Liminal, a studio whose VR catalog trades in short moods such as calm, focus and energy, has carried its wellness work out of the headset. Liminal: Walking Meditation runs on Meta AI glasses and narrates a spoken session shaped by whatever the wearer is actually walking past.
The camera in the glasses grabs images along the route, and the app converts them into commentary within seconds. Setup runs through a phone: the companion app reaches both iOS and Android in October, and after that the handset can stay pocketed while the audio plays through the frames.
Meta showed off the Device Access Toolkit during its Developer State of the Union at Connect 2026, and this app is an early example of what developers can build with it.
A prerelease build, tried on a neighborhood walk, came across as unlike a recorded meditation. The app samples the scene at intervals rather than filming continuously, so it can name a tree as you pass it or point out where grass meets pavement.
The launch lineup runs to twelve meditation themes, each steering attention a different way, and eight voices are on offer alongside three pacing settings. Pacing does more than space out the silence: it governs how much narration you hear and how long a session lasts. The briefest option still calls for a walk of roughly 10 to 13 minutes, with longer settings stretching it out further.
Chief executive Damian Moratti framed the effort as adding something to smart glasses rather than porting over the studio’s virtual reality catalog. Early builds also exposed how hard it is to judge a scene: one fixated on garbage cans, while another spun an over-enthusiastic story around a shop window.
