Yim\/Getty Images for Girls Write Now)      <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">It is not Google\u2019s first foray into smartglasses, having pioneered the technology through its augmented reality Glass device more than a decade ago.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">The glasses faced criticism for their unusual design, poor battery life, and a lack of useful apps, while privacy concerns also emerged due to the built-in camera and live video recording.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">The backlash led early adopters to be dubbed <a

data-ylk=\"slk:\u201cGlassholes\u201d;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">\u201cGlassholes\u201d<\/a>, and Google eventually halted production in 2015.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Other tech firms have since launched smartglasses that have managed to avoid that same stigma, with Meta partnering with Ray-Ban and Oakley to sell more than 2 million pairs since launching in 2023.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Apple is also working on a pair of smartglasses, which are expected to debut in early 2026.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">The upcoming Google glasses will come with a new Android XR operating system, which also works with other devices like the Galaxy XR headset.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">The operating system supports augmented reality overlays for apps like Google Meet and Google Maps, while the inclusion of Gemini allows wearers to take pictures, view them and edit them without taking off the glasses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Google is yet to unveil the final design or price of the AI glasses, with a full announcement expected at an event next year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Google&#8217;s AI glasses will
