Google Glass 'version two' really is on the way
Summary:Google is working on a more user-friendly version of Glass with Italian eyewear company Luxottica.
Luxottica, the eyewear giant behind Sunglass Hut and Oakley sunglasses, is making a new version of Google's Glass.
The company's chief exec Massimo Vian confirmed on Friday that its deal with Google to make the company's networked eyewear is still active and will see a new version produced soon, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Google stopped selling Glass at the beginning of the year as it wound down the Glass Explorer program. It then moved the wearable experiment from its Google X research lab and into a unit headed up by former Apple exec Tony Fadell - who joined Google through its Nest acquisition - and former fashion exec Ivy Ross. Meanwhile, Google's Glass page indicates its Glass for Work program, perhaps the device's natural home, is still ongoing.
