U.S. police and federal agencies are tightening security over Meta smartglasses with built-in cameras, citing new risks at detention and police facilities. The New York Police Department\'s counterterrorism bureau flagged Ray-Ban Meta smartglasses as a security and counterintelligence threat and ordered stricter screening of glasses entering inmate cells. A TikTok video filmed inside a South Carolina detention facility has also been cited. Warnings have spread to DHS teams and fusion centers, while ICE has banned wearing smartglasses in federal workspaces.

Apple is pushing plans to expand its in-development non-augmented reality smartglasses into a health and fitness platform, though such features are unlikely to be a focus in a first-generation product. Bloomberg\'s Mark Gurman said Apple is reviewing ways to revive health platform ideas it had explored for Vision Pro. Those plans were shelved due to the headset\'s weight. Possible approaches include combining workout-assist features and built-in heart-rate sensors, and using cameras to analyse movement.
