The glasses can record short video clips that can be shared with Snapchat users. Snap Inc. has started selling its sunglasses online.
Apple iPhone X
Apple's new iPhone X has a new Face ID system that it says will unlock the phone just by having the user look at it. This replaces the Touch ID on previous ones that used a fingerprint to unlock the phone.
Apple says the system works by projecting more than 30, 000 dots on the face to create a kind of map. Apple says its facial recognition is even safe enough to allow payments through its Apple Pay service.
