Google is set to release its first smart glasses since the flop of Google Glass, a previous attempt at augmented reality eyewear that failed to resonate with consumers. The new smart glasses, called “Google Glass Enterprise Edition 2,” are aimed at business and industrial use rather than the general public.
The new smart glasses are designed to help workers in various industries, such as manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare, access information hands-free and improve efficiency. Google is partnering with companies like AGCO, Deutsche Post DHL Group, and Sutter Health to pilot the use of the smart glasses in real-world work environments.
The launch of the new smart glasses is scheduled for next month, with Google hoping to learn from the mistakes of the past and create a product that meets the specific needs of businesses. Google is positioning the smart glasses as a tool to increase productivity and safety in the workplace by providing workers with instant access to instructions, manuals, and other useful information.
While Google Glass faced criticism for privacy concerns and social stigma when it was introduced to the consumer market several years ago, the company believes that targeting enterprise customers with a more focused and practical approach could lead to greater acceptance and adoption of the technology.
The success of Google’s new smart glasses remains to be seen, as the company navigates the challenges of bringing wearable technology into the workplace and addressing any potential resistance from employees or trade unions.
