Luxottica prepping upcoming version of Google Glass: Report
Popular eyewear manufacturer Luxottica which owns brands like Ray-Ban, Oakley and several other major sunglasses brands is now looking to partner with Google for the upcoming version of Glass. The information was given out by the CEO of Luxottica, Massimo Vian during the company’s general meeting in Milan, Italy.
Vian said – “In Google, there are some second thoughts on how to interpret version 3 [of the eyewear]. What you saw was version 1. We’re now working on version 2, which is in preparation.” Google however has been tight lipped about this project so far.
By pairing with a major eyewear maker like Luxottica, Google can hope to appeal to a large segment of audience with the new Glass. So this seems to be a logical move for the company. The arrival of the finished product is still some distance away though, so don’t expect it to hit the shelves anytime soon.
