Be My Eyes Speak To Double Tap Following Meta Connect Announcement
Today on the show we hear from the team behind Be My Eyes who explain more following the big announcement that they are partnering with Meta to bring the popular volunteer service to the Meta Ray-Ban glasses. We also learn more about the Orion AR glasses that were showcased at the Meta Connect event courtesy of Alex Heath from The Verge, who kindly let us play a short clip from their hour-long conversation with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. You can watch the video in full from The Verge here. But the main focus of today’s show is the conversation with Be My Eyes. Shaun talks to CEO Mike Buckley and Chair Bryan Bashin about how the partnership happened, how the integration with the glasses will work, and what they hope will come in the future.
