- Neues aus der Technik
It hasn’t been smooth sailing for smart glasses. Marked by the failure of Google Glass (now repositioned for enterprise use), which was initially introduced in 2013, smart glasses are experiencing a revival as many other tech companies try their hand at the accessory. Snap released the Snap Spectacles to let users take pictures and videos, and they now sport AR and voice capabilities. Amazon’s Echo Frames are embedded with Alexa. This week, Facebook enlisted EssilorLuxottica to unveil Ray-Ban Stories. It’s clear that major tech companies see the potential for smart glasses, especially when paired with voice assistants. While these devices are getting less clunky and adding on more capabilities, it remains to be seen if they are compelling enough to spur widespread adoption. Early critiques pointing to Facebook’s privacy track record are already rolling in.
