Lighter, cheaper augmented reality glasses with privacy guardrails are staging a comeback.
By Rebecca Day
I assume one day I’ll own smart glasses, though I can’t for the life of me understand why I’d want to today. That’s often how it works with me and tech. Unlike HDTV — which I craved after I first saw eyepopping jockey silk colors in an ABC-TV demo reel — new product categories often take time for me to adjust to. I’m not a tech-for-tech’s sake kind of gal. I need to see a compelling reason buy into the next big thing – and for the price to come down.
