The company is no stranger to working with smartglasses and connected eyewear having provided its lenses for Google Glass, as well as making frames for Microsoft's HoloLens AR headset.

You'll still have to hunt down one of Snapchat's snapbot vending machines, which have so far popped up in New York, LA and even the Grand Canyon.
If you need a reminder, the sunglasses pack in a video camera to record 10 seconds of video using a 115-degree-angle lens. You can then sync footage with your smartphone to easily share them as Snapchat Memories.
