Facebook is a well-known social media in foreign countries, but in the second half of last year, it announced that it had changed its name to Meta, entering the meta-universe, and was also developing its own smart watches and other products. Recently, according to foreign media letsgodigital, Facebook applied to WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization) for a patent for a "detachable camera module for wearable devices", which was approved on January 13 this year.
The patent document shows that the Facebook (Meta) smart watch has two forms, one is a square dial, one is a round dial, is a smart watch with a detachable display, and integrates multiple cameras on the screen at the same time, at least 2, and the document assumes that it is equipped with three cameras, including macro, telephoto, zoom, wide angle and other lenses, with the help of multiple cameras, different camera views can be obtained.
The Facebook smartwatch comes with a second display, similarly with multiple cameras, and the display has the same dimensions as the first screen, and users can easily remove the screen from the casing. The case then remains on the user's wrist along with the wrist strap. The monitors are interchangeable.
The watch display of the circular model is rotated and can be rotated clockwise and counterclockwise, but the magnets must be in contact with each other, so there are five fixed rotation positions.
And the removable smartwatch display with built-in camera can also be used with other VR/AR systems, such as head-mounted displays (HMDs) or smart glasses, to explore the possibilities of smartwatch AR and VR, which also makes us feel very curious about how they work.
