Google is stepping up its game in augmented and extended reality (XR) with a new prototype smart glasses design that combines functionality with discreet aesthetics. Unlike bulky headsets, these glasses maintain a lightweight look while incorporating clear lenses that allow natural vision and unobstructed eye contact. Demonstrations by Google's Shahram Izadi at TED 2025 showcased seamless integration of AI interactions and information display while ensuring user comfort. This marks a shift toward more accessible and practical use of XR technologies.
Despite the impressive nature of XR demos, practical daily use is limited by the awkwardness and isolation caused by traditional headsets.
Google's renewed commitment to AR and XR shows promise with its prototype smart glasses that blend technological capability and user-friendly design.
