Google Announces new version of Glass, their smart glasses

Google Glass, smart glasses developed by the American giant of internet searches, is getting closer to hit the market. The evidence comes from the offer made by the company to 10 thousand people for buying an updated version of the Glass before the arrival of the device to a larger audience, which should happen only in 2014.
Through the Glass page on Google +, the company disclosed that a new version of the glasses is ready to hit the market. The owners of old prototypes of the Glass, named by Explorers, may invite three friends to buy the new version, as well as change your appliances by new models without having to pay extra for that.
Google has not disclosed what are the innovations in the new model of its smart glasses, which should hit the market costing between $ 300 and $ 500-certainly far less than the $ 1,500 charged by the company to users who first adopted the Glass. However, the smart glasses are not the only device "wearable" that Google should launch in the coming months.
Watch. According to what reported the Wall Street Journal, smart clock, or "smartwatch clock", Google is in its final stages of development and the company is already in talks with suppliers in Asia to start mass production of the product, said a person familiar with the matter.
Google's watch must operate with the Android operating system and will be integrated into Google Now, smart personal assistant of the company who can answer questions, make suggestions and predict user needs based on their activities.
Google is also working to reduce the power consumption of the watch so that it won't be necessary to recharge the battery frequently, said the source of the WSJ.
Another sign that Google would be releasing their next clock is the purchase of WIMM manufacturer Labs, specializing in smart watches, for about two months.
The idea is to overcome the Galaxy Gear, "smartwatch clock" released by Samsung in September and fairly criticized for low duration of your battery, limited functionality and lack of compatibility with devices other than those manufactured by the South Korean brand.
