Meta said it donated 1,000 Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses in Singapore and provided a US$30,000 grant to support people with disabilities.

The glasses will go to the Singapore Association of the Visually Handicapped, a nonprofit for people with visual impairments; Guide Dogs Singapore, which supports mobility and assistance services; the Singapore Disability Sports Council, which backs para-athletes and disability sports; and Gardens by the Bay, the nature park.

The grant will help the Singapore Association of the Visually Handicapped develop and deliver free training for people with visual impairments.

The training will cover reading text, identifying objects, and using voice commands.

Meta advertises its broader AI glasses range as starting at US$249, but it did not disclose the retail value of the donation.

The company also has a Singapore-localised product page.

Meta announced the donation at an accessibility event attended by Senior Parliamentary Secretary Eric Chua.
