Google Glass, or simply Glass, is a discontinued brand of smart glasses developed by Google's X Development (formerly Google X),[9] with a mission of producing a ubiquitous computer.[1] Google Glass displays information to the wearer using a head-up display.[10] Wearers communicate with the Internet via natural language voice commands.[11][12]

Google started selling a prototype of Google Glass to qualified "Glass Explorers" in the US on April 15, 2013, for a limited period for $1,500, before it became available to the public on May 15, 2014.[13] It has an integrated 5 megapixel still/720p video camera. The headset received a great deal of criticism amid concerns that its use could violate existing privacy laws.[14]

On January 15, 2015, Google announced that it would stop producing the Google Glass prototype.[15] The prototype was succeeded by two Enterprise Editions,[16][17] whose sales were suspended on March 15, 2023.[18] More than a decade later, Google would return to the extended reality space with Android XR, an operating system that will power headsets and smartglasses.
