Google advances its plan to bring smart glasses to the masses
'...Google will have to meet several challenges. One is to refine their design so
that wearers don’t look like nerds from a laboratory. Another is to
assuage inevitable concerns around privacy that the glasses will raise.
The firm will also need to reassure people their eyeballs won’t be
blitzed with advertising, which is Google’s preferred way to mint money.
Mr Brin stresses the aim is to make a profit on the glasses themselves,
whose mass-market price will be well below the $1,500 developers are
paying for a pair. That should make them worth a close look'
