The Meta VR Glasses. | Photo by Brett Putman / The Verge Meta is launching new VR hardware: a pair of glasses.

Imagine a pair of hefty black sunglasses with blacked-out lenses on the outside, but the components of a typical VR headset distributed between the device on your head and a computing puck in your pocket. The idea is to give you a way to experience VR in a much lighter and more approachable form factor than Vision Pro or Meta Quest-style headsets.
