Sales of Meta Platforms’ Ray-Ban smart glasses more than tripled in the first half of the year from the same period a year earlier, Ray-Ban parent company EssilorLuxottica said in a press release on Monday. EssilorLuxottica CEO Francesco Milleri said on Monday that the company expected “a very fast ramp up” in the availability and distribution of a new line of Meta smart glasses, which will be under another EssilorLuxottica brand, Oakley. The full set of Meta’s Oakley smart glasses will be available later this summer. In February, EssilorLuxottica announced plans to grow its annual production capacity for smart glasses to 10 million units by the end of next year. The company did not say its previous production capacity but said at the time that it had sold 2 million pairs of Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses since September 2023. Milleri also said on Monday that the company believed it would need to grow its production capacity even further “at a certain point.” #Gadgets https://www.essilorluxott..
