I’m not sure that the mass market shares the tech industry’s vision for smart glasses

One recent change among early-adopter circles was plain on the faces of many fellow attendees of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Summit in Maui this week: “smart” glasses with cameras, microphones, speakers and sometimes screens. But then my flights home Friday reminded me that for the overwhelming majority of people, “eyewear” means electronics-free glasses.

Qualcomm’s invitation-only conference–that company paid my airfare and lodging, as it did on my prior trips to cover it in 2021, 2022 and 2024–allowed me to get some brief face time with Snap’s Spectacles ’24, running newer software than the version I tried at last year’s summit. The event also treated me to a parade of tech execs testifying that smart glasses were the next big computing platform.

But despite all those optimistic assurances and my own earlier, brief tryouts of such smart glasses as Meta’s camera-enabled Ray-Bans and a prototype set of Android XR glasses, I remain unsold on the entire concept. So, it seems, do most customers: A Forrester Research survey released in September found that 79 percent of respondents had no interest in buying smart glasses.

On one hand, smart glasses with cameras, speakers and microphones are not particularly cheap–the Ray-Ban-branded models from the conglomerate EssilorLuxottica cost $379 and up–but perform worse than phones at taking pictures and playing audio.

Plus, they have the potential to annoy friends and strangers who aren’t keen on the possibility of surreptitious photography.

On the other hand, more advanced smart glasses with built-in displays could finally make hands-free augmented-reality overviews of the world a reality, but first somebody has to bring them to market at a not-crazy price. Snap’s Spectacles, which require a $99/month developer subscription, are not there; Meta’s Ray-Ban Display glasses, available starting Tuesday for $799, aren’t that much closer.

And somebody also has to solve battery-life concerns: What’s my motivation to strap a computer to my face, however stylish it might get, if that electronic eyewear will only run six hours on a charge and therefore need recharging much more often than my phone?

Meta championing this cause gives me further cause. That company has shown a history of careless indifference to the consequences of its actions, including repeated episodes of bad-faith behavior towards my own industry, that does not make me want to give it my money.

But Meta has also been so spectacularly wrong about consumer-electronics trends–topped by Mark Zuckerberg renaming Facebook to “Meta” and losing tens of billions of dollars on the delusional notion that people want to spend prolonged time in virtual-reality environments–that Zuck pushing smart glasses itself seems reason to eye the concept skeptically. Through dumb, software-free glasses.

* jaja, Google, big tech usw. Ich nehme auch ne EU Alternative mit gleicher Funktion... Verschont mich mit Panik-Angst-Risiko-Antworten. Ich will gerade das Positive darin sehen.

A matrix of private #emotional knowledge that will permit manipulation and even #involuntarycontrol of individuals, outside of their awareness: #googleglasses.

1960’s and 70’s #dystopianscifi authors were pitching softballs: the willingness of folks to give away personal sovereignty for some undefined promise wildly underestimated.

ahead of the launch of #Gemini20, Bibo Xu, a product manager on the #Google #DeepMind team, said that “a small group will be testing #ProjectAstra on prototype #googleglasses, which we believe is one of the most powerful and intuitive form factors to experience this kind of #AI.”

Hat #Google gerade #GoogleGlasses wiederbelebt?

Which vision of the future is less dystopian? #GoogleGlasses or Apple #VisionPro?

I think Google Glasses was a far less dystopian vision of an AR future and a future I would much prefer to the Vision Pro future
