Next-Gen Vision: Oakley and Meta Launch AI-Driven Performance Glasses

By DaMarko Webster

Oakley is officially stepping into the AI wearable space—and it’s not doing it alone. In a bold move to fuse high-performance design with cutting-edge tech, Oakley has teamed up with Meta to launch a new category of Performance AI glasses, beginning with the debut of the Oakley Meta HSTN.

This collaboration brings together Oakley’s 50-year legacy in sports eyewear and Meta’s leadership in spatial computing and artificial intelligence. The result is a sleek, AI-enabled pair of glasses that blurs the line between style, utility, and immersive performance.

The Oakley Meta HSTN is built for movement. With a hands-free 3K Ultra HD camera, open-ear audio, and Meta AI integration, these glasses are as ready for the field as they are for daily life. Need to record a moment mid-game or ask about wind conditions before your next swing? Just say, “Hey Meta.” With up to eight hours of active battery life and a case that delivers 48 more, stamina won’t be an issue.

Athletes like Kylian Mbappé and Patrick Mahomes front the global campaign, but the Oakley Meta HSTN isn’t reserved for pros. Designed for both athletes and fans, the glasses also boast Oakley’s proprietary PRIZM™ lens technology, which enhances contrast, sharpens details, and adjusts seamlessly to varying light.

The launch lineup includes six frame and lens combinations—each Rx-ready—plus a Limited Edition Gold 50th Anniversary pair, signaling both a nod to the past and a leap into the future.

Smart, stylish, and deeply functional, the Oakley Meta HSTN sets a new standard for wearable tech. It’s not just eyewear—it’s your next performance partner.
