Thanks man! Just got my meta glasses today and I got them to make videos when in public because it is so weird videoing when going into stores, restaurants or walking in public with a camera. Even though I'm allowed to video in public i always get unwanted attention or people trying to say I cannot record when I can. Getting the glasses and seeing that it only allows with very bright LED light going does not help me at all! This fixed my issue or I was gonna send them back. 100% defeats my purpose of getting these glasses with that LED light. People do not have that privacy in public and I should not have to let people know I am recording or have a light on that is blinding everyone "look at me I'm recording" !! Thanks again.

It's still silly as all get out. There's so many cameras filming you throughout the day that it's pitiful. People are real silly sometimes. @@Sheenifier
I heard one guy drilled directly into the light to permanently disable it. Wondering if that solution might work. Would be great to find a way to disable that light without having to cover the camera. But anyways, great, you have found a working solution!
I think 1 way clear plastic would be the best bet, since it accepts light in from outside, but not out , so both sensors would be reading the same light values.
If you make a circle of electrical tape small enough to cover the LED but not the sensor around it, you don't have to touch the camera when you start filming, AND photos work just fine.
Thanks for this reveal! Game changer. I tested other methods with covering. drawing a black circle on your finger with black ink works. Or wearing a band-aid with a black circle on the part of your finger easiest to cover. I have brown skin but that didn't work. I will get a tan and test it out :P

Here is the hack I've invented: you can use black tape and attach it over the sensor in a 3D shape, as shown: __/\__ (top view). In most cases, light comes from above (either from a lamp or the sky), so the sensor will receive enough light through this open space from above. To enhance reflection, you can even insert a small piece of foil in the center (or you could try to build some kind of reflecting microprism there if you can, though it’s not mandatory). At the same time viewers usually look at the glasses from the side, so they won’t see the LED-they will only see the black tape (not flat but who cares). This method doesn’t work in dark environments or in rare cases when the light source is directly in front of you. However, in most situations, the glasses will successfully capture photos and videos without any additional tricks, just press the key and enjoy :)
@@thecapnpoopy that was a question, not a conclusion. If there is no expectation of privacy in public, what do you need to hide the LED for? What problem does covering the LED solve?

Also im pretty sure the only way you can get the stories now is through second hand cause i dont see it on their store, so i would still reccomend getting the metas over the stories
I guessing you will have to hold your finger over the light the whole time? I could not get it to work, light is still on when i remove my finger to keep recording. Tape stays on there and you can't notice it nor have to keep covering the light with finger.
Try making the cover only big enough to cover the light diode inside the light sensor ring. The demos or is the ring around the light. Keep that uncovered.
I try to avoid touching my glass as much as possible as skin produces a natural oil which might leave noticable streaks on the lens. It's a habit that I just got used to when working with larger cameras and lenses where it is very noticible. Perhaps not so noticeable with tiny lenses like this or cell phones but still concerned it could degrade the image quality.
Holy fuck it works, I was actually playing around with it and couldn’t get it to work, what finally worked for me it is putting my entire palm over the camera.
Based on the principle you discovered, I think 'reflection' is more meaningful than 'obstruction'. A simple experiment, if you tilt a mirror at 45 degrees to block the LED, it won't trigger an alarm when taking a picture. Because the light from the LED is reflected away, and the external light is reflected into the brightness sensor. So, it's likely that placing a small 45-degree reflective mirror in front of the LED can achieve the task. Of course, the other side of the reflective mirror can be blackened.
its working. Just turn off wear detection in Your glasses setting, you can block camera even with your finger when you are taking off glasses! just keep your finger clear! Ty
Yes it works. You don't need to use an electrical tape for the camera. Just keep in mind that the amount of light absorbed needs to be the same on both sides. LED and camera. I personally didn't try yet by using the electrical tape on the LED side, but for me it works just by using my fingers on both sides. I think is more a practical issue: By using your fingers you can leave finger prints on the camera, making the recording blurry (and maybe keep cleaning more often).
Ehat if you started the recording and then covered the LED. Does it still work? Instead of carrying electric tape for the camera, why not cary an LED sticker for when you want to film incognito?
I just got mine today and it works. There is an option to change the recording to 3 min max. I would like longer but at least it lets you know when it stops recording and you just start recording again!
If meta wanted to apply this stupid pro privacy politics why they did their best to miniaturize as much as possible a camera inside some glasses? It's like creating a gun and not enable you to put bullets. Ridiculous
I just got mine today and was going to send them back till i found this hack! I for sure don't want to draw the attention that I'm recording when i'm out in public. I get a lot of unwanted attention when I travel!

While I don't like the light, it's a necessary handicap. In all those cases, they have an intended purpose. Whereas cameras like on our phones have a free range of uses and you can abuse that more easily than a body, dash, and security cam. I think people are failing to realize that it's not illegal to use the camera in public pretty much in any country without people's consent (unless stated otherwise like at a concert or private whatever), but it's designed so you can't just easily do that.
You do not have ask or give consent to record! People get the wiring tapping law confused with recording. this is why you never hear of anyone getting charged with it because you do not need consent to record in public or have to let them know you are doing it. It's public and you have the right to do so!
Apparently it uses the camera to determine if the room is lit, and disables recording if the two sensors disagree. You can easily get around this by blocking the LED, but right before you hit record, cover the camera with your thumb. It will assume it's dark and allow you to start recording.

Just add the other person to the live assuming you’re trying to cheat?
@@noncompliance4100 bought glasses and tested, and of course you can't do that because simply phone is supporting one bluetooth device/connection at the time ....
@@mohammadalsayab503 but he can only watch, can't talk to my strem .....
Can't you just use the finger instead of the electrical tape?
yes i just did it by putting my index and thumb over the light and camera and pressed record. this is latest US update.
@@marctronixxyo were able to record today?
@@aureaudio yes when i saw this comment i just tried this. im wearing them now. i have multiple pairs.
@@marctronixx its not working for me. it did yesterday, but today no luck.
@@marctronixx i found a workaround....push the light blocking dot to the side just enough to let light in... then push it back into place after you started recording...takes 5-10 seconds which is not bad
Just carry a black cloth
any color would work
Have any one try cover with aluminium foil. Then black tape?
THIS SILLY LIGHT IS THE ONLY REASON THAT I WON’T BUY ONE OF THESE GLASSES.
I will wait for another company to manufacture a glass without a light.
No one has to know or bother what I am doing with my personal items. The sole reason is this glasses to RECORD IN PUBLIC. Not to ANNOUNCE EVERYONE that you recording..
This light itself would create more problems within public, comparing to public being recorded with every other device anyways as you mentioned.
I felt the same way but this hack fixed the issue. I just got mine today and hope I take a lot more videos than i do currently cuz i hate taking video out in public and it draws unwanted attention.
when i got help up at knifepoint and three guys were threatening to stab my dog i really needed to film them with out them knowing. but no its all about someone else's privacy.
You can just cover the camera with your hand.. you dont need tape..
This is a deal breaker for me. Such a shame... I aint doin all that...
I think you would need to make the blocking light tape smaller to cover just the led or carefully snip the led wire inside the device
yeah snip that wire would be the best solution.. or if somebody could hack them and disable the light
Show us what the videos look like
See our meta Universal hhn nights. They work great. Thanks for info new friend
