I'm going to go against the grain and say it's their VR hardware they've been sitting on for years now.

Steam Frame, and then calling glasses "frames" is common.
Either case it seems like a bad name, but I'd reckon it's their VR/AR device.
Edit: also to add they've been working a lot on Proton for ARM as of late, as well as proton in general which they initially set out Proton as being a universal translation layer, not just x86-64.
