Today, Oakley has unveiled a new set of smart glasses, the Oakley Meta Vanguard, with built-in Meta AI, and integration with both Strava and Garmin out of the box, plus an onboard camera, bone conduction headphones, and a visual package that, unlike other smart glasses, doesn’t look awful and clunky.
This is far from the first time that additional tech has been shoehorned into the best cycling glasses. Those with long memories will recall the Oakley Thump, which lasted long enough to see a second version spawn (the Thump 2), both of which had an inbuilt MP3 player (remember those?) and in-ear headphones that hinged down from the temples.
