Back in June last year, we saw reports suggesting that Meta is developing a smartwatch with dual cameras that could launch this year. We even saw an image of the watch leak online in the latter half of 2021. However, no news about the development of the wearable surfaced since then, until recently. Now, according to a recent report, Meta has stopped developing its dual-camera smartwatch after facing technical issues. Check out the details right below!
According to a recent report by Bloomberg, citing people with knowledge about the matter, Meta has put a halt on the development process of a smartwatch that was supposed to come with dual-cameras, health and fitness features, and more. The report states that the company is instead focusing on the development of other wrist-focused devices.
Now, Meta reportedly integrated the secondary camera at the back of the smartwatch to let users quickly take off their watch and capture a scene. However, the design posed technical issues for another top-priority feature for translating nerve signals from the wrist into digital commands.
