A revolution in wearable technology is now on the horizon. Soon we’ll see a legion of smart glasses that combine on-demand and on-need AI-backed audio and visual information, delivered with or without your nearby smartphone, and all without the imposition of oddball looks or physical discomfort. However, the revolution is yet to be built on “aha!” moments (and maybe some FOMO).That’s the conclusion I drew after speaking with Juston Payne, Google’s Senior Director of Product Management for XR.
