Meta returned to the centre of controversy by filing a patent for a system that integrates cameras with facial recognition and artificial intelligence in Ray-Ban glasses. The patented document describes the ability to identify people in a scene.

The patent emerges weeks after the company removed public evidence that its Ray-Ban glasses would use facial recognition technology. The document also describes an assistant capable of processing information about users and their surroundings.
