If they do it like their current Ray Ban glasses, there's an LED on the front that lights up when it's recording. People will no doubt disable it though.

- baby 2y agoyou can't disable it, and it doesn't really matter anyway because nobody seems to notice it. I have videos of all my friends the first time I run into them using the glasses, and none of them realize that I'm recording them unless I stare at them for long enough without moving.
- wlesieutre 2y agoYou can't disable it in software. You can put a piece of tape over it, fill it with black nail polish, let the smoke out of the LED, or otherwise keep the light from being visible.
- itsyaboi 2y agoThis particular LED not only emits light but works in reverse as well: it functions as an ambient light sensor. Recording is paused if the LED and camera inputs have a significant difference in detected light levels.
- wlesieutre 2y agoHuh, that’s a good trick! I figured it was like the AirTag speakers. Props to Facebook for making it less circumventable.
