Glasses that function likea smartphone? If you've been following Google news recently, you know it's not out of the realm of possibility.
Google plans to introduce what appear to be the glasses of the future by year's end, The New York Times' Nick Bilton wrote today.
According to unnamed sources, which the Times described as Google employees, the glasses will be Android-based and includea small screen inches from the wearer's eye. The glasses also will be sold to the public for $250 to $600.
"We are not going to comment on rumor or speculation,"a Google spokesman told ABC News via email.
The glasses will reportedly havea 3G or 4G connection, several sensors anda built-in camera to watch the world in real time and relay information about locations and friends nearby.
One employee said the glasses would also use Google software products and display them ina "reality view."
Seth Weintraub,a blogger for 9to5Google, reported on the glasses in December and January. He reported in January that the display on the Google glasses would be on just one side and that the navigation would include head tilting in order to scroll and click.
"I think this will be the most exciting technology product release this year," Weintraub wrote today.
