Meta Reportedly Reviving Smartwatch Project with Built-in Camera
Meta to reportedly revive smartwatch plans with built-in camera

Facebook-parent Meta is reportedly reviving a project it shelved in 2022. According to DigiTimes, Meta has once again started working on its ambitious smartwatch project. The company's smartwatch may feature a built-in camera, showcasing Meta's unique approach to wrist-based technology. Unlike traditional smartwatches that focus on health tracking and notifications, Meta's device aims to complement its smart glasses and Quest VR headsets, providing users with a tool to capture and interact with their surroundings. The camera-centric design indicates a focus on augmented reality (AR) and AI-powered experiences rather than fitness or productivity.

Reports suggest that the upcoming Meta smartwatch could come equipped with a 12MP camera positioned underneath for off-wrist photography. Additionally, the wearable may include a 5MP front camera for wrist-based video calls. While Meta has not confirmed the specifications, the new version is expected to offer similar functionality, potentially enhanced by the company's recent developments in large language models and AI wearables.

The smartwatch is said to be part of Meta's broader strategy to enrich the metaverse experience by merging real-world visuals with virtual environments. Insiders speculate that the smartwatch might be unveiled at Meta Connect, the company's annual developer conference scheduled for September 17, 2025.

洗練と力強さを兼ね備えた都会派SUVへ進化――レクサスLBXが一部改良&モデリスタ仕様で新登場!
レクサスは2026年5月15日、同ブランド最小のコンパクトSUV「LBX」を一部改良し、同時にトヨタのカスタマイズブランド「モデリスタ」による専用仕様を設定して新たに発売しました。洗練されたスタイルとさらなる走行性能を兼ね備え、注目を集めています。2023年12月に登場したLBXは、「高級車の常識を変える」というコンセプトのもと開発され、登場からわずか半年で世界60以上の国と地域に展開。累計販売台数はすでに6万5000台を突破し、レクサスのグローバル戦略における新たな主力モデルとしての地位を確立しています。LBXは、専用チューニングを施したTNGA GA-Bプラットフォームをベースに、「Lexus Driving Signature」の深化を目指した上質なハンドリングと静粛性を追求。都市部での快適な移動を重視した設計が特徴です。ボディサイズは全長4190mm、全幅1825mm、全高1545mmと、取り回しやすさと存在感を両立。ホイールベースは2580mmで、張り出し感のあるフェンダーと大径タイヤが力強く安定したスタンスを演出します。フロントマスクには新世代デザイン「ユニファイドスピンド

よかれと思ってやっているのに逆効果!? 愛車の寿命を縮めるNGカーケア5選
愛車を大切に扱っているつもりが、実は知らず知らずのうちに車の寿命を縮めてしまっていることがあります。日常的に何気なく行っているケアでも、間違った方法はトラブルの元に。今回は、意外と多い「やりがちなNG行動」を5つピックアップし、その理由と正しい対処法を詳しく解説します。NG行為1:下り坂でNレンジに入れて燃費を節約しようとする下り坂でAT車のシフトをNレンジにするのは、一見燃費が良くなりそうですが、実は逆効果。現代のAT車はDレンジのままアクセルを戻せば、エンジンが燃料噴射を抑えて効率的に走行してくれます。Nレンジにするとエンジンからの駆動力が断たれ、AT内部の潤滑オイルを送るポンプが停止し、内部の損傷リスクが高まるため非常に危険です。たとえ誤操作しても安全機能で保護されていますが、基本的には絶対に避けましょう。NG行為2:タイヤの空気圧を必要以上に高く設定する空気圧は車ごとに適正値が決まっており、燃費や走行性能を保つためにも守るべきポイントです。高めに設定すれば燃費がよくなると思われがちですが、過剰に高くするとタイヤの衝撃吸収力が低下し、足回りの部品にダメージを与えたり、偏摩耗や雨天

5 Simple Ways to Detect Spy App on Your Smartphone
In a recent ruling in a Divorce case, the Madhya Pradesh High Court held that a wife's private WhatsApp chat can be allowed to be presented as evidence under Section 14 of the Family Court Act, 1984 even if they are obtained without her permission. In this case, the husband accessed his wife's private WhatsApp chat via a special app installed on her phone (likely a spy app) without her knowledge and found out that she was having an extra-marital affair. His lawyers decided to present this as evidence in the court and seek divorce on the grounds of cruelty and adultery. The wife's lawyers challenged this move and did not want her WhatsApp chats to be presented to the court, arguing that this action by the husband violated her right to privacy under Article 21 of Constitution of India and Sections 43, 66 and 72 of the Information Technology Act. The Madhya Pradesh High Court rejected this argument and said that even though the right to privacy has been recognized as a fundamental right, the same is not absolute and is subject to exceptions and limitations.
