Meta Reportedly Reviving Smartwatch Project 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.

They claimed that they had already paid the money â anywhere from Rs 12.5 lakh to Rs 19 lakh â and even deposited their biological samples when they grew suspicious about the operations of Dr Namratha and her clinic. The frauds occurred between 2019 and 2025. Cops are yet to ascertain details of the fifth case.

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.
