Google has released a prototype of Project Astra’s AR glasses for testing in the real world. The glasses are part of Googles long-term plan to one day have hardware with augmented reality and multimodal AI capabilities. In the meantime, they will be releasing demos to get the attention of consumers, developers, and their competition.
Along with the the glasses, Google also announced their new operating system Android XR which will allow developers to build experiences for XR hardware like glasses and headsets. The OS will be powering the Project Atra Glasses along with the newly announced Samsung-built headset Project Moohan which will be for sale next year.
