinson and Cardiff and are expected respectively for 2023 and 2024, there is not too much information about it. Also in 2024, a second top-of-the-range viewer for mixed reality will be released with the code name Funston which will improve the hardware and perhaps even the design based on the feedback collected with the first generation. Collaterally, a pair of augmented reality glasses called Nazare Ar and more entrylevel smartglasses known as Hypernova are also being studied, which would act as a companion for the smartphone and as a support for multimedia and to capture content for social media.
