Swedish tech firm Meta has pulled out of the wearable camera market, according to reports

Meta has halted development of a smartwatch with two built-in cameras. The device – codenamed’Milan’ – had reportedly been planned for release in spring 2023 at a price of around $ 349. Technical issues, as well as general cost-cutting at meta, are reportedly to blame for the cancellation.

The first would have been a 5-megapixel front-facing camera. A 12-megapixel camera placed underneath would be used to take photos and capture video when the watch was detached from the wrist.

The second camera interfered with the watch’s ability to pick up nerve signals from the wrist. Meta had hoped that the device would also be able to act as a controller for separate augmented reality glasses and other metaverse initiatives.

Emg can understand finger motion of just a millimeter. That means input can be effortless.’it may even be possible to sense just the intention to move a finger,’ company said.

The team had hoped the watch would offer 18 hours of battery life on a charge. The wearable would have included GPS, cellular connectivity, activity tracking, music playback, and integration with meta services like WhatsApp and Instagram.
