The position of team leader Google Glass project is now taken over by Tony Fadell, designer gadget ever worked for Apple. Fadell never helped Apple develop several products, one of which is an iPod that is managed successfully in the market. Tony Fadell, who joined Google since last year, is now immediately reset the development of Google Glass.
"Very few great things that can be done by Google Glass, so the reboot is expected to be much better," said Tony Fadell.
Reboot of the development is done because early generation of google glass failed to lure consumers, because its capabilities are considered to be quite weak. While the price is very high, which is about $ 1,500, Google Glass does not provide a lot of influence that help with daily activities.
Even the user receives some privacy ban because it is considered harmful when used in the public. Chances are if a reboot is done, then Google will launch this smart glasses as a new generation of the Google Glass 2.
